  • One of the biggest advantages is that Veeam is hardware agnostic, said Pede. It gives us freedom — no vendor lock-in, no constraints. We can innovate without worrying about compatibility.

  • After migrating our core systems from mainframe to open platforms, strengthening security — including ransomware countermeasures — became an urgent priority. By adopting Veeam Data Cloud Vault as a secondary backup method in the cloud, we have reduced our concerns and gained peace of mind.

  • At Finastra, we needed a resilient way to protect 9,000+ Microsoft 365 users and nearly 750 TB of critical data while meeting aggressive recovery expectations. With Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 Premium, we gained the flexibility and scale needed to recover efficiently from everyday data loss events and larger-scale disruptions alike. By aligning recovery strategy with security priorities, we strengthened operational resilience, reduced downtime risk across our Microsoft 365 estate, and extended protection to our Entra ID environment.
