Case Study: Town Office of Raymond achieves 12x faster VM backups and offsite disaster recovery with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

NAKIVO Enables a Municipality to Back Up VMs 12X Faster

NAKIVO helped the Town of Raymond, Maine, a small municipality managing critical public services and growing VMware infrastructure, replace a complicated, costly VM backup solution. The town, supported by Woodbrey Consulting, needed faster, reliable backups and easy scheduling to ensure rapid recovery of services like finance, GIS, email and VoIP if outages occurred.

By installing NAKIVO Backup & Replication as a virtual appliance, the town gained an intuitive web UI, forever-incremental backups with VMware CBT, and automated nightly jobs saving to NAS with offsite copy for disaster recovery. The result: backups run on average 12× faster (with many jobs completing in seconds and all under five minutes after the initial full backup), simpler management, and lower costs.
