Case Study: LifeWay Christian Resources achieves fast, reliable mobile data protection and rapid restores with Code42's CrashPlan

Executives and content creators stay productive and mission-focused, even while mobile

LifeWay Christian Resources, a leading publisher and retailer of Christian products headquartered in Nashville, faced the challenge of protecting large volumes of executive and content-creator work across laptops, smartphones and tablets without slowing creative workflows or burdening non-technical staff. IT needed an automated, cross-platform backup with cloud access, Active Directory integration, end-to-end encryption and an easy mobile app to support highly mobile employees.

LifeWay selected Code42 CrashPlan with a hybrid cloud deployment; rollout was quick and administration minimal. The solution delivered fast, reliable restores and anywhere access—examples include a 120 GB restore over Wi‑Fi completed in six hours and a dramatic case where a 600 GB recovery that once would have taken weeks now takes minutes—giving executives mobile access to critical files, reducing IT crisis time and providing peace of mind that core intellectual property is protected.
