Case Study: Document House Group (EPL) achieves automated, verifiable Hyper-V backups and rapid VM recovery with Veeam Backup Essentials

Small Business Chooses Veeam Backup Essentials to Protect Hyper-V

EPL B.V., part of the Document House Group, ran a small virtual environment (two Microsoft Hyper‑V hosts and ~30 VMs) but relied on manual backups and had limited monitoring and capacity planning. When a VM running SQL Server failed, recovery took hours and the team had no confidence that backups were complete or recoverable.

After trialing Veeam Backup Essentials with help from Tweeweg IT, EPL deployed automated backup, recoverability verification (SureBackup), fast item-level restores (Veeam Explorer for Exchange, U‑AIR), and monitoring/reporting with capacity planning. The result: failed VMs are recovered in minutes, daily backup-status reports and verifiable recoverability give peace of mind, and the solution is affordable and scalable for future growth and cloud use.
