“Backing up data is just like insurance; you hope you never need it. The problem is, unlike insurance, in which you just write a check, backing up data in your dental office is a daily event. I always said you need one more backup than you have, and one better be off-site at all times. DDS Rescue provides my office with automated and verified hourly backups along with the necessity of off-site data storage. It is not just backing up data; it is imaging the entire server. If, for any reason, you need your backup restored, it is as simple as a phone call and in about 10 minutes you are back up and running.
During Hurricane Sandy while I was worrying about more important matters, I got an email informing me that my cloud-based server backup was available to my office if needed. This was proactive on the part of DDS Rescue. So in the middle of a natural disaster, I had one less thing to worry about.
Data is uninsurable, yet it is the lifeblood of your practice. Losing your office data is a catastrophe that can be avoided by using a backup system such as DDS Rescue.”

“I use DDS Rescue in my practice because it provides the very best down-time and disaster recovery protection available.”

“I sought out DDS Rescue based upon the recommendation of a trusted colleague. It was clear to me that the company understood my needs when they emphasized that their goal is to keep my practice running fluidly in the event of a server crash, facility loss, or from the recent increase in loss of data due to malware. Other vendors speak in terms of days or weeks to get me back up and running. DDS Rescue speaks in terms of minutes. No more worry about misplacing tapes or portable hard drives either. I highly suggest having the free security assessment offered through some dental dealers before experiencing a catastrophic data loss.”

“We had to get a new server and of course you never think with a brand new server you would ever go down right away. We got the new server up and running, DDS Rescue was installed and a week later the server went completely down. I called our IT guy and he said DDS Rescue should be able to take over. I was in panic mode because we had already been down 30 minutes at that point. We were down about an hour and a half all together from the first moment I knew it crashed until DDS Rescue got us up and running. We ran on DDS Rescue for two weeks. There was never a glitch or a problem, it just switched right over. We didn’t lose any data. And every time I called they were real quick to help me and then they would call me to let me know that everything was OK. That’s what I really liked about it. They were my security blanket. When the new server arrived the transition back from DDS Rescue was just as easy, actually easier because we’d already gone through it once. About 12 years ago we lost one of our servers but we didn’t have DDS Rescue. A cleaning lady took a vacuum cleaner and vacuumed over one of the servers and scrambled all of the data. We were without the server for 9 weeks. We didn’t know our schedule or anything for 9 weeks. We only recovered 80 percent of our data. After that incident when we heard about DDS Rescue we knew we had to get it. If people don’t want to spend the money they’re crazy. We’ve had a really bad experience and now we’ve had a really good experience. We don’t have anything but good things to say about them. They saved us.”

“Personally and professionally, I have nothing but great things to say about DDS Rescue. Everyone is very professional! I appreciate the availability and personal touch given especially when Kai may see something is not right via their monitoring. Quick response times and very easy to work with. Install was easy and pain free. Dr. Vostatek and I are confident in their abilities to keep our information safe and backed up. Thank you all for your services!”
