## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-04 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Short version up front: a fully remote team usually has no datacenter to fail over, so "disaster recovery" here means three different things - your SaaS data, your laptops, and your cloud infrastructure. Buying a classic DRaaS product when you don't run VMs is the most common mistake. Here's what I'd actually name, in order:
> 
> **1. Afi.ai - SaaS backup for Google Workspace / Microsoft 365 (start here)**
> For a remote team this is the highest-value purchase, because your real crown jewels are Drive, Gmail, SharePoint and Teams, and neither Google nor Microsoft keeps a recoverable copy after retention windows lapse. Afi is built for mid-size orgs and MSPs, with full-text search across backups, instant preview, and clean per-item restore. Roughly $53/mo per user territory with a five-user minimum, so price it before you commit.

> 
> **2. Backupify (Datto/Kaseya) - the low-maintenance alternative to Afi**
> Longest-standing name in Google Workspace cloud-to-cloud backup, stores into Datto's own cloud, and is the better pick if you want it to run unattended rathe
