Case Study: Transform Cosmetic Surgery Group achieves faster backups, 46% less backup storage and regulatory-ready data protection with Veeam Backup & Replication

Medical Group Transforms Data Protection and Storage Capacity by Combining Veeam and Nimble Storage

Transform Cosmetic Surgery Group, a UK leader with 27 clinics and more than 250,000 patients, faced rapidly growing data — including 10 TB of records and 750,000 high-resolution images — along with possible new long-term retention regulations. With a small IT team, the company needed a cost-effective, easy-to-manage storage and protection solution that could scale and ensure fast, reliable recovery.

Transform deployed Veeam Backup & Replication paired with Nimble CS-Series arrays, gaining simplified administration, fast VM and file recovery (Instant VM Recovery and 1-Click Restore), and flexible snapshot/archival options. Backups became 83% faster (from 12 hours to 2), backed-up data footprint fell 46% through Veeam deduplication and Nimble compression, and the company eliminated $15,000/year in agent licensing — positioning it for compliance with pending retention rules.
