Case Study: Gifford Medical Center achieves fast, scalable backups with ExaGrid and Veeam

Gifford Medical Center backs up data in 5-50 minutes with ExaGrid

Gifford Medical Center, a critical access hospital in Vermont, needed a reliable and scalable backup solution for its data. The hospital's IT team, led by server administrator Sheila Hopkins, required a system that could handle backups within short windows and easily accommodate data growth. They implemented a backup storage solution from ExaGrid, which was used in conjunction with Veeam software.

The ExaGrid system provided a scalable and low-maintenance solution. It enabled dramatically shortened backup windows, with incrementals for virtual machines completing in 40-50 minutes and for physical servers in just five minutes. The hospital also benefited from the straightforward scalability of the ExaGrid appliances and the dedicated support from their assigned ExaGrid engineer, who provided guidance on best practices. This resulted in a highly reliable, "set-it-and-forget-it" backup environment for Gifford Medical Center.
