Case Study: MWA Bank cuts disaster recovery from 24-48 hours to 1.5 hours with Vision Solutions' Double-Take Availability

MWA Bank - Customer Case Study

MWABank, a direct bank based in Rock Island, Illinois, needed 24/7 access to its banking systems but was hamstrung by an outdated tape-only disaster recovery process that required full server rebuilds from off-site tapes and took 24–48 hours to complete.

By deploying Dell hardware with VMware virtualization and Vision Solutions Double-Take Availability for real-time replication, MWABank moved key systems to virtual machines with continuous replication and on-demand recovery. The new solution reduced recovery time to about 1.5 hours, improved RTO/RPO, enabled immediate failover and centralized management from any web-connected device, and provided a scalable, cost-effective DR plan.
