"A server or technology outage can mean your business will be without its data, e-mail, and the ability to communicate for extended periods of time. Businesses in fact are so dependant on their systems the PriceWaterHouseCoopers estimates that 90% of all companies encountering a computer " disaster" with no pre-existing survival plan go out of business within 18 months."
