The Hidden Risk of Manual Backups

The Hidden Risk of Manual Backups

How Automation Gaps Create Business Continuity Threats

Why Manual Backup Processes Fail:

  • Time-Intensive: IT teams spend hours weekly on manual export processes
  • Inconsistent Execution: Backup schedules frequently slip during busy periods
  • Versioning Challenges: Manual file naming creates confusion and errors
  • Human Error: Accidental overwrites or deletions of critical backups
  • Incomplete Coverage: Only selected workflows get backed up, creating blind spots

The consequences are severe: when disaster strikes, outdated or missing backups lead to extended downtime, knowledge loss, and costly redevelopment of critical automation processes that directly impact your operational efficiency.
