Case Study: MC-Bauchemie achieves near-zero downtime and unified data protection with Arcserve UDP

MC-Bauchemie ensures data integrity through agility, safety and strategic positioning

MC-Bauchemie, a German-headquartered building chemicals company with about 300 employees in Brazil and operations across 35+ countries, faced growing data volumes and unreliable tape-based backups as it expanded its sales and digital processes. Frequent backup failures and a 1.5-day outage exposed the need for a faster, more reliable contingency plan to protect critical R&D and business data while meeting SLAs and budget constraints.

After a 4-month evaluation, MC-Bauchemie deployed Arcserve UDP Premium across 30 servers (with plans for notebooks), protecting roughly 25 TB of data. Implementation took one weekend with a 45-day validation; deduplication shrank backup size, unified management reduced staffing needs, dashboards improved visibility, and recovery times fell to near-zero downtime—restoring data integrity, meeting SLAs and freeing storage and IT time.
