Case Study: Stage2Data achieves rapid revenue growth and 45% productivity boost with Cohesity

Replacing Rubrik with Cohesity Improves Stage2Data Top and Bottom Lines

Stage2Data, a Canadian cloud services MSP, needed a more flexible, secure multitenant data management platform to expand its BaaS, DRaaS and NRaaS offerings, integrate VMware vCloud Director, speed VM recovery, and support new services without being locked into specific hardware. After finding Rubrik limiting for these goals, the company sought a partner that could support multiple use cases, improve SLAs and help accelerate customer acquisition.

Stage2Data replaced Rubrik with Cohesity’s multi-cloud data management platform and Helios management, enabling rapid integration with vCloud Director, support for VMware and Microsoft 365, and flexible hardware sourcing. The move delivered measurable gains: more sales in three months than the prior four years, a 45% boost in staff productivity, roughly 75% lower CapEx, 20–25% better compression/dedupe, stronger ransomware protections, and an expanded service portfolio and international footprint.
