In today's digital landscape, data is the lifeblood of business operations. As a Managed Service Provider, you're not just managing IT infrastructure – you're protecting your clients' most valuable assets. But have you ever stopped to calculate the real cost of data loss? Let's dive into why robust backup solutions are crucial for business continuity and your MSP's reputation.
