Case Study: Evalueserve achieves 55% shorter backup windows and ransomware‑proof data protection with Commvault

Evalueserve ensures data availability and security with Commvault

Evalueserve, a Switzerland‑based global analytics and consulting firm of 4,000+ experts, handles sensitive client data across applications like Microsoft Dynamics, SQL, SharePoint and Active Directory. Facing unreliable disk‑and‑tape backups across two Indian sites, long backup windows, manual tape handling and the risk of ransomware, the company needed a faster, more secure and compliant way to meet agreed RPOs/RTOs.

Evalueserve deployed Commvault Complete Data Protection to encrypt backups, automate processes and centralize management, replacing tape workflows and enabling deduplication. The result: backup windows cut by 55% (from 36 to 16 hours), SQL backups reduced from nine to two hours, overall backup/restore performance improved ~50%, restoration drills completed 57% faster, storage needs fell ~50% (eliminating ~250 tapes annually), and administrator backup time dropped from 18 hours to 45 minutes per day—delivering regulatory compliance and strong ransomware protection.
