Company replaces increasing volume of competitive solutions,
achieves unprecedented 30% growth rate

Westborough, Massachusetts, 4. listopada 2018 – ExaGrid®, vodeći pružatelj hiper-konvergirane sekundarne pohrane za sigurnosno kopiranje, danas je objavio rekordne rezervacije i prihode u trećem kvartalu 3. ExaGrid je rastao po stopi od 3% u odnosu na isti kvartal prethodne godine, nastavljajući svoj trend progresivnog rasta bržom brzinom od stope cjelokupnog tržišta i rezultira progresivnim povećanjem tržišnog udjela. Tvrtka je također nastavila svoju tržišnu putanju, privlačeći sve veći broj poslovnih korisnika sa stotinama terabajta do petabajta podataka za sigurnosne kopije.

“This was our best bookings and revenue quarter in the history of the company,” said Bill Andrews, CEO and President of ExaGrid. “We are continuing to replace old and expensive systems – including Dell EMC Data Domain, HPE StoreOnce, and many other deduplication solutions – that are slow for backups due to inline deduplication and are slow for restores as they only store deduplicated data.”

Osim rekordnih rezervacija i prihoda u drugom kvartalu, ExaGrid je postigao sljedeće:

• A Net Promoter Survey of ExaGrid’s customers yielded a Net Promoter Score of +73, considered to be “excellent” by Net Promoter standards. This customer loyalty metric measures how likely existing customers are to recommend a vendor’s product or service to a colleague.
• ExaGrid is relocating its corporate offices at the end of 2018 in order to better accommodate the company’s growing engineering, IT, customer support, inside sales, marketing, finance, and executive staff.
• A sampling of the company’s many key global customer wins in Q3 includes:
  • Fast response to Hurricane Florence – A large US-based provider of medical practice management services and technology has a North Carolina-based client – a practice located in the path of Hurricane Florence, a monster storm that hit the Carolina coast in early September. ExaGrid’s customer contacted ExaGrid, urgently requesting 400TB of capacity plus landing zone for its client practice. Shipped that day and installed the next in North Carolina, the system was used to back up the practice’s data, was de-installed, and was shipped to its out-of-state data center that evening for disaster recovery.
  • A global manufacturer of metal components for mining and construction, previously using Dell EMC Data Domain and NetWorker, was facing a rip-and-replace of their existing system. Over the incumbents – as well as Cohesity – customer opted for a combined ExaGrid and Veeam dual-site solution for both onsite backups as well as offsite disaster recovery protection.
  • Located in France, an association of private hospitals chose ExaGrid over HPE StoreOnce due to ExaGrid’s integration with Veeam and its lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
  • A Mexican telecommunications company was faced with a data center move and decided that ExaGrid – due to its unique landing zone – would provide them with the speed and flexibility they needed for this project as well as future backup and disaster recovery requirements.
  • A Swiss social insurance company replaced HPE StoreOnce after an impressive head-to-head proof of concept (POC).
  • A Middle Eastern insurer located in Oman was faced with more stringent backup retention requirements to maintain its compliance under the Islamic Shari’a framework. Customer chose ExaGrid over HPE StoreOnce for ExaGrid’s seamless scalability to ensure continued retention compliance as data volumes increase.
  • A Canadian managed services provider replaced HPE Data Protector and Avamar with Veeam, and replaced HPE StoreOnce and Dell EMC Data Domain with ExaGrid. These selections were made over the incumbent solutions (as well as Commvault and Veritas) due to Veeam-ExaGrid’s unmatched scalability and superior performance.
  • The German subsidiary of an eminent global defense company is replacing HPE Data Protector with Veeam, and its tape library with ExaGrid due to ExaGrid’s aggressive deduplication and its unsurpassed integration with Veeam.
  • A European salt mine that produces five million tons of salt annually chose ExaGrid to replace its HPE disk. Among the many features and benefits, ExaGrid’s unique landing zone was ultimately the deciding factor.
  • Longer-term retention requirements prompted a South African high-grade manganese mining company to compare the cost of using ExaGrid for backup storage to standard primary disk storage. ExaGrid’s data deduplication approach was a fraction of the cost of standard disk.
  • The 2nd largest coal producer in the eastern U.S. replaced HPE StoreOnce and Quantum with ExaGrid. Customer’s POC showed superior performance with ExaGrid and Veeam against the incumbent vendors as well as Rubrik.
• The company continues its global expansion with the addition of field sales teams in EMEA, APAC, and Latin America.

