Case Study: CORT (furniture rental leader) achieves continuous customer-data access and slashes RPOs/RTOs with Veeam Availability Suite

Veeam furnishes CORT with reliable data protection so CORT can furnish the Fortune 500

CORT, a Berkshire Hathaway company and the nation’s leading furniture rental and transition services provider serving millions of individuals and more than 80% of the Fortune 500, relied on a proprietary application (V2) to run customer orders, inventory and deliveries. Legacy backup was unreliable and recoveries could take up to an hour, risking customer service interruptions, forcing paper processes in stores and creating overnight emergency calls for IT.

CORT deployed Veeam Availability Suite to modernize backup and recovery, backing up 400 TB on‑premises with off‑site replication. The solution cut RPOs by 99% and RTOs by 92%, enabled minute‑scale restores (Instant VM Recovery and granular SQL recovery), saved nearly 500 IT hours annually, and ensured continuous access to customer records so CORT can consistently deliver extraordinary service.
