431 ExaGrid Testimonials

"The ExaGrid is a terrific product. We were in a terrible spot in regards to our backup times and our disaster recovery situation, but installing the ExaGrid system has solved both problems for us. We no longer have issues meeting our backup window, and we’re able to get complete backups each and every time. The ExaGrid system has done everything we wanted and more."

"We liked the idea of the ExaGrid GRID architecture and the sizable landing pad for a full, uncompressed backup set. I also liked the post-processing deduplication. In my view, ExaGrid’s technology, marketing, and pricing are superior."

“The ExaGrid system fit right into our IT strategy and came in at a good price point. We liked the fact that we had the flexibility to add on a second system in the future for data replication. It also worked extremely well with our existing environment and we were able to keep our investment in Backup Exec.”

“One of ExaGrid’s main differentiators is its approach to scalability. We can mix and match different sized systems to scale up without having to replace the unit. To be honest, we don’t know what our backup needs will be in the next two to three years because our content model isn’t predictable. The one thing we’re sure of is that the ExaGrid will be able to meet our future needs.”

“ExaGrid’s data deduplication technology does a great job at reducing our data so that we’re able to maximize retention. One area where the ExaGrid has made a huge impact has been restores. We’re now extremely confident in our ability to restore data and it takes no time at all."

“The price quote for two ExaGrid systems came in $40,000 less than Dell EMC Data Domain’s quote for one device! Between the customer testimonials, the great pricing, and the five-year support contract—which is absolutely amazing—I knew I wanted to go with ExaGrid.”

“Switching to ExaGrid has resulted in more reliable backups. We haven’t run out of space like we had before. Backup windows are smaller— several hours shorter for our largest backup job.”

“My assigned customer support engineer has a high level of knowledge about my system and environment, so when I speak to him, he doesn’t act as if I am speaking in riddles, which I have experienced with other vendors."

“It gives me peace of mind knowing that our ExaGrid system works so well that we don’t really have to keep an eye on it. It’s easy to use and well-supported.”

“Our largest backup takes three and a half hours, and that’s nothing compared to what it was before. Backup is easily five to six times faster.”

“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.

“We added a larger ExaGrid appliance at our primary site and moved two smaller appliances to expand on our remote site. Adding more appliances to our ExaGrid system was so easy to do!”

“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."

“ExaGrid was one of those things that seems ‘too easy.’ You set it up in a single day and realize it was a piece of cake! ExaGrid and Veeam - they just work."

“The tape backups seemed almost never-ending; the backup window had grown to 22 hours! Once we switched to ExaGrid, the backup window was reduced to 12 hours."
