The DBSi Advantage
Agreements
At DBSi, we believe in common sense business relationships, defined by terms and conditions that are mutually beneficial, designed to foster long-term relationships and lead to a successful outcome for the services contracted. To us, this seems like common sense. Unfortunately, in the disaster recovery, managed hosting and data center services industry, this is more the exception than the norm. DBSi builds relationships on cooperation and understanding, not on draconian dictates and harsh penalties. This is the foundation upon which you can place one of the most critical components of your business your IT infrastructure. We write common sense agreements that are in the best interest of our clients-not our stock price. Whether a long term or short term agreement, our agreements are designed to serve our clients, reduce risk, and ensure your success. A few examples are:
- An ability to reduce service levels and the associated fees during the term of the agreement
- Fixed rates during the life of your contract, providing a predictable and consistent cost structure
- Addenda that do not require contract extension
These are just some of the benefits you get from DBSi’s common sense approach to agreements and business relationships.

The Real Cost
of Downtime
Failure of business critical services can cause a devastating loss of money. According to a 2001 Merrill Lynch/McKinsey report, each hour a business spends “down” can cost from $14,000 to $6.5 million, depending on the industry dollar amounts that are downright conservative by 2007 standards.
Once inflation and the increased prevalence of the Internet are factored in, the numbers could easily range from $25,000 to $10+ million per hour.
