Case Study: Leading Insurance Company achieves 5–10 minute recovery and 8‑second RPO with Zerto

Insurance Company Finds Peace of Mind with All-in-One Zerto Solution

A 150-year-old insurance company with offices across four states was running a patched-together DR and backup stack (Double‑take for replication and Veeam for long‑term retention) that was costly, complex and unreliable. Replication could go offline without alerts or a real dashboard, failover testing was difficult, and datacenter recovery could take up to 48 hours—just meeting SLA thresholds—so the organization used a planned infrastructure upgrade to re-evaluate its DR strategy and target Microsoft Azure for cost-effective cloud recovery.

They selected Zerto (with Backup for SaaS powered by KeepIt) for its Azure compatibility and all‑in‑one licensing, enabling consolidated DR, backup, long‑term retention and data migration. The IT team now runs non‑disruptive failover tests, reduced RPO to about eight seconds and RTO to 5–10 minutes, completed datacenter moves in roughly 15 minutes per server, and can restore even long‑deleted Office365 email—delivering the operational simplicity and “peace of mind” they needed.
