TekTegrity Inc., a local company started by Russ Levanway and Jeremy Koellish, has responded to this problem by creating Priority Backup, an innovative new solution for data protection.

In today’s world it could mean the difference between the life and death of a company,” said Koellish.

TekTegrity has implemented a convenient data back-up systems using revolutionary technology that allows for secure and reliable backups, along with the ability to have all backups be automatically replicated off-site to a secure datacenter.

Priority Backup has the capability to store multiple backups of data so important files can be recovered if portions of them are accidentally deleted. “Whether they come to us, or go somewhere else, it is vital that all businesses have a backup system in place,” said Levanway.
