431 ExaGrid Testimonials

“The capacity at both our production site and our DR site have doubled, if not tripled, since we first installed ExaGrid, so we have added appliances over the years. Working with ExaGrid’s sales and customer support teams is a major reason why we have continued to use ExaGrid for so many years.”

"I'm not spending time anymore trying to figure out why backup jobs didn't run or rerunning jobs. I haven't had anything yet that hasn't run using ExaGrid. It just works!"

"We'd spend hours each week refreshing tapes, moving them back and forth and getting them ready to be picked up by a third party. Restoration was also a huge problem because we had to bring tapes back on site. Not to mention the added cost of storing the tapes off site. We wanted to find a more efficient, less costly solution."

"It's really great to have online backups at our disposal. Since the backups reside on our network and are available 24/7, file restores are completed very quickly, often remotely, and our endusers are back up and running within minutes."

"The ExaGrid system does a great job at reducing our data so we can keep more data on site and available for restores. We don't have to do individual restores often, but as part of HIPAA, we need to set up test environments to show we can restore data. The ExaGrid system makes restores easy because the data is always available to us and we don't have to mess with tape."

"Not only are we able to keep over a month of data on the ExaGrid system, but restores are incredibly fast. The ExaGrid really has reduced the amount of time we spend on backups so we can be more productive."

"We're amazed at how much our backup times have been reduced and how quickly we're able to restore files. Since installing the ExaGrid, our backup times have been cut by two thirds and we're able to restore some files almost instantaneously. Restore reliability is also at 100 percent."

"The transmission speed between sites is fast and efficient because we only send changed data over the network. It’s so fast that we don’t even notice that the systems are synchronizing anymore."

"The ExaGrid system enabled us to significantly reduce our backup window and really makes the whole backup process painless. Also, the fact that we could replicate data between two ExaGrid systems was important because we could act as our own disaster recovery center."

"The ExaGrid system simply works as advertised. Our backup times have been cut in half, restores are fast, and we don't have to rely on tape anymore. Also, ExaGrid has a tremendous customer support team. They are proactive, smart and we know we can rely on them to resolve any issue that comes up."

"The ExaGrid system was very easy to install. We had it out of the box and up and running in less than 30 minutes. We then spent another 30 minutes pointing all of the jobs in Backup Exec to the ExaGrid and the process was completed. It really couldn't have been easier."

"On the old fileserver that we used as a backup server, we retained one day of data on disk, then wrote it to tape during the day. Now, we keep six weeks on the ExaGrid system."

"I've had situations over the years that stand out as bad experiences with other products and vendors. ExaGrid is not one of those. I hardly give the ExaGrid a second thought because it’s never been even a blip on the map in terms of problems. It’s always been very smooth and reliable. I don’t worry about it in any way, shape, or form."

"We looked at a lot of different disk-to-disk solutions. No other vendor was able to offer us cost effective disk-to-disk with a small footprint, data de-duplication and the ability to keep our investment in ARCserve. We have been very impressed with ExaGrid's data de-duplication. It's extremely efficient at reducing our data and we are now able to retain a month of daily backups, along with week-end and month-end backups all on disk. It's very convenient."

"Some of the software products claimed superior flexibility, but after doing some research, it became apparent that we'd still need a hardware platform capable of handling the load now and into the future. We liked the quality of ExaGrid’s hardware platform, and it was designed to be a backup appliance that could easily scale up in the future."
