Almost all of us tend to take our digital data for granted until the day we lose it. While such incident is somewhat tolerable at a personal level, at a business level such it can be very devastating to your business, can cause you to dissipate your resources in the form of time, energy, repair costs, and lost revenues, can make work stressful for you and your employees, and cause dissatisfaction to your customers. Data and settings loss or damage can happen for tons of reasons; the following are real incidents that happened to real customers of ours causing them to go through the painful process of recovering their data:
Causes of System Problems:
- Viruses
- Hardrive failure or Hardware failure. (even if a drive is under warranty, you are still responsible for the data)
- Power outage corrupts a database (Can even happen to SQL Server)
- Natural disaster occurred which damaged your onsite data storage.
- A system admin deletes important information on the production machine.
- A staff member decided to make changes to your system without having the proper training or the assistance of our IT department causing the system to crash or stop working properly.
- Malicious intent by an employee.
If you have experienced any of these situations, chances are that it caused you a great deal of distress in addition to the material damage in the form of data and settings loss which translates into revenues loss, and incurred repair expenses. For businesses such as yours, you rely on your point of sale system to:
Results of System Problems:
- Process transactions and manage payments.
- Track and monitor your payroll.
- Input, update, and control inventory.
- Create, update, and manage a database for all related stakeholders including employees, customers, and suppliers.
- Keep record of reports of sales, taxes, payroll, auditing, inventory, etc for various purposes such as accounting, payroll processing, ordering and reordering, etc.
The in depth analysis of what you really lose:
Accordingly, you come to realize that to protect your system from such incidents and to avoid the stressful time, energy, and money consuming repair process and its unforeseen consequences, you need to protect both your system settings and your system database.
Your system settings and configuration are in most cases unique to your business and the business model you adopt. They convert the pos software from its standard state to the current state that enables you to manage your daily operations according to your business model. Loss of settings will bring your business back to the earliest stage of running POS-based operations.
Thus, you will be required to reconfigure your settings from scratch which implies the waste of your valuable time and energy into this process, the loss of revenues caused by the inability to process transactions or the recourse to an outdated method such as cash register or manual transactions recording, the loss of credit card revenues, and the dissatisfaction of your customers during the repair process.
In addition to the settings, your business relies on its database. Your database includes but not limited to, menu, prices, discounts, sales history, taxes history, payroll history, employees information, customers information, suppliers information, etc. The loss of that data, combined or not with the loss of the system settings will disable your business, interrupt your daily operations, and cost you in terms of repair and lost revenues. On another hand, while settings can be reconfigured regardless of the amount of time, energy, and resources dedicated for the process, database loss is never completely recoverable for the following reasons:
- First, transactions history is not recoverable, whether it is sales, taxes, purchases, inventory, payroll, or similar type of data. You cannot remember what you sold yesterday, and even if you do imagine the amount of time you will be spending doing so. Losing such data has several implications in terms of doing managerial accounting, financial accounting, or tax accounting.
- Second, the recoverable part of your database is the part that deals with recording your employees, customers, and suppliers. To a certain extent, this part cannot be completely recoverable either for that it will imply having access to every employee you ever hired, every customer you ever served, and every supplier from whom you purchased.
Unfortunately, despite the importance of protecting our data at the individual level as well as at a business level, we always forgo that importance and take our data for granted until the day we lose it and realize the real impact of such thing happening.
The Good News:
Fortunately, avoiding this messy situation has never been easier or more affordable with our data protection program which enables you to safeguard your settings and database!
