Case Study: Business Communications, Inc. achieves reduced downtime and streamlined data center management with Unitrends

Service Provider Delivers Reliable Managed Services with Cisco UCS and Unitrends

Business Communications Inc. (BCI) is a southeastern U.S. IT services firm founded in 1993 that evolved from cabling into a full-service provider of networking, web hosting, email, and managed IT for commercial, government, education, and healthcare customers. As BCI expanded into virtual managed services, it needed a more agile, scalable data center architecture to deploy services quickly and meet future demand while maintaining competitive service levels and compliance requirements.

BCI implemented Cisco UCS for simplified, scalable compute and paired it with Unitrends backup and recovery appliances to protect virtual, physical, and cloud environments. The combined solution delivered faster recoveries, single-pane management, and easy replication of server configurations and applications—letting BCI restore customers to full operation in minutes or hours instead of waiting days or weeks for hardware replacement, and improving disaster recovery and compliance for sensitive customers.