“Customers have used the first generation of deduplication appliances for years and have hit the wall because inline deduplication is slow and does not scale” said Andrews. “ExaGrid now offers the largest system in the industry – one that can take in up to a 2PB full backup at up to 432TB/hr., which is 3X faster than its closest competitor.”

Za razliku od prve generacije rješenja za deduplikaciju koja su ugrađena ili u backup aplikacijski medijski poslužitelj ili u skalirani uređaj za pohranu, ExaGrid isporučuje jedinu istinsku skaliranu arhitekturu s deduplikacijom podataka u industriji sigurnosnih kopija. To je obično upola manje od rješenja velikih robnih marki, a također poboljšava izvedbu sigurnosnog kopiranja i vraćanja kombiniranjem deduplikacije na razini zone, adaptivne deduplikacije, globalne deduplikacije i jedinstvene zone slijetanja.

Kako tržište sazrijeva, korisnici shvaćaju degradaciju performansi koju deduplikacija podataka može imati pri sigurnosnom kopiranju osim ako rješenje nije namjerno projektirano da spriječi bilo kakav takav utjecaj. Sva rješenja za deduplikaciju do određenog stupnja smanjuju pohranu i propusnost WAN-a, ali samo ExaGrid rješava tri inherentna računalna problema za postizanje bržih sigurnosnih kopija, vraćanja i pokretanja VM-a iskorištavanjem svoje jedinstvene zone slijetanja, prilagodljive deduplikacije i skalirane arhitekture.

“Prva generacija rješenja za deduplikaciju može biti previsoka za pohranu sigurnosnih kopija, a također su spora za sigurnosne kopije, obnavljanje i pokretanje VM-a, zbog čega više od 80% ExaGridovih novostečenih klijenata zamjenjuje Dell EMC Data Domain, HP StoreOnce, Commvault Deduplication, i serija uređaja Veritas 5200/5300 s ExaGridom,” rekao je Andrews.

Svi dobavljači rezervne pohrane smanjuju pohranu i propusnost u različitim stupnjevima, ali pružaju spore stope unosa jer izvode deduplikaciju podataka 'inline'. Osim toga, budući da pohranjuju samo deduplicirane podatke, brzine vraćanja i podizanja VM također su vrlo spori. Budući da je ExaGrid eliminirao tri računalna izazova svojstvena sigurnosnoj pohrani s deduplikacijom podataka, ExaGridova stopa unosa je 6X brža – a vraćanja/podizanja VM-a su do 20X brže – od najbližeg konkurenta. Za razliku od dobavljača prve generacije koji samo dodaju kapacitet kako podaci rastu, ExaGrid uređaji dodaju računanje s kapacitetom, osiguravajući da prozor sigurnosne kopije ostane fiksne duljine. Samo ExaGrid koristi skaliranu arhitekturu s jedinstvenom zonom učitavanja, koja holistički rješava sve izazove skalabilnosti i performansi sigurnosne pohrane.

ExaGrid je objavljen priče o uspjehu kupaca i poslovne priče više od 350, više od svih ostalih dobavljača u prostoru zajedno. To uključuje priču na dvije stranice i ponudu korisnika, pokazujući koliko su korisnici zadovoljni ExaGridovim jedinstvenim arhitektonskim pristupom, diferenciranim proizvodom i korisničkom podrškom bez premca. Kupci dosljedno izjavljuju da ne samo da je proizvod najbolji u klasi, već i da 'jednostavno radi.'
