Backup gap assessment

Do you know what you can recover, how fast, and from where?

Answer eight practical questions to identify backup and recovery gaps across Microsoft 365, employee endpoints and servers. Get a clear readiness score, your priority gaps and practical next steps.

A successful backup is not the same as a successful recovery

Backup plans drift as users, applications, devices and servers change. A job can complete successfully while critical data remains outside the plan, retention no longer matches business needs, or recovery times have never been tested. This assessment helps expose those gaps before an outage, deletion, device loss or ransomware incident puts recovery under pressure.

Microsoft 365 and SaaS data

Check whether business-critical cloud data is protected beyond native retention and recycle-bin options.

Employee endpoints

Identify local data on laptops and desktops that may be missing from centralized backup plans.

Servers

Review coverage for the files, volumes and systems that keep the business or client environment running.

Recovery controls

Evaluate restore testing, recovery objectives, retention, backup access and ransomware recovery readiness.
