Case Study: Trend Micro achieves always-on operations and rapid VM recovery with Veeam Backup & Replication

Trend Micro Deploys Veeam Across Three Continents for Always-on Business

Trend Micro, a global leader in security software, outgrew its open-source backup as its virtualization footprint expanded across four datacenters and 103 offices on three continents. Slow, unreliable backups and difficult recoveries left the company unable to meet regulatory recoverability requirements or replicate VMs for disaster recovery, putting business continuity at risk for thousands of vSphere VMs supporting 5,500 employees.

Trend Micro deployed Veeam Backup & Replication across its sites to back up thousands of VMs (nearly 0.5 PB daily), replicate VMs for DR, and verify recoverability with SureBackup. The agentless solution enabled ~2-minute VM recoveries with Instant VM Recovery, eliminated $640,000 in agent license costs, and sped software development refreshes—improving time-to-market by 10%—while providing the reliable DR and fast restores the company required.
