Case Study: inMusic achieves rapid data recovery and simplified, centralized backup management with Barracuda Networks

Barracuda Backup Saves the Day and the Data

inMusic Brands, the world’s largest DJ equipment manufacturer made up of nine hardware and software companies, faced an urgent backup crisis: their tape library was slow, unreliable and ultimately failed, leaving them with long restore times, limited IT resources, and a need for cloud replication and centralized multi‑location management.

They replaced tape with Barracuda Backup appliances (including a next‑day Barracuda 890), gaining an all‑in‑one, low‑maintenance solution with cloud replication and centralized remote management. Installation was fast, daily tape tasks were eliminated, and a bare‑metal restore recovered 1.5 TB and a failed RAID in nine hours. The result: saved IT time, reliable offsite copies, easy multi‑site control, and the purchase of additional Barracuda units.
