'Performing a backup' is the process of copying files (or databases) so that they will be preserved and available to restore your system in case of equipment failure or other catastrophe.
Access Control plays a vital part at a self storage facility. Just like StorMan's range of self storage management software manages your customer records, access control software manages your customer's access to their goods.
These elements of a self storage faiclity rely heavily on having a fully working system 24/7 with minimal down time.
PTI access control software is very user friendly and provides easy-to-follow instructions for performing a backup. To do so, use the tools provided in your Help menu within the PTI software application.
PTI Australasia highly recommends that you copy this backup file onto an external hard drive or USB stick and kept somewhere safe; preferrably off-site (be sure to read a great story about the importance of backups in Andy's blog).
If you have any questions or are unsure how to perform a backup, please do not hesitate to contact PTI Australasia on +61 7 3216 5524 and ask for Steven Rose or Benjamin Parsad; we are only a phone call away or alternatively contact our approved installers - they will be more than happy to assist you.
