Case Study: PT Pertani achieves 50% faster backups with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

NAKIVO Helps Agricultural Company Cut Backup Time by 50%

PT Pertani (Persero) is an Indonesian agricultural company (est. 1959) with a nationwide office network and an IT environment of physical servers and Hyper‑V/VMware VMs supporting ERP, Active Directory and industry applications. After suffering a ransomware incident and lengthy manual recovery, the company found its Windows/Hyper‑V backup tools produced oversized, unreliable backups, lacked tape support and scheduling, and required constant admin attention—prompting a search for an easy-to-deploy, verifiable, instant‑recovery and affordable VM backup solution.

PT Pertani installed NAKIVO Backup & Replication on a Synology NAS, enabling automated scheduled backups, replication, backup‑to‑tape, backup verification and network acceleration with fast web‑based management. Backups became about 50% faster (example: 40 GB in <30 minutes, ~150 Mbps LAN), large VM jobs dropped from 2–4 hours of manual work to about 1 hour automated, instant VM recovery reduced downtime, and overall admin effort and recovery confidence improved significantly.
