Case Study: Torrance Casting achieves minutes-level recovery and true business continuity with Axcient Business Recovery Cloud

Torrance Casting Turns To Axcient To Replace Legacy Data Protection Solutions

Torrance Casting, a La Crosse, Wisconsin manufacturer managing a partially virtualized IT environment of over 200 devices and 2.5 TB of data, faced unreliable tape and disk backups that failed to complete, bogged the network, and left the company without off-site protection—exposing it to costly downtime and long recovery times. IT Manager Lisa Smith needed a resilient business continuity solution to protect critical systems like the ERP server and domain controller.

She deployed the Axcient Business Recovery Cloud for local and cloud protection, instant failover, and office virtualization across physical and virtual systems. The switch cut RTOs from days to minutes, ensured RPOs were met, enabled a fast recovery of a crashed domain controller, minimized employee downtime, and added regular DR testing and improved support.
