How a manufacturer cut storage risk with secure data archiving

Vaultastic enabled automated retention and streamlined access to critical business data, replacing fragile infrastructure and reducing long-term storage overhead.

About the Company

Location: India
Industry: Manufacturing
Users: 1,500+
Data volume: 8+ TB legacy + live data
Operations: Multi-location manufacturing and engineering units
Existing systems: Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, other SaaS tools

Why now?

As teams scaled and volumes of data grew, it created data retention challenges, putting operational continuity and data access at risk.

The Difference Vaultastic Made

Before Vaultastic

  • Email and file data stored only within M365, with no secondary backup
  • Legacy and ex-user data manually exported and stored in local or shared drives
  • Data retrieval required IT intervention and manual compilation from multiple systems
  • Backups tied to primary infrastructure, increasing risk
  • High storage costs from inefficient retention

After Vaultastic

  • Automated backup to an independent, secure cloud archive
  • Historical and inactive user data archived in a searchable, policy-driven retention store
  • Self-service discovery through role-based access
  • Independent data archival with improved resilience and data durability
  • Over 47% cost savings with tiered storage architecture

Lack of centralized oversight was exposing the business to risk

Without a central system, it was hard to locate, protect, and trust business data

The business needed a more secure and sustainable way to retain growing volumes of critical information

Disconnected systems made it difficult to access the right information at the right time

A patchwork of backup methods increased pressure on IT and reduced efficiency

Even when data was stored, it wasn’t easy to search, extract, or reuse

Behind the results: How targeted implementation drove business-level change

Migrated legacy data to a centralized store, eliminating fragmented information record-keeping and making information readily accessible
