CommVault Galaxy Pays Healthy Benefits For Ohio Police & Fire Pension Fund

The mission of the Ohio Police & Fire's (OP&F's) IS department is to support internal clients, such as the Member Services and Health Services Administration Departments. These departments in turn perform the functions of the organization in support of its members. IS also develops applications used by interal clients to deliver member services.

OP&F's IS infrastructure includes a total of about 30 Dell servers and 210 Dell desktops. CommVault Galaxy software backs up all 30 servers, including one Microsoft Exchange server. CommVault's Microsoft SQL database backup product backs up SQL 7 and SQL 2000 servers. OP&F is in the process of implementing a new Pension Administration System.

Knowing that they wanted a different solution, the IT team investigated a number of products before they determined that CommVault Galaxy was the right solution. "Turns out, it is the right choice," says System & Network manager Jeff Breeckner. Explains Systems Administrator Ryan Ferrari, "CommVault's logical approach makes it easier to add backups, because we just add to an existing policy, versus having to identify individual servers and devices. The switch to Galaxy has solved the OP&F's support issues."
