Case Study: ASGCO achieves reliable, scalable backups with ExaGrid Tiered Backup Storage

ASGCO extends backup retention to 16 weeks with ExaGrid

ASGCO, a manufacturer of conveyor solutions, was struggling with an unreliable tape-based backup system that frequently failed, leading to missed backup windows and requiring significant IT management time. To resolve these issues, they turned to ExaGrid and implemented its Tiered Backup Storage system with Adaptive Deduplication, which integrated with their existing Veritas Backup Exec application.

The ExaGrid solution provided a smaller storage footprint through efficient deduplication, allowing ASGCO to increase its data retention from four weeks to sixteen weeks. The installation was simple and management is now minimal, with backups completing consistently every night. The scalable architecture also ensures the system can easily grow to meet the company's future data needs.
