Case Study: Lytro Inc saves $50K-$500K in endpoint data recovery with CrashPlan (Code42) — validated by TechValidate

Lytro selects CrashPlan, saves $50K in data recovery costs

Lytro Inc., a medium-sized company in the media & entertainment sector, faced frequent endpoint data loss from lost or stolen laptops and hard-drive crashes that drained IT resources and reduced employee productivity. They needed a reliable, low‑overhead way to prevent data loss and reduce recovery effort.

Lytro deployed CrashPlan’s fully hosted public cloud (Code42) for endpoint backups, securing buy-in by demonstrating IT time and cost savings and the risk from shadow IT. The company estimates $50K–$500K saved in endpoint data recovery, more consistent backups, lower data-loss costs, and 1–10 fewer IT hours per week spent managing backups.
