Case Study: Belhasa International achieves full data protection and lowers costs with Acronis Backup Advanced

Belhasa International Protects All Data and Lowers Costs with Acronis

Belhasa International, a Dubai-based family-run conglomerate with more than 10,000 employees across 40 locations, struggled to protect distributed systems and manage backups as it expanded. The company needed centralized backup management, both local and remote copies, and a way to avoid costly dedicated connectivity between offices, so it selected Acronis and its Acronis Backup Advanced solution to address those needs.

Acronis (with partner FixIT Computer Technologies) implemented a hybrid cloud backup strategy using Acronis Backup Advanced, consolidating initial site backups to secure cloud storage and providing a single management console. The deployment eliminated the need for direct office-to-office links, reduced Recovery Time Objective (RTO) by 50%, met RPOs for each business unit, slashed data communication costs, and helped Belhasa meet its five-year IT objectives while enabling restores from backups or running backups as virtual machines.
