Case Study: Rush Memorial Hospital achieves simpler, secure cloud backup with Clumio

Rush Memorial Hospital - Customer Case Study

Rush Memorial Hospital, a community hospital in Indiana, wanted to modernize its backup and recovery approach as part of a broader move to the cloud. CIO Jim Boyer and his IT team were struggling with an on-premises backup system that was time-consuming, complicated, and expensive to scale, while also needing to protect sensitive healthcare data and meet HIPAA and retention requirements. They turned to Clumio Backup as a Service to find a simpler SaaS-based alternative.

With Clumio, Rush Memorial Hospital moved 30 TB of data to the cloud in just two days and eliminated the hours staff had been spending each week managing backups. Clumio’s fully cloud-based, air-gapped backup service gave the hospital seven years of retention, easier recovery, and stronger ransomware protection, while freeing IT to focus more on patient experience. Jim Boyer said the switch saved roughly five hours a week of employee time and greatly improved peace of mind.
