ITBusinessEdge: Business Continuity For SMBs
Paul Mah blogs about the basics of business continuity for SMBs – how to use technology to ensure your business can carry on in the event of disaster. A bullet-proof data backup plan is essential. Deploying laptops and remote email access can also help.
“I started the ‘Eight IT Projects for SMBs’ series in February, and have positioned it to help SMBs in eight different facades of technology. This week, I want to write about maintaining business continuity, which remains a crucial business topic especially in the light of recent natural disasters and how evolving technology continues to shape the options available to SMBs.
As workable solutions vary widely depending on the nature of business, relative size and the financial health of a company, I will be steering away from actual deployment suggestions. Instead, I will present a trio of ideas for today that can better position small- and mid-sized businesses should disaster ever hit.”
