CHALLENGE

Before implementing StarWind Virtual Tape Library Appliance (VTLA), Beauty by Imagination relied on traditional backup methods and needed a more efficient solution to ensure the safety and availability of critical data. Its VMware-based environment lacked a streamlined and modern backup storage system, which put pressure on its IT operations and risked potential data loss.

With no adequate backup storage solution in place, Beauty by Imagination sought a reliable, robust alternative that could also offer proactive support to minimize downtime and operational risks.

StarWind provides excellent customer service along with a robust product. I love how your techs are very proactive with monitoring and notifying us about any issues.
