Case Study: Arquitectonica achieves fast, reliable data recovery with BackupAssist

BackupAssist transforms backup and recovery experience for architectural firm Arquitectonica with its set-and-forget software

Arquitectonica, the Miami-based architectural firm with offices around the world, needed a durable and reliable way to back up and recover 4 to 5 terabytes of data generated each day across its hybrid IT environment. Its previous system, Symantec Backup Exec, was cumbersome and made it difficult to restore older backups, while growing recovery demands and eDiscovery requests increased the pressure on IT.

BackupAssist, implemented and managed by XIT Global, provided automated, “set and forget” backup and recovery that kept files in their native format for seamless restores. With BackupAssist, Arquitectonica cut recovery time from months to just hours, gained quick restores from the local SAN, and added CryptoSafeGuard ransomware protection; the firm also reports successful ransomware test attacks twice a day and no full data loss since deployment.
