Today, we focus our blog about online backup on the state of Louisiana and particularly on the real estate industry. If you are a real estate broker in Louisiana, you are required to retain most of your administrative files for a period of five (5) years according the Louisiana Real Estate Commission.
If, we’d like to say that their web site was one of the easier sites to research record retention rules. Here is a link the actual PDF you’d want to review if you needed to find out more http://www.lrec.state.la.us/pdf_files/46v67.pdf.
Given that there is concern about the flood waters and we are about to enter into hurricane season, we think people living in the Pelican State should seriously consider online backup for their electronic files. Watch our short video that describes the benefits of online backup versus traditional storage media.
Since we know everyone is cost conscience right now, here are a few points that address the financial aspects of online backup:
1. You DO NOT have to invest in major capital expenses. You’ll just receive a monthly bill for the storage space you use.
2. If you have a Blackberry, iPhone or HTC smartphone device, you’re probably paying as much monthly for that phone as you would to backup your entire real estate form – just to draw an immediate comparison most people will understand.
3. Filetwin is a U.S. based company with ALL of our customer support specialists located here in the United States.
