Case Study: exTerra Services achieves near-instant VMware VM recovery and 70% storage savings with NAKIVO Backup & Replication

NAKIVO Helps an IT Services Company Recover VMware VMs in Minutes

exTerra Services s.r.o., a Prague-based IT services firm specializing in virtualization, server support and outsourcing, needed reliable VM backup to ensure 24/7 availability for its own operations and customers. Their previous tools only supported file-level restores, required manual full-VM recovery that took hours, and were difficult to deploy and manage, so the company sought an easy-to-use, affordable solution that could recover entire VMware VMs quickly.

They deployed NAKIVO Backup & Replication to perform daily VM backups with global deduplication and instant VM recovery. The new solution reduced backup storage needs by about 70%, completes a full backup of 19 hosts in roughly eight hours with much faster incrementals, and lets IT boot or recover full VMs in minutes—cutting backup administration time to less than half and making the product a recommended option for their customers.
