Backup & disaster recovery in Wiri
A backup is only worth something on the day you need it back. We set up copies of your Microsoft 365, servers and shared files, keep at least one where ransomware can't touch it, check every job and prove it works with regular test restores.
Onsite technicians cover Wiri. Most problems are fixed remotely first; when a job needs hands, a technician comes to you.
Backup & disaster recovery for Wiri businesses
Wiri is a major logistics and industrial zone south of Manukau, with large distribution centres, an inland freight hub linked to the rail network, manufacturers, transport operators and trade suppliers along Roscommon Road and the Wiri Station Road area.
Very large warehouses need Wi-Fi planned for big open spaces and high racking, robust cabling between the office, dock and yard, and networks that also carry CCTV, gate systems and truck tracking. Site offices often run around the clock with shared computers, so locked-down devices and individual sign-ins matter.
Every job reports to us. Failed or skipped backups are followed up the next working day, not discovered at the worst possible moment. Each quarter we restore something real, such as a folder, a mailbox or a whole server, time how long it takes and write the result into your recovery plan, so you know what a bad day would actually look like. If a test turns up a problem, such as a missing folder or a restore that takes far too long, we fix the setup and test it again.
Our technicians attend Wiri sites for warehouse Wi-Fi, cabling, CCTV and office IT, with day-to-day help delivered remotely. Large projects are surveyed and quoted in writing.
What's included
Microsoft 365 backup
Exchange mailboxes, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams files copied outside Microsoft's own retention, with point-in-time restores of single items or whole accounts.
Server and NAS backup
Image-level backups of onsite servers and file shares, so a failed machine can be rebuilt on new hardware or started in the cloud while it is replaced.
Copies ransomware can't reach
An offsite, versioned copy protected by separate credentials and deletion locks, so encrypting your network does not take the backups with it.
Laptop file protection
Desktop and Documents folders redirected to OneDrive and covered by the 365 backup, so a stolen laptop costs a device, not a year of work.
Daily checks
Every backup job is checked each working day. Failures, warnings and jobs that silently stopped are investigated and fixed, with the cause noted.
Test restores
A scheduled restore each quarter, timed and recorded, so the recovery time in your plan is measured rather than guessed.
Is it right for your Wiri office?
Talk to us about backup if any of these sound familiar:
- Your backup is a USB drive someone is meant to swap each week
- You use Microsoft 365 and have never set up a separate backup for it
- Your accounting or practice software sits on one server in a cupboard
- You can't say when a restore was last tested
- Your insurer asks whether backups are offline or immutable
How getting started works
- Free IT health check. We look at your devices, accounts, backups and network and tell you what we find, in plain English.
- Clear proposal. A written monthly price per user and a list of any fixes, with nothing hidden.
- Handover. We collect admin access and documentation from your current provider and keep your team working.
- Day-one fixes. Security gaps, failed backups and urgent risks are dealt with first.
Backup & disaster recovery in Wiri: questions
Can you run network cabling to a yard or gatehouse?
Yes, using outdoor-rated cable or fibre where there's a practical route, or a wireless link where trenching isn't sensible. It is low-voltage data work only, surveyed and quoted first.
How do we secure shared computers used by shift staff?
Each person signs in with their own account, the device is locked down to the apps they need, and it updates itself. That keeps shared machines working and traceable without slowing shift changes.
How much does backup cost?
Microsoft 365 backup is included in the Managed and Complete plans. Server, NAS and large data backups depend on how much data you hold and how quickly you need it back, so we quote them in writing first.
We already have a NAS. Is that enough?
A NAS is a good local copy for quick restores, but it sits on the same network and often uses the same passwords. It needs an offsite copy with separate credentials to survive ransomware, theft or a fire.
What is the difference between backup and disaster recovery?
Backup is the copy of your data. Disaster recovery is the plan and tooling to get the business working again after a fire, flood, theft or ransomware attack, including where people work and in what order systems come back.
Doesn't Microsoft back up our 365 data?
Microsoft keeps the service running and holds deleted items for a short period. It does not keep long-term, independent copies you control. A separate 365 backup covers accidental deletion, departed staff, account takeover and retention gaps.
