Case Study: Davies Collison Cave achieves 60% boost in employee efficiency and eliminates backup delays with Pure Storage

Davies Collison Cave Turns to Pure Storage to Achieve Growth

Davies Collison Cave (DCC) is Australia’s largest intellectual property law firm with more than 300 staff. The firm was suffering from slow storage that caused long application and search delays (including Microsoft Outlook and document management), nightly backups that froze systems and disrupted work, and rising staff frustration that was hurting productivity.

DCC and partner Huon IT replaced the legacy storage with a Pure Storage FlashArray across all workloads, delivering immediate improvements: overall employee efficiency rose 60%, full-text searches dropped from 12 to 3 seconds and case searches from 16.5 to 7 seconds, backups no longer impact users, IT maintenance time fell by 75%, rack space was reduced and the physical installation took just two hours.
