Choosing A Data Recovery Company: What You Should Know
|
The key to choosing a data recovery company is to actually leave yourself time to make a choice. That means early recognition that a data recovery problem is beyond your immediate control. Be wary of claims that seem to be outside the limits of reality, because you could be vulnerable to a pitch just when your system is down and you need the help right away.
Make sure you find a company that has clean room support. If they have the sterilized facilities to work directly on damaged media, then they will have the capability to do all the physical procedures necessary to recover data.
A high price is not always an indication that you're dealing with a high-end company. In fact, it has happened that intermediate-level companies will take advantage of a serious data incident to ask for and receive premium prices. A good company should also be 'operating system agnostic'. In other words, they can work on any kind of software. If they specialize in Windows, for example, it is because they bought the whole suite of Windows recovery applications and mastered them.
At Michigan Data Recovery, we have done enough long-distance work to know that being within the same area code and time zone makes life easier for everyone. Even though this is a 24 x 7 business, physical proximity makes for faster logistics and better communications. The Internet may have eliminated time and distance in some business processes but in data recovery, being there is still better.
There are still many areas that fail to provide full service laboratories in the United States and Canada. Make sure that if you are shipping your media via courier that the company you are dealing with has both a clean room, as well as an actual full service laboratory. Many companies are simply single individuals with websites working out of their basements testing out software. You do not want your important business information to be in the hands of an amateur.
Again, make sure you do your research prior to sending your media anywhere. It's not worth the risk.
