Every MSP has that one story. You know the one – it's usually told over late-night coffee or shared in hushed tones at industry conferences. It's the backup disaster that almost became a career ender, the restore that refused to cooperate at 3 AM, or the client who somehow managed to delete their only backup copy during a critical moment.
Well, we decided to turn up the lights in the server room and share some of these spine-chilling tales. In our latest collaboration with our friends at Comet Backup, we recorded "Tales from the Backup Crypt" – a special Halloween-themed session where we swapped real IT horror stories from the MSP trenches.
When Backups Go Bump in the Night
The collaboration between Magnus Box and Comet Backup wasn't just about scaring each other with disaster stories. It was about recognizing that these "horror" moments are actually incredible learning opportunities that make us better MSPs. Every nightmare scenario teaches us something valuable about preparation, communication, and the importance of robust backup strategies.
Watch now for spine-tingling stories, MSP wisdom, and backup lessons that may just save your bacon next time!
