Case Study: Softchoice achieves fast, reliable VM backup and instant recovery with Veeam Backup & Replication

Veeam Eliminates Backup and Recovery Pain for Large Reseller and its Clients

Softchoice, a leading North American IT solutions provider with more than 1,200 employees, and many of its clients were constrained by legacy backup tools that couldn’t keep up with virtual environments. Backups were slow and storage‑intensive, recoverability was uncertain, and organizations struggled to meet RTOs/RPOs as VM counts grew.

Softchoice implemented Veeam Backup & Replication to protect 500+ VMs, using deduplication, compression, incremental backups and automated recovery verification to reduce storage needs, scale effortlessly, and deliver rapid VM- and item-level restores. The outcome was reliable, scalable protection, stronger client confidence and new business opportunities — with Veeam sales at Softchoice growing over 400% year‑over‑year by August 2013.
