Case Study: The Pinewood Studios Group achieves fast, reliable VM backups and peace of mind with Veeam Essentials (Veeam)

Veeam Takes the Stage in Physical to Virtual Transformation

The Pinewood Studios Group, a multinational media and entertainment company, moved from 14 physical servers to a VMware vSphere environment supporting 30 VMs and needed a backup solution built for virtualization that was easy to use, low maintenance and capable of replication to support high availability and disaster recovery.

They deployed Veeam Essentials (Veeam Backup & Replication plus Veeam ONE), which delivered faster, reliable backups and instant recoveries — mailbox restores that once took a day now take minutes — and automated recoverability testing with SureBackup. The IT team saved about 15 hours per week, gained real-time monitoring and reporting, and now has consistent, verifiable backups and greater peace of mind.
