Why Store Data Offsite?

Millennium Records Management can help you understand the risks to your data, and make it easier to address your corporate responsibility in regard to information security and disaster prevention. Working with us, you can benefit from a more disciplined approach to off site storage.

Computer equipment keeps getting better, but hardware and software failures still account for nearly three quarters of all business interruptions. If you take the time to consider the true cost of a disaster to your business, you may find the numbers frightening.

And there’s more. Shareholders, aggressive in their pursuit of high returns, will demand reimbursement from those accountable following a disaster that impacts their stock price. A very real threat of prosecution exists for those who fail to meet their fiduciary responsibility to protect the corporate assets by ignoring formal disaster recovery planning.

As your off site storage provider, Millennium relieves you from the details of record keeping and transport. Our staff, not yours, becomes fully accountable for the protection and 24/7 access of your company‘s critical data. We function as an integral part of your information security routine--a third party responding consistently on a scheduled basis much like UPS or the US Postal Service--with retrieval of your valuable back up tapes. On a routine basis, our service staff closely monitors the consistency of your company‘s data safety routine and immediately brings potential problems to your attention. We are the specialists in off site data storage that give your staff the freedom to be more productive.

The more data you create, the more you depend on it. Insurance doesn’t prevent loss. However, off-site data storage does. Millennium Records Management will ensure that your backup records are instantly accessible, yet safe from a disaster on site.

A recent industry study shows that 96 percent of companies sustaining major damage to their computer centers do not survive beyond five years. Of businesses suffering a major fire loss, 69 percent failed to survive beyond three years. Despite an increasing reliance on computing and telecommunications in nearly every aspect of business, many corporations play against the odds, fooling themselves into believing that disaster can’t happen to them. But those odds get greater against them every day.
