case studies

The problem:

• Data was growing are a rapid pace since deployment of document scanning technology
• No enough resources to mange and oversee a backup system
• EVAULT provided a good solution, but at a premium cost.
• Contract with EVAULT was near expiration and client did want to commit to a another long term contract
• Client wanted a backup solution that allowed for an option for data recovery through disk or external drive to satisfy their fast recovery requirements.

The solution:

Advanced Vault recommended the VAULT 1000 appliance to provide Mr. Unger and his business a more comprehensive solution compared to EVAULT’s offering while achieving significant cost savings.

Mr. Unger and staff now enjoy the comfort of knowing that their data is automatically protected.  Also, they are practically impressed with the recovery speed Advanced Vault Appliance offers.

The problem:

• Backup was decentralized and inconsistent
• They did not have the budget to protect data at their remote offices
• Disaster recovery capabilities were limited, and replicating data often meant shipping media from site to site
• They had used multiple software applications to backup their data
• Window to backup their data grew from 6 to 8 and most recently to 12 hours, which was interfering with normal operating hours
• Growth was amplifying the problems. Datasets are increasing more than 30% annually

The solution:

After evaluating Homewell’s systems to understand both current issues and future requirements, Advanced Vault recommend the VAULT 2000 unit with remote replication capabilities as a solution to centralize and standardize backup/recovery processes across both the home office and remote offices, and eliminate tape backups.

Key differentiating benefits of the Advanced Vault service included speed, ease and the total cost of ownership. In just a couple of hours, Mr. Bistani implemented an efficient backup solution that met Homewell’s corporate needs of manageability, remote-office backup/recovery, and business continuance.

After a live demonstration, Homewell selected and deployed a company-wide Advanced Vault solution.

The problem:

• Ever since Cosmetic Laser Dentistry upgraded their entire system to become paperless, protecting their data has become critically important.
• With multiple offices and a decentralized IT staff, they would often not check on the status of their backup.  Backups would often fail, but not much attention was given to it.
• Their current tape based system was manual, prone to errors, did not offer protection against fire, hardware failure, water damage, theft or natural disaster since the kept most of the tapes in the same location.
• After one their applications got corrupted and they failed to restore from backup, it became a priority to find a better data protection solution.

The solution:

A colleague of Dr. Bouz was already enjoying the benefits of Advanced Vault and highly recommended contacting us for a free evaluation. The Advanced Vault team provided Cosmetic Laser Dentistry a full demonstration of how Advanced Vault appliances worked and fast they could restore their data.

Cosmetic Laser Dentistry choose to deploy the VAULT 1000 appliance at each of their locations and currently enjoy the security of reliable data backup.  Dr. Bouz and staff are big fans of the new solution as they no longer have to worry about losing their important data.
