What is this, in plain English?

A one-off remote configuration service: we set up automated backups of your databases, files and configuration to offsite cloud storage held in your own account — then perform a real restore to prove they work. No physical media, tapes or drives are involved.

You pay once and we configure it all remotely. A backup you have never restored is a hypothesis, so we set the schedule and retention, add failure alerting, then actually restore from a backup and give you the evidence in writing along with a documented restore procedure your team can follow.

The problem it solves

Backups are configured, probably. Nobody has ever tried restoring one.

If that does not describe you, this is probably the wrong product. Tell us and we will point you at a better fit rather than sell you the nearest one.

What you get

The concrete things that exist at the end and that you own.

How it works

The delivery sequence from order to handover.

  1. 1

    Identify what matters

    Which data would actually hurt to lose.

  2. 2

    Configure backups

    Schedule, retention and offsite destination.

  3. 3

    Add alerting

    You hear about a failed backup, not a failed restore.

  4. 4

    Prove it

    A full restore performed and evidenced in writing.

Delivery & fulfilment

Stream Edge Solutions ships nothing. Every package on this site is carried out and handed over remotely — this is exactly what happens after you order.

Carried out remotely by our team. Nothing is posted and no one visits. Typical turnaround: 3–5 working days.

Delivery method
Remote Setup
Expected delivery time
3–5 working days
Measured from the point everything under “what we need from you” is with us — not from the moment you pay.

Full detail of how work is handed over, what happens if requirements are outstanding and how order records are kept is in the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.

What we need from you

Nothing starts until these are in place, and the turnaround above is measured from that point — not from the moment you pay.

  • Administrative access to the systems to be backed up
  • A cloud storage account in your business name, or authority for us to recommend one
  • A decision on how much recent work you could afford to lose, which sets the schedule

Who this is for

  • Any business with data worth keeping
  • Organisations with untested backups
  • Businesses facing compliance requirements
  • Anyone who has had a scare

Business needs this addresses: Improve IT infrastructure

What's not included

Just as plainly as the list above: the things this package is not.

  • Backup storage fees, billed to your own account
  • Physical backup media of any kind — backups go to cloud storage you own
  • Recovery of data already lost before this setup
  • Ongoing restore testing after handover (included in support plans)

Anything outside the scope above is quoted separately, in writing, before it is carried out. Nothing is added to your bill without your agreement.

FAQs

How often should backups run?

It depends on how much work you could afford to lose. We will ask that question directly and set the schedule from your answer, rather than defaulting to daily because it is conventional.

Refund & cancellation

What happens if you change your mind, and what happens to money already paid.

Cooling-off before work starts
You have 7 days after ordering to cancel while work has not yet begun. Up to 25% may be retained to cover scoping and scheduling already carried out.
Work already done
Once delivery has started, refunds are assessed against the work completed and the deliverables already handed over — the list under “what you get” above is what that assessment is made against. Approved refunds are processed within 14 days.
If we cannot deliver what is described here
You are refunded. The scope on this page is the scope we are held to, which is exactly why the exclusions above are stated before you buy rather than after.

The full terms, item type by item type, are in the Refund & Cancellation Policy. How the work reaches you is covered by the Delivery & Fulfilment Policy.
