ing an alternative site. The survey is not intended to give you all
the criteria to select a site, but rather to determine which may be
the best suited to your company’s needs.
Questions include coverage of location,
power sources, computer equipment, tape
drives, processors and data and voice lines.
SURVEY
Disaster Recover Journal publishes five surveys per year on
a variety of business continuity topics. Our policy is to edit the survey
information to meet our guidelines. We neither evaluate nor rate any of
the participating vendors’ products or services. Our goal is to maintain an
independent view while sharing information to assist our readers in making
successful, well-informed decisions. Contact the vendor directly for further
information on any product or service listed in one of our surveys.
In addition, information on mobile sites, cold sites and office
work space is provided.
To be included in next year’s alternate
site survey, contact DRJ at (636) 282-5800
or e-mail drj@drj.com to be placed on our
questionnaire mailing list.
