Case Study: Cultech Limited eliminates ERP and SQL downtime with Condusiv Technologies’ Diskeeper

Cultech Limited eliminates ERP downtime and recovers 4 hours a day with Condusiv Technologies

Cultech Limited, a UK-based manufacturer of nutritional supplements, faced significant performance issues with its Sage ERP system running on an MS-SQL backend. These problems included daily system crashes, corrupted records, and sluggish performance, which required the IT manager to manually intervene multiple times a day. After a hardware refresh failed to resolve the issues, the company turned to Condusiv Technologies and implemented its Diskeeper software to address potential Windows file fragmentation and I/O inefficiencies.

Condusiv's Diskeeper solution provided a "set and forget" software that eliminated file fragmentation in real-time and used intelligent caching to offload I/O traffic. The results were immediate and dramatic; within 24 hours of installation, all system crashes and hiccups ceased. This eliminated the need for daily support calls and manual fixes, saving up to four hours of daily downtime. Cultech reported a 50% or greater improvement in application performance and was able to redeploy IT resources from firefighting to innovation.
