“For some of our clients, cloudbased backup is just not feasible due to the amount of data that they have stored. Cloud-based backup solutions charge by the amount of data stored, so clients would have to worry about the monthly price changing as user data grows. That’s the biggest difference about using an ExaGrid system; the appliance is paid for and owned, and it has been properly sized to accommodate the client. It can be scaled as necessary, and it’s a very easy system to deploy.

"Some of our backup jobs used to run beyond our backup windows, and if they were still running during the workday, our network would slow down. Backup jobs that used to run 12 hours now take about two hours. It’s made a huge difference."

"Managing backups with ExaGrid is very easy – all you have to do is set your backup jobs to point to the ExaGrid and you’re done."

"Having the ExaGrid system in place probably dropped my interaction with backups by 70 to 80 percent."

"Our data is constantly growing. The ability to increase the system's capacity and performance by simply adding appliances to our GRID is a big plus. Other systems we looked at were more complex and required forklift upgrades for expansion."

"Products are rarely quite as good as companies say they are, but the ExaGrid system is fantastic. Not only has ExaGrid's product worked as promised, but the technical support team is top-notch. The staff is very knowledgeable and I can count on them to stand behind their product."

"The ability to reduce the amount of data stored is probably one of the most valuable benefits of the ExaGrid solution. We have a tremendous amount of redundant data here and ExaGrid's data deduplication probably cuts the total amount of data down to a third."

"Using the ExaGrid, we know for sure that we're going to be able to restore data, and I feel very good about that."

"We saw the impending doom of our system. This forced us to take a really hard look at where we needed to be, and we were able to get there thankfully with ExaGrid."

"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!"

"Not only was ExaGrid the most cost-effective solution out there, but we felt it was the best technology -- giving us everything we were looking for in a backup appliance and at a much lower cost than the other systems we considered."

"We're able to back up so much more data and do it all much more quickly. Even more important is that the backups are reliable. I can rest easy knowing the system works and our data is protected and easily accessible."

"Scalability was a factor we looked very closely at. When we compared the ExaGrid and Data Domain systems, we felt that the ExaGrid was more scalable because we can easily expand the system to add both capacity and performance without a forklift upgrade."

"Mondays are very beautiful here now!"

"We looked at a couple of other solutions but ultimately found that the ExaGrid solution offered us the most cost-effective and easy to use solution. And because we didn't have to change our existing backup infrastructure with our backup application, it made the decision a no-brainer for us."
