The company improved backup, recovery and protection of critical business data, while increasing disk cost savings from the previous financial year.

The company was also able to complete a data centre consolidation project in less time than expected and reduced the number of data centres from three to two.

The Simpana 10 platform will provide William Adams with full visibility into and management capability of all corporate data sets via a single, modular data management platform.

Previously the company was challenged to verify that all of its data was being effectively backed up because of the complexities inherent in its legacy four-solution approach.

The single-platform Simpana solution has permitted William Adams to consolidate all backup, recovery, deduplication and archive requirements, eliminating the need for its multiple-vendor, multi-point legacy solution approach.
