Case Study: Vienna Insurance Group achieves faster backups and restores with ExaGrid

Vienna Insurance Group cuts backup windows from 24+ hours to 2 hours with ExaGrid

Vienna Insurance Group (VIG) Polska, a major insurer in Poland, faced significant challenges with its backup infrastructure, including slow restore performance that once took nearly three weeks and an inability to complete backups within a 24-hour window. To address this, they tested and implemented ExaGrid's tiered backup storage solution integrated with Commvault.

The ExaGrid solution resolved the performance issues, reducing the backup window from over 24 hours to just 2 hours and providing restore speeds six times faster than the previous system. The implementation also bolstered security with features like Retention Time-Lock for ransomware recovery. This measurable improvement led VIG Polska to standardize on the ExaGrid-Commvault solution across multiple sites.
