431 ExaGrid Testimonials

"We looked at other solutions, but we chose ExaGrid because of how scalable it is, the way that the grid system works - you just add another node to the grid as your data grows."

"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."

“I think the biggest thing that we’ve noticed here is the massive time savings. There’s an ever-increasing demand on our time, and being able to get back the time spent managing and monitoring backups is huge – the difference is dramatic and remarkable! Now, we have more time to invest elsewhere in moving the organization forward."

“Once we put the ExaGrid in place, it was like having a chalkboard and wiping it clean with no backup issues anymore."

“We had a situation where a few of our larger servers had been hit with a virus, so we had to recover the data from our ExaGrid system. The data was completely restored and put into a holding location before we were even able to fix the virus itself—it’s one fast system!”

“Working with ExaGrid support is like going to see a family physician. When you call into some other vendors, it’s like going to a walk-in clinic where you see a different doctor each time. With ExaGrid, the support engineers get to know your history like your doctor knows your chart."

“If we didn’t have the latest backup available in a hydrated format (on the ExaGrid landing zone), a restore would be horrifically slow. We have been able to achieve our desired three-month daily retention targets and are very impressed with the inter-site replication from HQ to the DR site.”

“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.”

“ExaGrid is extremely reliable which is what we strive for in backup storage. ExaGrid has made my life so much easier."

“In addition to ExaGrid, we looked at EMC Data Domain. Overall, ExaGrid was the best solution for us, mainly because of the expandability of the system."

"[The fire] was chaos, but two to three days after, with ExaGrid being there for me, I was able to pull my data. I was even able to still make payroll that same week because we were up and running with email and all major systems. I relied on my ExaGrid system and it delivered.”

“We like that ExaGrid scales quite efficiently and that there are encrypted versions of its appliances at attractive price points. We converted from other technology to ExaGrid and we’re happy with the results. We’ve made it our standard offering and standard go-to-market strategy."

“It used to take up to two days to run an incremental backup of a Microsoft Exchange server for one of our clients. An incremental of that same server now takes one hour! Restoring data is also much faster now that we use ExaGrid and Veeam. Restoring an Exchange server would take up to four days, but now we are able to restore an Exchange server in four hours!”

“The simplicity of the ExaGrid system is the best thing about it. It’s the easiest piece of the puzzle that I have right now. It hasn’t required anything from me since the initial setup, and that’s what I want in a piece of equipment—something I don’t need to spend much time looking at.”

“The greatest impact that deduplication has had is on the amount of space consumed for how much data we’ve backed up. For example, we’re backing up 21TB of Oracle data, but it only consumes 200GB!”
