Case Study: M+R Forwarding achieves up to 30% TCO reduction and 3x backup data reduction with Druva

M+R Forwarding Hong Kong Limited reduces TCO by up to 30% with Druva, replaces Veeam and Veritas

M+R Forwarding Hong Kong Limited, the East Asia HQ for a global freight-forwarding group, supports 700 users, manages 60+ TB of data and 200+ Hyper‑V VMs across 30 regional offices. Fragmented backups (Veeam, Veritas, and tapes) created data silos, lengthy restores, administrative complexity and rising TCO, and the IT team could not centrally visualize or manage their distributed data protection.

To modernize backup and recovery they adopted Druva Phoenix (AWS‑based SaaS) for centralized, cloud-first protection of 200+ VMs via a single control plane, with global deduplication and forever‑incremental backups. The move eliminated secondary storage, backup software and tapes, cut TCO by 20–30%, reduced source data threefold for faster backups and restores, traded CapEx for centrally managed Opex, and freed about five full IT days per month.
