CASE STUDIES
Selecting DRaaS: Taylor Porter's Journey to a Stronger IT Stance
understand how good a fit DRaaS was for the firm. From there we proposed the
concept to our Technology Commiee and began finding providers that we felt
could execute technology well-fied to our needs.
How did you get buy-in from your firm's leadership?
Gaining buy-in is never easy. Whether you are building and maintaining a
DR solution you own or proposing DRaaS, you are talking about a significant
investment. To demonstrate the need for DRaaS, we ran a lot of "what if "
scenarios for our management teams. We also looked at the additional
staffing needs required to handle building and maintaining a new solution.
Lastly, we asked, "How would you continue to service your clients if we had
an outage that lasted longer than a few hours?" Combining these helped our
management teams understand not only the significance of disaster recovery
but also the need for us to partner with a solution provider that could help us
execute in a time of disaster.
