Case Study: NGEN Radio protects its 501(c)(3) status and streamlines backup and disaster recovery with Unitrends

NGEN Radio - Customer Case Study

Houston-based non-profit Christian radio stations KSBJ and NGEN rely on public donations and must protect financial records that determine their 501(c)(3) status. With a growing 9 TB environment supporting 25 servers, 100 computers and mission-critical systems (Exchange, SQL and financial apps), their aging Symantec Backup Exec solution proved cumbersome, costly and error-prone — creating risk for budgets and compliance.

After discovering Unitrends at SpiceWorld, the stations deployed Unitrends Backup to protect their virtualized Windows servers and critical applications; setup was quick (point to the cluster IP, auto-discover VMs) and management is centralized. The result is reliable ransomware and accidental-delete protection, faster restores, simplified disaster recovery planning, daily “all green” status emails, and significantly reduced admin time — a solution their systems administrator calls one of his top purchases and says they’re very happy with after six months.
