Case Study: United Physicians achieves simple, scalable, HIPAA-compliant cloud backup and rapid data recovery with US Signal S3 Data Storage

United Physicians Chooses US Signal for S3 Compatible Object Storage for Backup

United Physicians, a Michigan-based medical network representing over 2,400 physicians, needed to replace an inefficient, outdated backup system with a simple, cost-effective offsite solution that would let them quickly access and recover sensitive data and meet compliance requirements. After evaluating several providers, including Amazon, United Physicians chose US Signal and its S3 Data Storage and Backup offering for its flat-rate pricing, straightforward model, and presales support.

US Signal implemented S3-compatible object storage with geo-diverse, agent-based backup and offsite retention accessible via S3/Swift APIs and a third-party management portal. The result was seamless cloud backup and rapid data access from anywhere, elimination of complex tiered pricing, improved HIPAA compliance, and hands-off electronic capabilities during the pandemic—benefits United Physicians says will deliver clear ROI as usage grows.
