DRIVING FACTORS

Increasing Dependency on Devices and Smart Gadgets for Storage of Data to Accelerate Market Growth

Increased scope for digitalization has increased the dependency of organizations and individuals on gadgets and smart devices to store data rather than in physical form. Increasing use of smart phones, laptops, computers and tablets have further increased the risk of data theft. With the growing prevalence of data loss, the demand for data recovery services is increasing gradually.

Data recovery services not only protect the computer data but also duplicate it in order to ensure that the data is not lost once again in case of any problems. Due to hardware or software failure bulk data can disappear from the device all of a sudden. In such cases these services recover, restore, and also transfer the recovered data into a different location. Growing investments of business organizations on a good data recovery service is accelerating market growth and development.

Increasing Threats to Data Due to Malwares, and Viruses to Propel Market Growth

Hardware and software failures are not the only reason for loss of data. In certain cases, data can be destroyed or can get misplaced due to the presence of malwares, and virus. The number of hackers has increased recently creating threat to important data. All of these factors have increased the need to install data recovery services.

Data is an important asset for any company and it must be protected at all costs. Misuse of important data can create a bigger problem. Data recovery softwares also help in easily managing the data that is restored. Replication functionality of these services enable the companies to create replicas of data that can be stored in a highly protected place. All of these factors are propelling the data recovery services market growth.

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Permanent Loss of Data in Case of Physical Damage to Devices to Bring Down Market Growth

Even though data recovery softwares are efficient in retrieving data they cannot always be trusted. In certain situations, the data that is lost cannot be retrieved at all. This reduces the efficiency and reliance of customers on this service.

In case if physical damage is inflicted upon a device, there would be no way to retrieve the data that is lost even with the help of recovery services. Some recovery services are very weak and are not capable of creating a strong backup. All of these factors can have a negative impact on market growth and development.
