What We Offer

Comprehensive solutions tailored for Houston-area businesses

Exchange Online Backup

Automated daily backups of every mailbox, calendar, and contact in Exchange Online. Houston businesses restore individual emails or entire mailboxes to any point in time with NinjaRMM and Dropsuite.

SharePoint & OneDrive Protection

Every document, version, and permission in SharePoint Online and OneDrive is backed up continuously. The Woodlands companies recover accidentally deleted files, folders, or entire site collections in minutes.

Teams Data Backup

Teams channel conversations, shared files, and meeting recordings are protected independently of Microsoft retention. Spring businesses recover Teams data even after users delete channels or leave the organization.

Point-in-Time Restore

Granular recovery lets you restore a single email, a specific document version, or an entire mailbox to any date. Katy businesses eliminate the guesswork of finding the right version after accidental changes.

Ransomware Recovery

When ransomware encrypts or deletes Microsoft 365 data, Dropsuite and NinjaRMM backups provide clean restore points outside the blast radius. Houston companies recover without paying ransom or losing data.

Compliance & Legal Hold

Retain Microsoft 365 data beyond Microsoft native retention limits for regulatory and legal requirements. Sugar Land businesses in regulated industries maintain backup archives for years with searchable recovery.

Microsoft Does Not Back Up Your Data

Microsoft operates Microsoft 365 infrastructure but explicitly states that data protection is the customer responsibility. Native retention is not a backup and cannot recover from ransomware or accidental bulk deletion.

Instant Granular Recovery

Restore a single email, a specific SharePoint file version, or an entire OneDrive account in minutes. No support tickets, no multi-day waits, no partial recovery.

Ransomware Resilience

Backups stored outside your Microsoft 365 tenant are immune to ransomware that compromises admin accounts. Houston businesses recover clean data regardless of how severe the attack.

Protection Against Human Error

Accidental deletions are the most common data loss scenario. Point-in-time restore recovers data that falls outside the Microsoft recycle bin retention window.

Compliance-Ready Retention

Maintain backup copies for regulatory retention periods that exceed Microsoft native capabilities. Audit-ready logs document every backup and restore operation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Microsoft 365 need a separate backup solution?▼

Microsoft maintains infrastructure uptime but states in its Shared Responsibility Model that data protection is the customer obligation. Native tools like litigation hold and recycle bins are not backups—they have limited retention windows, cannot recover from ransomware across admin accounts, and do not provide point-in-time granularity.

What backup solutions does LayerLogix use for M365?▼

We deploy NinjaRMM and Dropsuite for Microsoft 365 backup. Both platforms provide automated cloud-to-cloud backup with granular restore capabilities for Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams data.

How often is Microsoft 365 data backed up?▼

Backups run automatically multiple times per day. Exchange mailboxes are backed up every few hours, and SharePoint and OneDrive changes are captured continuously. Houston businesses can restore to recent points in time without significant data loss.

Can we restore a single email or file without restoring everything?▼

Yes. Granular restore lets you search for and recover individual emails, calendar items, contacts, files, or folder structures without affecting other data. This is the primary advantage over Microsoft native recovery tools.

How long are backups retained?▼

Retention periods are configurable based on your compliance requirements. Standard configurations retain backups for 1-7 years. Houston businesses in regulated industries like healthcare or energy can extend retention to meet HIPAA or SEC requirements.

What happens if our Microsoft 365 admin account is compromised?▼

Backups stored in NinjaRMM and Dropsuite are separate from your Microsoft 365 tenant. Even if an attacker gains Global Admin access and deletes data, backup copies remain intact and recoverable from outside the compromised environment.

How quickly can we recover from a ransomware attack on M365?▼

Point-in-time restore from before the attack allows recovery of clean mailboxes and files within hours rather than days. Houston businesses resume operations faster than organizations relying solely on Microsoft native tools.
