5 at this time, a fraction of our original workload. If we hadn't been sunsetting the associated VMware cluster, it is likely we would be continuing to grow the coverage.
- Extremely high ROI. We did not have the same positive ratio when working with other vendors in the past.
Our pre-existing BackupExec solution could not effectively cover our cluster at the time of our implementation. We have little basis for comparison, but were pleased to add the capability.
We have greatly benefited from having a cloud repository via CloudConnect, and it has been a hallmark of our Disaster Recovery planning.
We have not used this capacity, but are considering usage of it to replace a dedicated, pre-existing solution.
