Case Study: Greater Anglia achieves continuous data availability and reduced backup costs with 11:11 Systems' Secure Cloud Backup for Veeam

All aboard! Greater Anglia embarks on cloud journey with iland, now 11:11 Systems, Secure Cloud Backup for Veeam

Greater Anglia, a major UK train operator undergoing a large-scale modernization of its fleet and wide area network, needed to move away from aging tape-based backups and secure its new Microsoft 365 investment amid rising cyber threats. With a lean 10-person IT team and growing demands for reliable remote access and scalable infrastructure, the company sought to reduce backup costs, eliminate manual tape processes, and protect critical data.

Greater Anglia implemented 11:11 Systems Secure Cloud Backup for Veeam Cloud Connect and Microsoft 365, replacing tape with cloud-based BaaS. The solution delivered continuous data availability, seamless Veeam integration, stronger protection against malware and ransomware, and freed IT resources to focus on strategic projects. It also enabled secure remote access, supported future cloud migration plans, and established a long-term vendor partnership.
