CommVault - Third Time Proud!
CommVault is a Leader in the 2013 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Backup/Recovery Software, for the third year in a row!
Once again, Gartner has positioned CommVault as a leader based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision. The culture of innovation, matched with over 18,000 customers, makes CommVault the world's fastest growing data storage software company. But you won't find CommVault resting on their laurels.
As data demands continue to multiply, their focus remains powerful: revolutionize data management. Anticipating the game is at the heart of our Solving Forward® philosophy – CommVault solve their customers' challenges and needs before they arise.
CommVaults innovative approach transcends backup to help enterprises realize the true business value of their data.
The Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Backup/Recovery Software presents the next step in the evolution of backup, which incorporates new products, solutions and techniques for protecting, backing up and recovering desktop, laptop, physical server and virtual server files, applications and system images. These backup products provide features such as traditional backup to tape, backup to conventional disk, backup to the cloud, data reduction (compression and deduplication), snapshot, heterogeneous replication, continuous data protection (CDP) and/or virtual tape library (VTL) support, among other capabilities.
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. Many organizations understand the value of backing up critical data via multiple methods. Many of these vendors profiled in the report would have been considered nontraditional suppliers of recovery solutions only a few years ago.
Gartner has responded to the changing enterprise backup/recovery landscape with a more comprehensive evaluation tool that better reflects the current and evolving state of the market. While the origins of this Magic Quadrant are in tape-based backup application software, Gartner also consider vendors that produce backup software and potentially a complementary backup/recovery hardware portfolio. A vendor no longer must possess tape capabilities to be included. However, vendors that do not possess a broad-based and heterogeneous backup application (for example, a Windows-only or a single hypervisor virtual machine [VM]-only solution) and that deliver only disk-based backup appliances were not eligible for inclusion in this Magic Quadrant. It also excludes backup software for a homogeneous environment, such as native tools from Microsoft or VMware for their own specific platforms, as many enterprise customers prefer a single, scalable backup product for a heterogeneous environment. Other solutions for more-specific backup use cases, such as pure-play endpoint, cloud or appliance solutions for backup, are also not included in this research.
To celebrate Gartner naming CommVault a leader in its Magic Quadrant for Enterprise backup/Recovery software for a third consecutive year and with the release of Simpana 10 we are delighted to announce that we are running a workshop event on the 17th of October in the Residence Members Club, Dublin 2.
