Case Study: City of Davenport achieves simpler, lower-cost cloud backup with Clumio

City of Davenport - Customer Case Study

The City of Davenport, Iowa, needed a backup strategy that could protect critical data for more than 100,000 residents across 34 facilities and multiple agencies without consuming too much time, money, or staff attention. CIO/CTO Cory Smith wanted a cloud-native solution that was simple to manage, scalable, and capable of handling growing data sprawl, but the alternatives he evaluated were complex, clumsy, and resource-heavy.

Clumio provided the City of Davenport with an authentic SaaS backup service for VMware and virtualized SQL, eliminating the need for additional hardware, software, and day-to-day backup management. With Clumio, the city offloaded backups to the public cloud, improved security and compliance, and reduced backup infrastructure costs by one-third while freeing the IT team to focus on higher-value work.
