Case Study: Fuss & O'Neill reduces backup times with ExaGrid

Fuss & O'Neill cuts backup times from 4 days to 1 with ExaGrid

Fuss & O'Neill, an east coast engineering firm, faced significant challenges with its outdated and unreliable tape-based backup system. Managing backups across five locations was cumbersome and time-consuming, with full backups taking up to four days. The company sought a disk-based solution to streamline its processes and chose ExaGrid's tiered backup storage system for its ease of use, scalability, and strong data deduplication technology.

By implementing ExaGrid's solution, which integrated seamlessly with their existing Veritas Backup Exec application, Fuss & O'Neill dramatically improved its backup operations. Full backup times were reduced from four days to just one. The IT team now spends 90% less time managing backups and has experienced highly reliable nightly jobs. The ExaGrid system's scalability also allows for future growth and enhanced disaster recovery capabilities.
