Case Study: Kumin Associates, Inc. achieves automatic, low-bandwidth data protection and rapid recovery with Vision Solutions' Double-Take RecoverNow

Kumin Associates, Inc. - Customer Case Study

Kumin Associates, an Anchorage-based architecture firm with 21 employees, faced a critical risk: dozens of AutoCAD, Revit and other files representing hours of designers’ work needed reliable protection and fast recovery. Limited high-capacity Internet in Alaska and a small IT staff meant the firm required a disaster-recovery solution that conserved bandwidth, was easy to install and manage, and could restore data quickly to avoid costly project delays.

Kumin deployed Double-Take RecoverNow to replicate byte-level changes in near real time to an offsite backup, with bandwidth throttling and point-in-time recovery. When a power surge crashed the production server, users were switched to the backup in under 30 minutes and the production data was restored quickly with minimal disruption. The result: automated protection of nearly a terabyte of data, rapid recovery, simple installation and ongoing peace of mind.
