Case Study: Panasonic achieves scalable, secure endpoint backup with CrashPlan for Endpoints

Panasonic cuts backup storage costs to zero with CrashPlan

Panasonic, a diversified global technology company, faced significant challenges in managing its endpoint data backup. Their existing on-premise setup was expensive and complex to manage across different business groups and geographies. They struggled with a lack of centralized control over data access, disparate solutions, and poor integration with Active Directory. Seeking a secure and cost-effective strategy, they turned to vendor CrashPlan and its CrashPlan for Endpoints solution.

CrashPlan implemented its SaaS-based CrashPlan for Endpoints, which leveraged Panasonic's existing OneDrive for Business storage for a zero-cost backup data repository. This provided a unified, scalable solution with industrial-strength encryption and centralized policy management. The results included eliminating storage costs, achieving seamless Azure Active Directory integration for streamlined user management, and gaining powerful governance tools to protect against unauthorized data access. Panasonic benefited from significant cost savings through the flexible licensing model and now has a future-proof, centrally managed backup strategy they plan to expand across their global organization.
