Case Study: Liverpool Heart & Chest Hospital achieves continuous Allscripts availability and rapid one‑click disaster recovery with Zerto Virtual Replication

Liverpool Heart & Chest Hospital - Customer Case Study

Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, a UK specialist medical center, relied on the Allscripts electronic health record as a core part of patient operations. The IT team needed a business continuity solution that would guarantee Allscripts’ availability, simplify failover/failback and reverse protection, and prove successful through realistic disaster-recovery testing to avoid any disruption to patient care.

They implemented Zerto Virtual Replication, a single hypervisor-integrated solution that delivers continuous data protection, aggressive RPOs/RTOs, and automated one‑click failover, failback and non‑disruptive DR testing during business hours. Installed in about 30 minutes with no hardware or application changes, Zerto provided granular recovery points and reliable, repeatable DR processes—giving the hospital confidence that Allscripts and other healthcare applications remain available and patient care is protected.
