431 ExaGrid Testimonials

“One of the features I love about ExaGrid is its scalability. We will never max out capacity or need a forklift upgrade again, because we can simply add more appliances to the system. Competitors are not able to match that architecture.”

"The ExaGrid system fit seamlessly into our environment. It worked with both of our existing backup applications right out of the box."

"We made the right choice with the ExaGrid system. It has increased the speed of our backups and restores, helped us raise our level of data security and reduced the amount of time and money we spend on tape."

"We looked at several different disk-based backup systems in depth and we liked the tight integration between the ExaGrid and VMware and the fact that ExaGrid provides a high level of support for VMware. The ExaGrid system will enable us to have near-instantaneous recovery of our virtual hosts in the event of a crash."

"The ExaGrid system provided all the functionality we needed at a better price than the EMC Data Domain system. We also liked that we could use the ExaGrid system along with our existing backup application, CA ARCserve Backup, so our learning curve was minimized."

"The ExaGrid system fit right into the district's infrastructure and immediately improved retention, restore times, and backup speeds."

"The ExaGrid really does eliminate all of the problems associated with tape, including long backup windows, difficult restore processes and the day-to-day tape management. It's a very simple, clean way to protect valuable data at a price point comparable to tape."

"With the ExaGrid, the last full backup remains available on the landing zone so that we have the latest and greatest information available at our fingertips."

"When I first spoke with ExaGrid at a VMware User Group about their system, I thought they were blowing smoke about the ease of use and speed. But when I saw it for my own eyes in our environment, I was amazed and I still am amazed. It's been fantastic."

"If somebody deletes a file within the last two weeks, I can restore within, literally, a minute or two."

"When we were evaluating solutions, we wanted something that would scale as our organization and data requirements grew. ExaGrid gives us peace of mind that we have a robust system in place that can easily scale as our organization and data grows."

"I have peace of mind that I didn't have before. Because our tape process was so complicated and manual, I was the only one who could manage the backups before. Now with the ExaGrid, the backups just run, even if I’m not in the office."

"The cost of the two-site ExaGrid system was far less than the cost of adding a shelf and drives to our SAN. We reclaimed the space on the SAN and got a better backup solution with disaster recovery capabilities for less money."

"When it came down to it, the ExaGrid solution was far more expandable than the EMC Data Domain system. With the EMC Data Domain unit, we worried that if we had to expand the amount of available storage, we’d need to replace the whole system. ExaGrid’s GRID architecture will enable us to add capacity or performance by simply plugging in another unit."

"When I made the purchase from ExaGrid, there were two simple line items – the appliance and the maintenance/support – whereas the quotes from EMC had multiple line items. ExaGrid has no add-ons; everything is included in the appliance purchase with no additional costs or licenses required."
