Case Study: American Datacenters achieves 50% client cost reduction and improved VM data protection with NAKIVO

NAKIVO Enables Service Provider To Improve VM Data Protection Levels while Cutting Costs for Clients by 50%

American Datacenters, a US data-center services provider for SMBs, manages about 50 ESXi hosts and over 500 client VMs, many running legacy Windows servers and specialized vertical apps. Customers often lacked virtualization expertise, and legacy backup products were agent-heavy, complex, and expensive per server, leaving many small businesses underprotected or stuck on outdated solutions.

After evaluating options, American Datacenters adopted the multi-tenant NAKIVO Backup & Replication for its simplicity, agentless design, and affordable licensing. The move cut end-user licensing costs by roughly 50%, saved at least three hours per installation, and—through the NAKIVO Cloud Provider Program—allowed the company to offer a monthly per-VM Backup-as-a-Service that improves protection and recovery while keeping clients current on support and features.
