Go Rentals

Overview

Founded in 1968, Go Rentals is one of Ireland’s leading vehicle rental and leasing providers. Over the past 50 years, the business has continued to grow and now has a fleet of over 200 cars and vans. Go Rentals primarily caters for the insurance and tourism sector. However, the organisation’s reputation for high-quality service also makes it popular among SMEs, state bodies, mid-sized companies and globally recognised corporations alike.

The Secure Online Backup Challenge

Following a series of ransomware attacks in 2017, data security and integrity became a top priority for Go Rentals. The organisation had a disaster recovery solution in place, however, it failed to meet Go Rentals’ business requirements. The turn-around time on vehicles in the event of an issue was slow and the solution failed to meet Go Rentals’ customers’ requirements. Aware that its data, reputation and, eventually, bottom line was at risk, Go Rentals began searching for a secure online backup provider.

The Secure Online Backup Solution

Stryve provided Go Rentals with a secure online backup solution that not only met but exceeded the organisation’s expectations. Stryve’s solution utilised Veeam technology, which offered Go Rentals more options and flexibility. Stryve now provides Go-Rentals with a robust online solution that ensures the organisation’s data is offsite within seconds. Our solution is 100% automated and guarantees that no matter what issue arises, the business will be back up and running in minutes. This is of paramount importance to Go Rentals who, as an online business, cannot suffer from any downtime. Furthermore, our solution is managed by Stryve experts, saving Go Rentals’ staff an abundance of time. The organisation’s staff no longer spend hours each month mounting, ejecting, checking, moving media and troubleshooting issues without the technical knowledge required.

“Stryve was our chosen vendor for a number of reasons; we lifted the phone and spoke to humans, they examined our infrastructure, discussed and understood our business requirements and designed a solution that fit our budget”.
