Instead of paying, the city restored operations fully using Veeam within minutes, with zero service disruption. Veeam supports immutable backups, Azure integration, Microsoft 365 protection and compliance with Florida’s Public Records Act. SureBackup and Instant VM Recovery ensure operational continuity and fast audit-ready recoverability.
