BCDR – A Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Plan

Avoid the Worst with an Integrated BCDR Strategy

No organization is immune to a major outage, ransomware, a data breach, or an internal failure. What you can control is your ability to recover. A BCDR (Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery) strategy acts as a safety net: a set of preventive and responsive measures designed to ensure business continuity and rapid recovery of operations.

With Alpha Suite, Datto solutions are integrated into a broader approach that combines backup, recovery, IT governance, and security—strengthening your organization’s resilience.

Recovery costs following an incident have doubled, rising from approximately $600 million to $1.2 billion in just three years. This reflects the impact of every unanticipated outage or vulnerability and highlights the need for a structured BCDR plan.

The ABCs of BCDR

An effective, well-structured Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plan is built on three pillars:

1.
Automated cloud backup

with offsite replication

2.
Ultra-fast, complete recovery

covering systems, applications, and data

3.
A proven continuity plan

validated through regular testing and clear documentation

Datto: A Turnkey Solution Focused on Recovery

Developed by the IT giant of the same name, Datto is well recognized in the MSP (Managed Service Provider) community for its strength in image-based backup, instant virtualization, and full recovery. Its key advantage: an “appliance + cloud” approach that enables accelerated recovery in the event of a disaster, even if the primary server is lost.

Key benefits:

  • Unified, user-friendly interface
  • Image-based backup every hour
  • Cloud recovery in just minutes
  • Proactive monitoring

Datto excels in fast, secure recovery. Within Alpha Suite, it becomes an essential component, integrated into a broader framework of operational continuity, IT governance, and proactive security.

According to an Elevate MSP study (2024), companies using a Datto solution reduce downtime by an average of 87% after a major incident.
