Case Study: LEAF Commercial Capital, Inc achieves near-real-time disaster recovery and lower costs with Evolve IP's DRaaS

LEAF Commercial Capital Prepares for the Worst with Best-in-Class DRaaS Technology

LEAF Commercial Capital, a Philadelphia-based national equipment leasing and finance firm with over 250 employees across three U.S. offices, faced an outdated tape-based disaster recovery process that was slow, costly, and vulnerable to human error and hardware failure. The IT team needed a hosted, scalable DR solution that provided near real-time recovery, geographic redundancy, lower upfront and ongoing costs, and minimal administrative overhead.

LEAF implemented Evolve IP’s DRaaS, replacing tapes with an active-active, geo-redundant cloud replica and automated failover/failback. Recovery time shrank from days to minutes with near-real-time RPOs, administrative burden and capital expenses were eliminated, and IT staff were freed to focus on strategic initiatives—while compliance and reliability (SOC 2/3, bicoastal redundancy) gave LEAF confidence to move additional services to the cloud.
