CommVault Recognized for Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision
CommVault (NASDAQ: CVLT) – Mumbai
News Facts
- CommVault has been positioned in the “Leaders” quadrant of Gartner Inc.’s report, “Magic Quadrant: Enterprise Backup/Recovery Software”[1], which was published June 11, 2012.
- CommVault believes this reinforces its vision that the future of storage is shifting toward unified management as customers grapple with emerging challenges created by Big Data, virtualization and the increasing need for instant data access for the mobile workforce as organizations strive to cost effectively extract data for timelier, more informed decision-making.
- Gartner states that “by 2016, one-third of organizations will change backup vendors due to frustration over cost, complexity and/or capability” and “by 2015, at least 25 percent of large enterprises will have given up on conventional backup/recovery software, and will employ snapshot and replication techniques instead.”
- Gartner also states that “organizations are increasingly making their backup product selection from vendors that offer expanded protection capabilities and techniques, in addition to traditional tape-based backup software.”
- CommVault anticipated these customer needs and has built capabilities into its Simpana® software platform that enable customers to extend the value of existing hardware investments through industry leading integration and innovation. Specifically, CommVault’s SnapProtect® technology provides hardware snapshot management without custom scripting or solutions and the new Simpana OnePass™ feature is the industry’s first converged process for backup, archive and reporting from a single data collection and common infrastructure.
