Disagree on “host your own”. Use a business cloud instead of a consumer one if you’re worried about reliability of backups.
I’ll use Microsoft as an example since that’s what I’m familiar with:
- Users store personal files in OneDrive (stored on their device, automatically synchronized)
- Shared files in Sharepoint or Azure File Share
- Enable Azure backup of the file share, or use a cloud service that runs Veeam for you (iLand, etc) to backup your Office 365 environment (including Sharepoint and OneDrive)
The founder is the “IT person” usually, and they don’t need to worry about running backups. That’s a recipe for “hey I need this file restored” followed by “oops our backups haven’t run for 9 months” (seen this first hand, far too often).
