We back up your Microsoft 365, servers, NAS, workstations and virtual machines, test restores every month and keep your data recoverable for up to 7 years, as part of our fully managed IT service.
Most small businesses think they have backup. Then a file goes missing, a laptop dies or ransomware locks a shared drive, and they find out what their backup actually covers.
These are the gaps we find when a new client asks us to check the backup they already have.
Their “backup” was just cloud storage syncing, which also syncs deletions and ransomware.
Nobody tested whether the backups actually restore, so the first real test happens during an emergency.
Recovery takes days, not hours, while staff wait and clients wonder what happened.
Their backup doesn’t cover email, Teams or SharePoint, which is where most of the business now lives.
Cloud storage (OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox) syncs files across devices. If a file is deleted or encrypted by ransomware on one device, that change syncs everywhere.
Cloud backup creates independent copies that aren’t affected by changes to the original. If you’re relying on OneDrive or Google Drive as your backup strategy, you don’t have one.
Our managed backup services for small businesses protect your email, your files in OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams, your servers and NAS, the files your staff keep on their own computers, and your virtual machines. Every backup is tested monthly and compliance-ready, restores critical files in minutes, and is supported by our Toronto-based technical team.
OneDrive, SharePoint, Exchange and Teams data. Microsoft’s recycle bin isn’t backup. Our backup keeps your data recoverable for up to 7 years.
On-premises servers and network storage backed up to secure offsite locations. Multiple recovery points, encrypted in transit and at rest. Monthly backup restore testing included.
User profiles and local files protected, especially for staff who save to the desktop or local folders despite your best efforts.
Azure VMs and virtual infrastructure protected with point-in-time recovery, so we can bring a server back to how it was before the problem started.
Every backup we manage comes with the same four protections. They are what turn a copy of your data into something you can count on.
We don’t just hope backups work. Every month we test file restoration and confirm your data is recoverable.
Multiple recovery points per day. Accidentally deleted something last week? We can get it back.
Data sovereignty and Canadian data centres for data residency requirements.
Data encrypted in transit and at rest. Your backup is protected from the same threats you’re backing up against.
These three terms get used as if they mean the same thing. They answer three different questions, and the right mix for your business depends on how long you can afford to be down.
Most small businesses need backup and a basic disaster recovery plan. Full business continuity (redundant systems, automatic failover) is typically overkill unless you can’t tolerate any downtime. We help you decide where your business sits, and we tell you plainly when the extra cost is not worth it.
The backup you need depends on where your data lives and which rules your industry follows. Find the description closest to your business.

“Incredible. That’s Adam. Found these guys on Google today and Adam was able to get our company server back up and running within an hour. Thank you so much.”
able to recover everything
“TUCU totally came through for our business when a mysterious “tech glitch” deleted all the data on one of our external hard drives. (One that was FULL of badly needed client data!!) They were able to recover everything from lost reports to images and even video. They were also able to recommend improved storage solutions for us moving forward so our client info would be safe. Fast service, and very affordable. THANK YOU TUCU!!!”
