Case Study: Tax Edge achieves fast, reliable VM backups and disaster-recovery readiness with Altaro VM Backup

Colorado tax firm is ready for any data loss eventuality thanks to altaro VM backup

Tax Edge, Inc., a Colorado-based accounting firm, was struggling with an aging IT infrastructure and failing backup software after multiple acquisitions left 900+ GB of client data at risk. Sr. Systems Engineer Jeff Baber needed a fast, reliable disaster-recovery solution without a costly full server rebuild.

They upgraded servers, virtualized on Hyper-V and deployed Altaro VM Backup, which delivered fast, incremental backups (every four hours), offsite replication with deduplication, automated verification and easy granular restores via a Cloud Management Console. The firm achieved shorter backup windows, longer retention (from one to three weeks), storage and cost savings that avoided hardware upgrades, and greater confidence in recovery backed by 24/7 support.
