Case Study: MBO Amersfoort achieves fast, centralized data recovery with Commvault

MBO Amersfoort Achieves Data Management Excellence with Commvault and SPIE

MBO Amersfoort, a community college in the Netherlands serving over 7,000 students, was struggling with a fragmented and unreliable backup environment that made restoring critical files and Microsoft 365/Active Directory data take days. Working with Commvault and SPIE, the institution needed a centralized, compliant data protection approach that would improve recovery speed, control, and support its educational mission.

Commvault implemented a modern centralized data protection platform tailored to MBO Amersfoort’s Microsoft 365 environment and regulatory needs, with hands-on workshops and training from SPIE. The results were significant: recovery times dropped from days to just 5 to 10 minutes, graduation files could be restored quickly and reliably, and the IT team gained full control while reducing operational costs and strengthening compliance.
