Case Study: Downies achieves centralized backup and disaster recovery with NAKIVO

Downies, a collectibles dealer in Australia, backs up Microsoft 365 data with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

Downies, an Australian family-owned collectibles dealer with multiple sites and virtualized Microsoft Hyper-V servers, needed a more reliable way to protect about 25 VMs and 70 Microsoft 365 mailboxes. Its old backup setup was outdated, required frequent maintenance, and often failed, putting business continuity at risk if systems were unavailable for too long. Downies turned to NAKIVO Backup & Replication for an all-in-one backup and disaster recovery solution.

NAKIVO implemented centralized backup to disk and tape, VM replication to an offsite disaster recovery site, and Microsoft 365 backup from one web interface. The result was faster recovery, simpler administration, and less monitoring overhead, with backups running more efficiently and production backed up every two hours. Downies also reported nearly 20% cost savings, along with major time savings and improved business continuity.
