Case Study: Horizon Food Group reduces backup windows and speeds restores with ExaGrid and Veeam

Horizon Food Group reduces backup window by 85% with ExaGrid

Horizon Food Group, Inc., a food manufacturing and distribution company, faced a significant challenge with its outdated backup process. Its previous method of backing up to external hard drives was manual and inefficient, resulting in extremely long backup windows of 20 to 22 hours. This problematic system also made restoring lost files a difficult and time-consuming process for its small IT team.

The company implemented a backup storage solution from ExaGrid, which was integrated with Veeam software. This new system drastically reduced the backup window by 85%, from 20 hours down to just 3 hours. The solution also provided what the customer described as "blazingly fast" restores and offered exceptional, proactive support. The ExaGrid system provided peace of mind with its reliability and seamless offsite disaster recovery capabilities.
