Midland Credit Management takes control of their ServiceNow data with OwnBackup

Problems

With ServiceNow alone, Brian and team are only able to back up based on ServiceNow’s in-house backup schedule. If something happens in ServiceNow and data gets corrupted or, worse, deleted, they would need to reach out and coordinate with ServiceNow on any data needs.

“If we have to go to ServiceNow to ask for a backup, our choices are limited and we are looking for more flexibility.”

Solutions

With OwnBackup for ServiceNow, Brian and team have:

While Brian has not suffered a catastrophic data loss, they’ve experienced limited outages or issues.

“If something happens, it can be difficult to identify the issue and then try to figure out what happened. While ServiceNow protects their own servers and service, we want something like OwnBackup to protect against data loss or corruption that we may cause directly or in-directly. We need to be in charge of our own data for restoration.”

Looking to the future, a side project Brian and team are excited about is ushering data out of ServiceNow and into our single data analytics environment, so other users have access and can use their own model of reporting using that data. OwnBackup will be able to help them run the tests when they are ready.
