Cloud-based backup removes the risk of on-site disasters taking out your data protection. Axio Networks designs, deploys, and manages cloud backup and DR solutions for Scottsdale businesses.
Most Scottsdale businesses have “a backup.” Far fewer can answer the questions that matter: how quickly could we be running again after a ransomware attack, a fire in the server closet or a deleted Microsoft 365 mailbox? Is the backup somewhere the attacker cannot reach? When was the last time anyone actually restored a server from it? The answers are usually discovered during the outage.
Axio Networks designs cloud backup and disaster recovery around recovery objectives rather than storage: how much data you can afford to lose (RPO) and how long you can afford to be down (RTO). Backups run to immutable cloud storage, are verified every business day by an engineer, and are tested with real restores — so the plan works when it is needed.
Your data is backed up automatically on a defined schedule with configurable retention policies — no manual steps required.
We regularly test your backups to confirm they actually work. Most businesses never test until it is too late.
Data replicated to geographically separate locations so a local disaster cannot take out both your primary systems and your backups.
Backup copies are written to storage that cannot be altered or deleted for the retention period — even by an administrator account — so an attacker who encrypts your network cannot encrypt your recovery.
Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams data backed up independently of Microsoft, so deleted mailboxes, departed employees’ files and ransomware in OneDrive are recoverable months later.
For critical servers, a full copy that can be booted in the cloud within hours, plus a written recovery runbook your team and ours follow — who calls whom, what comes up first, how users reconnect.
We map every system and data set to a recovery-point and recovery-time objective agreed with you — not every workload needs the same protection.
Local appliance plus immutable cloud copies for servers, direct-to-cloud for Microsoft 365 and endpoints, retention set to meet compliance requirements.
Every job is reviewed each business day; failures are fixed the same day and screenshot-verified boot tests confirm servers actually start.
Quarterly restore tests and an annual DR exercise prove the plan; the runbook is kept current as your environment changes.
Recovery-first design. Axio Networks starts with how fast you need to be back, then builds the backup that delivers it — the reverse of most “install and forget” deployments.
Verified by people, every day. Automated alerts are not enough; backup jobs fail quietly. An engineer reviews every client’s backup status each business day.
Compliance ready. Retention, encryption and offsite copies satisfy HIPAA, cyber-insurance questionnaires and client due-diligence requests, with reports to prove it.
Local response. When a restore is needed, a Scottsdale-based engineer is on it within our under-30-minute average response — and on site if hardware must be rebuilt.
Only for a short window. Microsoft provides service resilience, not long-term backup; deleted items age out of the recycle bin, and a departed employee’s mailbox is removed when the license is. Independent Microsoft 365 backup keeps a copy you control.
Servers and critical data are typically backed up every hour or more often, with copies sent to the cloud daily or continuously. The schedule is set by your recovery-point objective — how much work you can afford to redo.
With cloud failover in place, critical servers can be booted in the cloud within hours and users reconnected remotely. Without it, recovery depends on replacing hardware first, which can take days.
An immutable backup cannot be changed or deleted for its retention period, even by an administrator. It is the single most effective protection against ransomware that targets backups before encrypting production systems.
Backup monitoring and management is part of Axio Networks managed IT plans; cloud storage and disaster-recovery capacity are sized and priced for your environment.
