Case Study: Randall County, TX achieves fast, reliable data recovery and cost savings with Arcserve UDP appliances

Local governmental agency protects critical data with Arcserve UDP appliances

Randall County, Texas, a local government agency of about 300 employees that maintains critical court, tax and administrative records, was struggling with an aging tape backup system. With more than a dozen servers, 300 workstations and nearly 800 TB of physical and virtual data, the IT team faced long recovery times, daily manual monitoring and rising costs — creating risk for essential public records and services.

The county deployed two Arcserve UDP 7300 appliances, which were plugged in and running full backups the same day. The solution cut backup management time dramatically, enabled near‑instant file recovery, reduced tape and contract costs, and gave the IT staff greater confidence (leading to an additional Arcserve purchase and recommendations to peers).
