Welcome to Praura!

Praura is the only subscription based solution for managing your company’s everyday business risk.
Praura blends proven document management and archival functionality with basic disaster recovery and business continuity features to ensure that your information is secure, easily accessible and infinitely controllable.

The Praura concept was designed to be a viable infrastructure solution for today’s small and mid-sized businesses. At Praura, we were concerned that small and mid-sized businesses had to spend a disproportionate amount of money to achieve the same quality infrastructure as larger firms. We realized that this meant a huge percentage of businesses simply chose to operate without a safety net or misuse other technologies (such as email).

We set out to design a solution that pulled together much of the functionality found in many different products into a single platform. We decided that this platform should be subscription based for four reasons:

1. Businesses will need to keep costs down while supporting a more widely distributed and mobile workforce in the future in order to remain competitive.

2. Small and mid-sized businesses, especially those no in-house data center, needed a single solution that carried only nominal costs to protect their business information.

3. It is becoming increasingly important for small and mid-sized businesses to have access to simple tools that help them manage more outsourced and offshore work.

4. Professional services firms relied too heavily on email and needed a secure way to exchange data and documents with their staff and clients.

With this in mind Praura began to assemble a complete solution for today’s businesses. Did we try to include all of the functionality in the largest enterprise solutions? No, of course we didn’t. We believe that small and medium sized businesses wouldn’t purchase an enterprise solution even if they could afford it. This reflects the reality that many of these products have evolved to the point that they now include so much functionality as to render them nearly unusable for the typical business.
