    Collège Boréal

    • Saving time and money on data protection to focus on what matters — students.

      Collège Boréal saved significant time and money with Dell EMC's Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA). They now need to back up only a fraction of their source data and nightly backup windows complete in half the time. In fact, their bottleneck is now core network infrastructure and slower servers — they can't feed data to the IDPAs fast enough to meet its ingestion rate!

    • Providing consistent access to records and files

      Collège Boréal needs to provide 24x7 access to student, financial and administrative files. Dell EMC IDPA was the perfect solution. Backup times and costs were minimized, and the entire deployment only took two and a half days.

    • Learning through doing: better storage, reliability, and speed

      Collège Boréal had an IT strategy of survival, trying to find ways to save while finding systems that worked. Dell EMC provided a simple and cost-effective way for the college to achieve faster backups, better stability, and a 300% deduplication rate.

      Integration makes troubleshooting a breeze

    • "We couldn't be more pleased with Dell EMC's Integrated Data Protection Appliance (IDPA). We are up and running with little to no effort! Dell EMC really highlights the true value of integrated backup and recovery solutions and our numbers seem almost unbelievable."
