A Datto Case Study
ProMission Projects, a Boise-based managed IT provider serving manufacturing and other industries, faced a common challenge: clients squeezing more life from aging, end-of-life servers rather than replacing them. When a manufacturing client refused to upgrade its server farm the inevitable happened—a RAID failure threatened costly downtime—so ProMission recommended and installed Datto SIRIS as a business continuity safeguard.
When the server crashed, Datto’s monitoring alerted ProMission and they immediately virtualized the server off-site, launching a live Datto SIRIS image to keep operations running while a replacement was readied. The switch-to-VMware and image restore took minutes with no production interruption, saving the client tens of thousands in downtime costs and turning backup into a reliable revenue stream and peace-of-mind service for ProMission.
