aleno Back-up: Your data secure and accessible

In this article when explain how we back-up your data and how you can access these data, e.g. in case of disruptions or delays in the main aleno system.

Why do I need a backup system?

In the dynamic world of hospitality, every second counts, and despite our best efforts, technology can sometimes hiccup. That is why we run our own Backup System. It’s our safety net for those rare instances when the main aleno system experiences disruptions or delays. Your data won't be lost and remain accessible. 

The Backup System is hosted in its own environment, independent of the infrastructure and any disruptions of the main aleno system. It allows you to view and download your shift data for a given day, directly from a backup server. The data is always current to within a few minutes. 

 

How can I access my aleno data, i.e. reservations?
