“Cohesity stood apart because of its ease of use, rapid recovery at large scale, and strong cyber protections.”

Guru Vasudeva, SVP and CTO, Infrastructure and Operations, Nationwide

At a Glance

Nationwide employees and agents rely on digital services to write new policies, process claims, recommend investments, and more. By switching to Cohesity, Nationwide strengthened business continuity, lowered costs, and enabled a small team to manage more data with less effort.

Challenge

Efficient data management is a top priority. Nationwide’s IT team backs up and secures more than 21 petabytes of data. They wanted to make sure they could quickly restore VMs after a data center outage, security incident, or even an operating system patch gone awry.

Solution

Nationwide started by backing up its thousands of VMs, databases, and files. Next, they replaced the legacy network-attached storage with Cohesity SmartFiles, using it for unstructured data like scanned documents and images.

Result

Saved $2 million per year for backup. Migrated to Cohesity 75% faster. Simplified IT operations due to unified platform for backup and recovery, file and object storage, and cloud backups. Sped up data recovery from months to days for large-scale outages.
