Case Study: Buren achieves 4X faster VM backups and instant file recovery with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

Law Firm Switches to NAKIVO and Boosts VM Backup Speed by 4X

Buren is an international corporate law firm headquartered in The Hague with offices in Amsterdam, Luxembourg, Beijing, and Shanghai. Facing growing volumes of confidential client data stored on Hyper‑V VMs, the firm’s legacy tape‑based, physical‑machine backup process was slow, error‑prone, and unable to meet 24/7 availability and legal/privacy requirements—backups could take days and heavily taxed IT staff. Buren needed an easy‑to‑manage VM backup solution with forever‑incremental capabilities.

Buren deployed NAKIVO Backup & Replication on an existing Synology NAS, gaining forever‑incremental VM backups, global deduplication/compression, and instant file recovery. The switch delivered a 4X increase in backup speed, freed storage space for more recovery points, eliminated extra backup hardware, and enabled minute‑level file restores—reducing administration time and improving reliability while the firm plans to add offsite replication.
