Case Study: Famous Dave’s reduces IT spend and boosts app availability with US Signal

Reducing IT Spend with ReliaCloud FLEX

Famous Dave’s, the national BBQ restaurant chain, needed to cut IT overhead and replace aging on-premises hardware without a capital refresh while keeping back‑office systems running. To shift from CapEx to OpEx and free internal IT to focus on strategic initiatives, Famous Dave’s engaged US Signal and moved toward a hosted private cloud solution (ReliaCloud FLEX).

US Signal delivered a fully hosted, managed IaaS private cloud (ReliaCloud FLEX), migrating workloads off legacy servers with migration tools and backing the service with a 100% availability SLA. As a result, Famous Dave’s eliminated day‑to‑day infrastructure management, reduced IT spend by avoiding hardware refreshes, freed IT staff to work on business priorities, and increased application and data availability under US Signal’s managed service.
