We backup Google Drive
Absolutely, positively do.
Backup, backup and did I forget to say backup?
Google drive and the Google Shared drives are great tools, but we want a reliable backup.
1. We operate a Google Vault policy for auditing and e-discovery events.
2. We backup all data in the Google Shared drive independently of Google using our in-house storage systems.
3. We are human, we check backups are working and we do not restore anything without your approval.
​
4. We have a target of daily backups.
​
5. Self-audit backups are working by adding a special test file into shared folders, our system will send a email to you the next time it sees the test file.
​
6. Our service is self truncating to prevent run-away storage costs, we retain daily backups for 30 days, weekly backups for 6 months, 1st of the month for 2 years, then keeping 1st of every 3rd month there after.
​
7. Web portal access to our backup system, easy to grab a file or two, and FTP/SFTP account access to bulk download files and folders.
​
8. Google Drive objects that are deleted are kept in a online trashbin for 30 days before being removed permanently. If you didn't know something was deleted we have a backup copy regardless if it was a gsheet, gdoc or a plain old PDF or Microsoft Office document.
​
We create the Google Shared Drive folder you need and then share this with you or your team.
