Case Study: SCC UK achieves 10x faster, more reliable VM backups and instant recovery with Veeam Backup & Replication

Replication and instant VM restore help SCC's clients meet RPOs and RTOs

SCC UK, a long-established IT infrastructure provider, struggled with a slow, unreliable backup tool as its virtual environment grew. Before recommending technology to clients, SCC tests solutions internally—after trialing Veeam Backup & Replication, the team chose to replace their legacy tool to ensure reliable backups, replication and faster recovery for hundreds of VMs.

Deploying Veeam unified backup and replication, provided near‑continuous data protection, cross‑site replication and instant point‑in‑time VM recovery, and supported both VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper‑V agentlessly. The outcome: SCC now protects 300+ VMs, cut backup storage from 50 TB to 6 TB, increased backup speed roughly tenfold, and can restore a VM in under five minutes—simplifying management and making the solution easier to sell to clients.
