Case Study: Recovery Point Systems, Inc. achieves future-proof data availability and saves several hundred thousand dollars with Veeam

School District Makes the Grade with Intelligent Data Management, Stays on Budget and Saves Several Hundred Thousand Dollars

Recovery Point Systems, working with Veeam, helped a large school district that faced an unexpected, budget‑crushing backup bill: the district was told to either “rip and replace” its appliance‑based backup for about $2.5 million or pay a seven‑figure catch‑up fee for prior usage. With state education funding tight and no capital available until the next budget cycle, the district needed a fast, affordable way to protect hundreds of terabytes of critical data without disrupting operations.

Recovery Point and Veeam delivered a cloud‑based Backup-as-a-Service that migrated more than 1,000 physical and virtual servers (about 500 TB) in roughly 30 days, with no upfront capital expense and the first 12 months cost‑neutral. The solution converted CapEx to OpEx, provided fixed per‑terabyte pricing and virtually unlimited growth, ensured continuous data availability, and saved the district several hundred thousand dollars.
