Case Study: Redfin keeps cloud-based data safe with Spanning Backup

Redfin protects 1,000 employees’ cloud data with Spanning

Redfin, an online real estate brokerage, faced the risk of data loss within its critical Google Workspace applications. Senior manager Eric Hollenbeck recognized that relying solely on the cloud provider's redundancies was insufficient for ensuring reliable access to vital documents. To address this challenge, the company turned to the vendor Spanning for a robust backup solution.

Spanning implemented its Spanning Backup service for Google Drive, proactively protecting Redfin's cloud-based data. The solution positioned Redfin at the forefront of an emerging IT best practice, ensuring critical documents could always be accessed and re-created. While specific quantitative results are not detailed, the implementation by Spanning successfully mitigated the risk of significant data loss for the brokerage.
