Business Backup & Recovery in Twin Falls
When ransomware hits, when a server crashes, when a flood damages your office — your backup is what gets you back in business. Total Techs deploys tested, ransomware-resistant backup solutions for Southern Idaho businesses. We back up your servers, M365, line-of-business data, and we test it regularly.
Backups That Actually Work When You Need Them
The dirty secret of business backup: most backups don’t work when they’re needed. Either nobody tested them, the backup software stopped running months ago, ransomware encrypted the backup files too, or the restore process takes 10 days when the business needs to be back in 24 hours.
We do backup differently. Cloud-based, immutable backups that ransomware can’t touch. Monthly restore tests so we know they work. Documented recovery procedures so when something goes wrong, we restore in hours — not days. And we back up the things businesses forget: M365 mailboxes and SharePoint, virtual servers, line-of-business databases, configuration files.
Backup is part of our managed IT, or available as a standalone service for businesses with internal IT.

What You Get
Cloud Backup
Off-site, immutable cloud backup. Your data is replicated across multiple data centers. Ransomware can’t encrypt it. Fires and floods can’t destroy it.
On-Site Backup
For businesses with lots of data, an on-site appliance speeds restores. Combined with cloud for redundancy — best of both worlds.
Microsoft 365 Backup
Email, OneDrive, SharePoint, Teams chats — backed up separately from Microsoft’s own systems. Recover accidentally deleted items, surf back to specific dates, restore after attacks.
Server Image Backup
Complete server images — not just files. If a server dies completely, we restore the whole thing (OS, applications, data, configs) to new hardware in hours.
Monthly Restore Testing
We don’t just back up — we verify the backups work. Monthly test restores. Documented results. You see proof your backups are good.
Recovery Documentation
Step-by-step recovery runbooks for your specific environment. So if something goes wrong, anyone on our team can restore — not just the one person who knows your setup.
How It Works
Assessment
We identify all your critical systems and data — including the obscure stuff businesses often forget.
Backup Design
We design the right backup approach: cloud, on-site, or both. Daily, hourly, or continuous depending on the data.
Deploy & Verify
We install backup agents, configure schedules, and verify the first complete backup succeeds.
Monthly Testing
Every month, we test-restore something. You get a report. We know it works when you need it.
Common Questions
QHow much does business backup cost?
It depends on how much data you have and how much you need backed up. As a rough range: $50-$300 per server per month for cloud backup of typical small business servers. M365 backup runs $3-$5 per user per month. We provide custom quotes based on your environment.
QHow long does a full restore take?
Depends on what’s being restored. A single file: minutes. A user’s mailbox: 30-60 minutes. A complete server: several hours for the system, longer for very large data sets. We document expected recovery times for your environment.
QWhat if our backup software gets compromised by ransomware?
Our cloud backup uses immutable storage — once a backup is written, it can’t be modified or deleted by anyone (including ransomware). Even if attackers gain admin access to your network, they can’t touch the backups.
QDo you back up to local USB drives or NAS?
We don’t recommend it as the only backup. Local backups can be encrypted by ransomware, damaged by fire/flood, or stolen. We use them as part of a 3-2-1 strategy: 3 copies, 2 different media, 1 off-site. The off-site is always cloud.
QWhat about businesses with HIPAA or compliance requirements?
Our backup solutions are HIPAA-compliant when configured for healthcare clients. We provide BAAs (Business Associate Agreements), encryption at rest and in transit, audit logs, and documentation for compliance audits.
