Case Study: University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust achieves predictable backup costs and faster backups with ExaGrid

University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust reduces backup windows by 95% with ExaGrid

The University Hospitals Bristol NHS Foundation Trust faced challenges with costly maintenance cycles on its legacy backup system and a desire to better virtualize its environment. The public healthcare organization needed a solution that offered deep integration with Veeam software and predictable capital expenditure to allow budget to be redirected to patient care.

The trust implemented ExaGrid's tiered backup storage solution. This provided a scalable architecture with a no-obsolescence model and a price guarantee, which kept future capital expenditure predictable. The results were significant, including a 95% reduction in backup windows, a 25% reduction in time spent on backups by IT staff, and cost savings that were redirected to healthcare applications. The ExaGrid system also enabled the organization to meet or exceed its backup SLAs consistently.
