“The combination of Veeam and ExaGrid is very powerful, it’s cost-effective, and was designed specifically for the unique challenges of backing up virtualized environments. We’ve been extremely pleased with the solution.”
"We not only save the cost of the tapes, transportation and storage but we have also significantly reduced the amount of staff time we spend managing tape. Having the ExaGrid in place saves us a lot of time and it frees us up to do other things. I don’t have to constantly monitor the backups or swap out tapes."
"We have been so impressed with the ExaGrid system that we are considering using it to back up some of our other systems that are still being backed up via other methods. As a healthcare facility, we deal with sensitive data, and backing up to disk is much more secure than backing up to tape. One of the nice things about the ExaGrid is that it is easily scalable and we can increase its capacity at any time to accommodate more data."
"One of the things we wanted out of a disk-based backup system was a 'set it and forget it' type of product. The ExaGrid has more than lived up to our expectations. Each day, we quickly check the ExaGrid to ensure that everything ran smoothly and then double-check the amount of available disk space, and that's it. We're confident in the system and it's taken the hassle out of our backups."
"We've been extremely impressed with the ExaGrid system. It fit seamlessly into our network and we were able to keep our existing investment in ARCserve and in our tape library. It's a very cost-effective solution and it really simplified our backups."
"Effective data deduplication translates into big savings, especially when you consider replication. ExaGrid’s data deduplication does a fantastic job at reducing our data, and it enabled us to purchase a smaller system, shorten backup times and improve disaster recovery."
"The ExaGrid system sends me helpful daily email alerts with detailed information like the amount of available disk space and backup job status. I just glance at it each morning and go on with my day."
"The ExaGrid system has unburdened us from worrying about disk sprawl in our backup architectures. I hope to never buy disk again for our backup server. It’s a great feeling."
"As our backup demands increase, we can easily scale the system to handle more data. It’s great to have the flexibility to add an additional system for data replication or to add more capacity."
"Just knowing that with the ExaGrid appliance, if the SAN were to fail or if we lost a virtual server or if for some reason the virtual server wouldn’t start up on the SAN, then we can fire the VM up right here on the ExaGrid and it’ll be up and running in no time flat—that’s a huge benefit from our perspective."
"Our backup windows have come down significantly. What used to take us 22 hours to do a full backup on the weekend is now completed within 10 hours."
"The ExaGrid system was more cost-effective than other deduplication solutions that we evaluated. We were also impressed with ExaGrid's post-process approach to data deduplication. It's been very effective at reducing our data, and we've had dedupe rates as high as 59:1 for our SharePoint data."
"We looked at several systems. We liked ExaGrid's approach to data deduplication. The ExaGrid system provided us with all of the features and capacity we needed and was extremely cost effective."
"We did a fairly thorough evaluation and brought products from Data Domain, Quantum and ExaGrid into our datacenter to compare them. The ExaGrid was the clear winner based on its approach to data deduplication, scalability, price and performance."
"We looked at all the solutions out there, and in terms of meeting Allegro’s business objectives and technical requirements as well as being well priced, ExaGrid came out on top. It’s a product that’s well suited to our company. Allegro is an innovator in its market space and prefers products that are proven, reliable, and easy to work with. We’ve found that ExaGrid is just like that; the product is ‘set it and forget it,’ and the company is very accommodating."
