Case Study: City of Goose Creek achieves reliable, fast server recovery and peace of mind with Unitrends

Reliable Backups for Local Government

Goose Creek, a mid-sized city in Berkeley County, SC, supports about 250 employees across 200 network nodes and 12 servers that run critical functions from financials to 911. The city needed reliable, accessible backups with fast recovery after losing confidence in its previous provider, Zenith, due to failed backups and declining support.

After seeing a Unitrends demo, IT Director Ryan Byrd deployed Unitrends Recovery 813 for its clean, single-view interface and proactive monitoring. The appliance restored a misconfigured monitoring server within hours with minimal downtime; the city now enjoys faster-than-tape recoveries, dependable backups, responsive support, and greater peace of mind at a competitive price.
