Minimal training necessary

Time to value in minutes

Stonyhurst College needed a solution that is easy to install and does not require extensive training.

The actual deployment of Redstor, configuring each server, was about a 20-minute process, then we were up and running."

“In terms of training, we spent no more than five minutes with the key service desk staff, just going through the main functionality of the system. Technicians deal only with the areas they need to, as opposed to having to filter through various advanced recovery and archiving tools to get to the data.”

Transparent pricing and scalable to meet changing requirements
Being able to budget with confidence was important to Stonyhurst College, a top co-educational independent school for 460 pupils in Clitheroe, Lancashire.

With Redstor there is no capital expenditure outlay, no complicated renewal or licensing and crucially charges are fully transparent and predictable.

Organisations only pay for the data they select so the cost can be scaled up or down as demand changes.

The software, the cloud platform and expert support all come for a predictable monthly per GB/TB cost.

That flexibility to amend the overall limit available to us is ideal really. It is just a case of paying for any additional data and that can be applied seamlessly across the servers.

It makes it a lot easier to budget in terms of what we are going to need and what it is going to cost specifically from a backup perspective.

We would previously have had to go out and incur hardware costs and additional licensing costs, whereas now it’s just a case of dealing with Redstor and upping our backup on a set rate.

With data growing exponentially, how easy is it to budget accurately?

Easy
Difficult
Almost impossible

“The product does exactly what it says on the tin. It requires minimal management and we get a single point of contact for the whole process.“Redstor is very approachable and listened to what our requirements were. “The support desk is always responsive. Whenever we’ve had any issues, we’ve had a resolution the same day – you can’t really ask for much more than that.”
