“It’s fast to install and easy to use. SpinOne gives me confidence in our Office 365 deployment” – Ted Do, IT Manager, LiveAction, Inc.

The Challenge

With a rapidly growing global organization, LiveAction recognized potential problems with its data in the cloud. As a heavy user of Microsoft’s Office 365, the organization had documents in Sharepoint, OneDrive, across hundreds of user accounts spread around the globe.

The IT team along with the SecOps team determined it was time to move to an automated platform that would regularly backup all files, provide for easy to recover, version controlled data and provide 24×7 ransomware protection. Also, in the event of a breach, the team wanted an insurance policy to help get the organization back on its feet.

The SpinOne Solution

After reviewing various products and before the trial was over, the LiveAction IT team concluded SpinOne was the best of breed. The deployment was easy and worked seamlessly to backup years of data. The test restores were self explanatory to execute and 100% accurate and the simulated ransomware test immediately identified and stopped an attack.
