SURVEY
SUMMER Edition
T
his comparative matrix was com-
piled directly from responses to a
questionnaire sent to disaster recov-
ery and business continuity vendors.
DRJ publishes this survey to assist
readers in making the necessary
decisions when selecting an alter-
nate site. An alternate site selection
process only begins with examining the survey.
Each vendor provides unique capabilities which
must be matched with your company’s require-
ments and compliance for business continuity
and/or recovery. The most important step is dis-
cussing your needs with a representative from
those companies that interest you.
