Peter Jacobson—the longtime IT manager for Quantum Windows & Doors in Everett, Wash.—remembers the challenging days before his company had a backup system with granular restore capabilities.
Whenever an employee lost an individual file that was part of a database, Jacobson had to restore the entire database from backup. The process was time consuming and bad for productivity.
“Granular backup is extremely important for databases like Microsoft SQL Server,” Jacobson explained. “When it’s a non-granular backup, you have to restore the entire database, which means everybody’s work throughout the entire day gets overwritten, just to get that one file back.”
It was clear that the company needed a better data protection solution. That’s when Quantum Windows & Doors and Jacobson turned to Carbonite Cloud Backup.
