Case Study: Broadway Carpets achieves rapid ransomware recovery and regains personal time with Unitrends Enterprise Backup

Restoring Family Time with Unitrends Enterprise Backup Virtual Servers

Broadway Carpets, a holding company for carpet, construction and home-remodeling subsidiaries, relied on CFO/IT manager Scott Bacon to maintain backups—often spending 15 hours each weekend on manual processes. Their Symantec/Verizon tape and external-drive workflow failed when a drive corruption went unnoticed, a test restore failed and months of data were lost, prompting a search for a more reliable backup and recovery solution.

They deployed Unitrends Enterprise Backup across four locations to protect physical and virtual Windows servers, terminal servers, desktops and a Synology SAN. The solution simplified backup maintenance, enabled rapid bare-metal and VM restores and provided replication and testable recoveries; after about 60 days it enabled a full ransomware recovery in roughly 30 minutes with minimal data loss, restored business operations and gave Bacon back personal time and confidence in his backups.
