Case Study: Issam Khairy Kabbani Group of Companies achieves accelerated, cost-effective expansion and faster recovery with Veeam

IKK Group Fuels Accelerated and Cost-Effective Expansion with Veeam

The Issam Khairy Kabbani Group (IKK), a diversified real estate, construction and trading conglomerate with about 14,000 employees across 42 companies in the MENA region, faced growing business risk from a legacy backup solution that produced frequent errors and relied on slow, partner‑mediated support. With a centralized IT team responsible for availability across many remote sites, the group needed a more reliable, 24/7 regional support and recoverability strategy as they scaled.

IKK implemented Veeam Availability Suite and Veeam ONE, adopting Veeam’s per‑socket licensing and centralized monitoring, plus Instant VM Recovery for rapid restores. The change delivered roughly 30% cost savings versus the old solution, drastically reduced restore times and downtime, improved IT team efficiency, enabled cloud-based off‑site backup/DR planning, and provided dependable 24/7 regional support.
