Case Study: RDV Corporation achieves 66% shorter backups and faster restores with ExaGrid and Veeam

RDV Corporation cuts backup windows by 66% with ExaGrid

RDV Corporation, a family office, faced significant challenges with its previous backup solutions, Dell EMC Avamar and a Tegile array. These systems were difficult to use, resulted in long backup windows, and provided slow, complicated restores. The company sought a new solution and was introduced to ExaGrid by their vendor, ultimately choosing the ExaGrid system to work with their Veeam backup application.

The implementation of the ExaGrid solution resulted in a 66% reduction in backup windows, bringing the full backup time down from nine hours to just three. Restore speeds were described as "phenomenal," with an entire server being restored in only three minutes. ExaGrid's support team was also instrumental in assisting with a major site re-architecture, ensuring no data loss during the transition. The ExaGrid system provided the combined benefits of fast restores and efficient long-term retention storage.
