Case Study: Asta achieves 250x faster DR testing and future‑proof IT with Zerto Virtual Replication

Asta Future-Proof IT with Zerto Virtual Replication

Asta, a leading third‑party managing agent at Lloyd’s that has established 18 Lloyd’s businesses, needed a more agile, less risky approach to disaster recovery. Their legacy setup relied on multiple point solutions, produced large snapshot traffic that risked SLA breaches, and required highly disruptive DR tests that took 18–24 hours and extensive monitoring.

Deploying Zerto Virtual Replication gave Asta a single, web‑based solution for continuous replication, automated testing and monitoring, with a 45‑minute install and non‑disruptive DR tests completed in under 5 minutes by one person. Results included RPOs of seconds (10s) and RTOs of minutes (5 min), 250× faster DR testing, immediate ROI from storage‑agnostic replication, and a more resilient, future‑proof IT estate ready for hybrid cloud and new technologies.
