Lower TCO

“When a neurology practice’s SAN failed, with Cohesity we were able to restore 40 TB of EMR data with all the applications and services in just a few hours. I just searched for all files, clicked ‘Restore All’ – and sat down for dinner. With our previous backup solution it would have taken days to rebuild the customer’s storage and decide where to restore each file.”

Adam Brock, Senior Director for Data Protection, Path Forward IT

At a Glance

Path Forward IT refreshed its backup and restore service for healthcare providers, switching from their old platform to Cohesity-Powered managed backup as a service. Now Path Forward IT can restore 10 TB of EMR data in under 10 minutes. Customer costs dropped by 75% on average, and Cohesity provides cybersecurity defenses like ransomware protection.

Challenge

Path Forward IT wanted to take backup as a service to a new level to ensure HIPAA compliance and to meet strict regulatory requirements for data protection. The managed service provider also needed to mitigate downtime in order to provide superior patient care and to avoid revenue loss.

Solution

Path Forward IT also evaluated Datto and Veeam, and selected Cohesity DataProtect to power its backup and restore service for healthcare providers, called Patient Shield. Cohesity enables faster restore times, a choice of local and cloud backups, and greater security, including ransomware protection.

Result

Path Forward IT now has Cohesity’s multiple security layers—including multifactor authentication, immutable backups, and secure off-site replication—bring peace of mind, both to Path Forward IT and its healthcare partners.
