Case Study: Claddagh Commission achieves near-instant restores and 50% faster full backups with ExaGrid

Non-Profit Leverages the Power of ExaGrid and Veeam for Fastest Possible Restores and Recoveries

Claddagh Commission is a nonprofit serving adults with developmental disabilities since 1977, providing residential, day, nursing and supportive services. The organization struggled with slow restores and time-consuming tape management from its prior online and tape backups—full backups could take up to 48 hours—and was concerned about rapid recovery in the event of a disaster.

By deploying ExaGrid with tight Veeam integration, Claddagh moved to disk-based backups with post-process deduplication and a cached landing zone that enables Veeam Instant VM Recovery. The result: the full backup window was cut to 24 hours, restores became near-instantaneous, ongoing management was simplified, and the GRID architecture and dedicated support engineer provided scalable capacity and greater confidence in recoveries.
