At a Glance

Seattle University chose Cohesity over Rubrik to implement a modern backup and recovery solution.

Challenge

SU experienced a lot of recovery failures with its existing solution, as well as frequent problems related to maintenance and backups, resulting in decreased efficiency for the IT team.

Solution

Cohesity empowers SU to protect, store and manage secondary data, and also extend the web-scale platform for a dev/test environment.

Result

Backups have reduced from hours to minutes, and with Cohesity’s global deduplication capabilities, SU gains more than 60 times its provisioned storage space capacity.
