Products and Services BRS & IDX Tech Partners Tech Tips About Us
“Stratus Unplugged is an invaluable tool when I’m out of the office. With clients, I can quickly satisfy their curiosity with listing information about houses we drive by instead of telling them, "I'll look it up back at the office". They are very impressed with the level of service I provide. I get instant property records on FSBO'S and the full color photos of homes are great. Unplugged is easy and simple to use.”

Make Sure You Backup Your Files

Leigh Goldblatt, MLS Technician

It’s happened to everyone when you accidentally delete an important file or contact from your computer. Or the horrible feeling you get when you realize your computer will never boot up again. This is why it’s so important to have a backup copy of all your important files and information.

With most new computers today coming with writable CD and DVD drives (CDRW\DVDRW), it makes sense to have an updated copy of your files. Computers also come with easy to use software with a simple backup option and blank CD’s and DVD’s are fairly inexpensive.

If you prefer not using CD’s and DVD’s to backup your files, another option is using the built in USB ports on your computer. This allows you to back up to many different types of drives such as a flash drive or a portable hard drive.

No matter which method you choose, it is important to back up your files and frequently. It is also a good idea to keep a copy off premise so in case your office or home is damaged by flood or fire and your files are destroyed at that location, you have an off site copy to restore from.
