"With the ExaGrid, we can add storage on the fly and the system will automatically load balance the data across multiple disks. And because we can add capacity in small increments, it's cost-effective because we only need to purchase enough disk to meet our needs."

"The more research we did, the more we believed ExaGrid had the best product on the market from a technical standpoint. Scalability was an important factor in our evaluation of different solutions, and ExaGrid's scalability is much better than the other systems we looked at."

"The ExaGrid system was 25 percent less than the other solutions we looked at and we liked the fact that we could retain our investment in Backup Exec. And because the system works so well with Backup Exec, our learning curve was minimized."

"We don’t have to buy straight disk anymore. If we were to buy all those disks, we would need more floor space, which would be very costly."

"Our IT department's backup administration work has dropped about 90 percent since we started using ExaGrid. The whole tape management process has been eliminated. Now all those hours we'd spend on handling tape can be spent on other important IT initiatives."

"The ExaGrid has cut our annual backup costs by several thousands of dollars just on tape purchases and travel expenses alone. While tape systems do seem to cost less up front, we’ve gained savings on the management and disaster recovery sides with the ExaGrid system."

"One of the things that stood out about the ExaGrid was its ability to scale in both performance and retention by adding additional units to the original system."

"Since installing the ExaGrid system, one of the biggest areas of improvement has been in disaster recovery. We can now do multiple restores at once, whereas in the past we’ve only been able to perform two at a time. We’ve been able to cut the amount of time that it …

"We never could have backed up the amount of data we're generating now with tape. We looked carefully at solutions from ExaGrid and Data Domain and were immediately impressed by ExaGrid's price/performance. The ExaGrid system was far more cost-effective than the Data Domain, and we liked its approach to data …

"We're seeing tremendous dedupe ratios. What would have taken a hundred tapes now just takes a fraction of the available disk space on our ExaGrid system. We can go back through a month of data – over 100TB – if we need to right on the ExaGrid. It really is …

"For us, cost was a key factor in selecting ExaGrid. We wanted a system that was cost effective but also gave us the backup and restore performance and retention we required - the ExaGrid does just that."

"We looked at a lot of different solutions but in the end, ExaGrid offered the most cost-effective and scalable solution. And the fact that we didn't have to change much of our existing backup infrastructure investment was a slam dunk."

"The ExaGrid system was a good fit for our infrastructure. We liked its small footprint and the fact that its data deduplication technology would help us pack more data into our disk storage."

"With ExaGrid, I don’t have to deal with tapes on a weekly basis. Instead, we run archives once a month at night. That means that I’m not busy first thing Monday morning, retrying failed jobs from the weekly fulls and I’m not in work Sunday morning. All I have to …

"The ExaGrid system has really reduced the amount of time our backups take and it delivers extremely fast tape copy performance. Cloning our backups to tape takes no time whatsoever."
