Why Small Businesses Turn to Carbonite and Its Partners

Running a small business is hard work and, most times, very chaotic. From overseeing daily operations to building marketing plans and forging new partnerships, a small-business owner has lots of things to worry about. Backup shouldn’t be one of them.

Carbonite’s suite of cloud and hybrid backup solutions are designed specifically to help small and midsize businesses protect their critical data and recover from any disaster. That’s why so many small businesses turn to Carbonite Partners for their data protection needs.

“Carbonite really seems to care about our data and keeping it safe,” said Winn Davis Brown, an attorney and founder of the Southaven, Miss.-based Winn Brown Law Firm. “I think that’s great.”

Protection from Ransomware

One of the biggest reasons businesses choose Carbonite and its partners is to protect critical data from ransomware and other computer viruses.

Just ask Adam Stroud, the Information and Technology Support Director at Sleep & Wellness Medical Associates in Hamilton, N.J. When a slow-moving ransomware virus infected some of the IT systems at the medical practice, Stroud fought back by deleting all of the infected files and restoring clean versions from Carbonite’s cloud backup service. The whole process was quick and painless. “I’m glad Carbonite was there,” he said.

Support for HIPAA Compliance

Medical, dental and insurance practices also choose Carbonite backup because it supports their efforts to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Carbonite supports HIPAA regulations and can provide a Business Associate Agreement to customers who are subject to the federal law.

“Backing up your data in a safe, HIPAA-controlled environment is crucial,” said Dr. Peter Dana of Watertown Dental in Massachusetts. “That’s one of the reasons why I chose Carbonite.”

Automatic Backup

Sandler Dickson, a long-time real estate agent from Tallahassee, Fla., is very happy with Carbonite because it’s easy to use and it continuously backs up his computer in the background, without him having to think about it.

“Once you set up your backup, you don’t have to be concerned,” he said. “You know it’s going to be there.”

Powerful Backup for a Great Price

Carbonite Partners help their business customers do more for less, no matter what type of business it is.

“You can’t put a price on having your files backed up properly,” said Michael Mercurio, Vice President of Falcon Construction in Boston. But Mercurio appreciates the budget-friendly cost of Carbonite. “There are so many benefits to Carbonite. Honestly, we rely on it every day.”
