Case Study: IKK Group achieves 20% faster Microsoft 365 recovery and 20% lower cloud storage costs with Veeam

Data resilience from Veeam protects IKK Group of Companies from multi-milliondollar downtime risks

Isam Khairi Kabbani Group (IKK Group) is a Saudi-based leader in specialized construction, manufacturing and trading with operations across 20+ countries. Rapid growth—now serving thousands of office and field users—saw data volumes triple from 40 TB to 120 TB, overwhelming a legacy backup solution and creating a need for secure, scalable, cost-effective protection for on-prem systems and Microsoft 365 to avoid potentially severe downtime impacts.

IKK implemented Veeam Data Platform and Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365, backed by Veeam ONE analytics, replicating 200+ VMs, using immutable and air-gapped copies and following a 3-2-1-1-0 strategy. The deployment sped Microsoft 365 recoveries by 20%, reduced manual backup work by 25%, cut cloud storage costs by 20%, and delivered predictable, scalable data resilience for critical applications and disaster recovery.
