Case Study: Genesee Community College boosts backup capacity and disaster recovery with ExaGrid

Genesee Community College backs up 5X more data in the same window with ExaGrid

Genesee Community College faced challenges with its costly and difficult-to-manage tape-based backup system, which resulted in slow data recovery times. The college needed a more efficient and scalable solution to handle its growing data. They selected ExaGrid's tiered backup storage system to replace their outdated tape infrastructure.

By implementing ExaGrid's scalable storage solution, Genesee Community College was able to back up five times more data within the same backup window and increase its retention period from 5 to 12 weeks. Restores that previously took days were reduced to minutes. The solution also provided seamless integration with their preferred backup applications and expert support for configuring a new offsite disaster recovery site. ExaGrid delivered significant performance improvements and enhanced data security for the college.
