Case Study: Datastore365 achieves improved service, lower costs and scalable backup infrastructure with Asigra

Datastore365 Delivers Good Service, Price, and Scalability with Asigra and Huawei Solution

Datastore365, a UK enterprise-class managed service provider running VMware vCloud from datacentres in Maidenhead and Milton Keynes, was struggling with mixed vendor hardware that left its Asigra-powered backup vault near capacity and causing performance and management issues. The company needed a secure, highly available and scalable storage solution that stayed cost-competitive so it could continue offering attractive pricing to customers.

Working with distributor Zycko, Datastore365 implemented the Huawei Symantec Oceanspace N8300 clustered NAS alongside its Asigra Cloud Backup platform; the three-month deployment and data migration delivered vendor‑stated high availability (99.999%), independent scalability of capacity and performance, and simpler management. The result: reduced operational overhead (freeing a staff member for development), improved performance and resilience, lower costs that support competitive pricing, and confidence to expand into additional VM hosting services.
