Kanner & Whiteley Disaster Recovery Case Study

This case study details the disaster recovery solution implemented by Kanner & Whiteley, LLC, an environmental law firm. The firm faced challenges with aging Novell servers that were prone to hardware failures and recognized the need for a reliable recovery system due to the risk of natural disasters. To address these issues, Kanner & Whiteley replaced its Novell servers with Microsoft servers and selected the onQ Site Recovery Appliance for its user-friendly interface and capability to instantly restore data and applications. The case study outlines the significant business benefits achieved, including full recovery of critical servers within minutes rather than days, which is crucial for meeting litigation deadlines. Additionally, the new system eliminated the reliance on tape backups and provided the IT Manager with a sense of security that had been lacking for years, alleviating stress associated with potential data loss.
