Managed backup

Managed backup for business continuity and recovery

Protect Microsoft 365, server and cloud workloads with managed backup planning connected to monitoring, retention, recovery, continuity and wider IT support.

About This Service

What we do and how we do it

Managed backup brings Microsoft 365, server and cloud workload protection, monitoring, retention and recovery planning into an ongoing service conversation.

J700 supports businesses in Lancashire, Greater Manchester and across the North West, with remote and onsite support as required.

It helps when backup responsibilities are unclear, Microsoft 365 or cloud data protection needs review, server backups are not being checked or recovery planning is separate from the wider IT environment.

How it is delivered

Understand workloads and recovery priorities, agree retention and monitoring around the selected backup approach, then keep review and support connected to continuity and security priorities.

Common Challenges

What we help you resolve

  • Unclear backup responsibility

    Bring backup requirements and ownership into a more visible technology conversation.

  • Microsoft 365, server and cloud gaps

    Review how each workload fits into the organisation's protection priorities rather than assuming one backup covers everything.

  • Unreviewed backup activity

    Connect monitoring and review with the agreed backup scope so failed or incomplete jobs can be investigated.

  • Recovery planning in isolation

    Connect retention and recovery decisions with continuity, access and the wider managed environment.

What Is Included

Service capabilities

  • Microsoft 365 backup

    Consider mailboxes, files and collaboration data separately from the availability of the Microsoft 365 service.

  • Server and cloud backup

    Review relevant physical, virtual and cloud-hosted workloads around the agreed business requirements.

  • Monitoring and review

    Monitor the agreed backup jobs and investigate exceptions without claiming that every recovery outcome can be guaranteed.

  • Retention planning

    Set retention around business, operational and any verified regulatory requirements rather than using an arbitrary period.

  • Recovery priorities

    Connect protection choices with the data and systems the organisation would need to restore.

  • Continuity and resilience

    Treat backup as one part of wider continuity and disaster recovery planning, not a complete continuity plan by itself.

How We Deliver It

Our process

  1. Understand the workloads

    Review the business data, servers, cloud services and Microsoft 365 environment that need consideration.

  2. Set protection and retention priorities

    Agree what matters most, how long relevant backups should be retained and how those choices connect with continuity requirements.

  3. Configure and monitor

    Implement the agreed approach and monitor the backup jobs included in the service scope.

  4. Review recovery readiness

    Revisit recovery priorities and the wider continuity plan as systems and business requirements change.
