I restore the backup to a test system(so yes a duplicate database) then I test a series of .Net apps

As a DBA you want to make sure that when the SHTF you can get the systems back to working within an agreed SLA

I would strongly recommend an image backup every month with daily incremental image backups - disk space is cheap and rebuilding systems is expensive.

Another tip - if you are not running this all on a virtual machine, ensure that the SQL Server install is on a different disk to the software accessing it(this will further ensure its integrity and speed up access).

I take it there there is one central instance of an SQL Server rather than an instance on each workstation.

If there is one central instance then try to get it off the OS drive(probably the C: drive) so that disk access is not competing between OS calls and SQL Server calls - does that make sense?

Is there any solution in Sqlserver or ssis or .NET solution to identify Generic Columns of excel(xls) and map to Sqlserver Table correctly.
