Case Study: Branch Manufacturing achieves 60% VMware backup cost reduction with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

NAKIVO Enables Manufacturer to Reduce VMware Backup Costs by 60%

Branch Manufacturing, a precision parts supplier with a fully virtualized infrastructure running SQL, Exchange, AD, ERP and CRM systems, relied on mission‑critical VMs to meet customer demands. Their first‑generation VM backup tool was unreliable—frequent failures required manual intervention—and the IT team needed a simpler, more dependable solution to reduce administration time and ensure business continuity.

With guidance from Nexus, Branch deployed NAKIVO Backup & Replication—a VMware‑focused solution offering changed block tracking, compression, multi‑threaded processing and unified backup/replication. After implementation, backups became consistently successful, VM backup efficiency improved, management overhead dropped, and the company reduced its virtualization data protection costs by 60%.
