## Protecting Revenue and Reputation with Expedient DRaaS and Colocation

 ![Three colleagues looking at a desktop computer screen together]()

For organizations that depend on always-on operations, an underperforming or defunct disaster recovery (DR) strategy can put far more than data at risk. Business continuity, revenue, and customer trust can all be negatively affected. Facing these pressures, a leading heavy equipment dealer sought a more resilient approach and deployed Expedient Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) and Expedient Colocation to strengthen recovery, protect critical operations, and build confidence in its ability to maintain operations and recover from unplanned disruption.
