Case Study: Axceler achieves fast, reliable VM recovery and 88% faster backups with Veeam Backup & Replication

Veeam Helps Company Solve Hyper-V Backup Challenges and More

Axceler, a provider of enterprise collaboration governance with roughly 200 Microsoft Hyper‑V virtual machines, needed a reliable, easy‑to‑use backup and disaster recovery solution after its previous tool repeatedly failed to restore VMs and migrations took hours or even days. Protecting development and production environments was critical, but the IT team lacked fast, dependable VM restores and faced slow, unreliable migration processes.

Implementing Veeam Backup & Replication gave Axceler instant, reliable VM recovery and much faster migrations. Veeam’s Instant VM Recovery lets the team restart VMs from backups in minutes; using Veeam to move an 80 GB VM cut migration time from 4–5 hours to under 30 minutes, saving about three months of effort while migrating 150 VMs. Incremental backups are 88% faster (a job went from 2 hours to 15 minutes), with deduplication, compression and offloading that reduce storage and production impact.
