DENVER and TINTON FALLS, N.J., Oct. 15, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Commvault
(NASDAQ: CVLT), a recognized global enterprise software leader in
the management of data for cloud and on-premises environments,
today announced it was positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders
quadrant of the recently released Magic Quadrant for Data Center
Backup and Recovery Solutions. Gartner positioned Commvault
furthest for completeness of vision in the Leaders quadrant and
highest for ability to execute in the entire Magic Quadrant. This
is the eighth consecutive time Commvault has been named a Leader in
this Gartner market evaluation for backup and recovery.
According to Gartner, "the data center backup and recovery
market is rapidly changing as it addresses I&O leaders' needs
for simpler, more agile and cost-optimized solutions. This research
provides analyses of execution and vision of leading backup and
recovery vendors and solutions."
"We're excited to celebrate our position as a Leader in the
Gartner Magic Quadrant today at our annual customer event,
Commvault GO, where Commvault will share its vision on how it
intends to build on its backup and recovery innovation," said
Sanjay Mirchandani, CEO and
President, Commvault. "We feel this recognition by Gartner for the
eighth time in a row validates our ability to consistently deliver
innovative technology and world-class customer service and support,
enabling our customers to be data ready and thrive in today's data
centric world. I want to thank our employees, customers and
partners for their passion and dedication, which we believe makes
our ability to execute possible."
The report also states that "today, ease of deployment, instant
recovery and, especially, a greater ease of daily administration
are key requirements. The backup and recovery market is also
consolidating many features like data replication, (cloud) disaster
recovery automation and orchestration, and intercloud data mobility
on a single platform. In addition, backup vendors are adding data
management functionality to their backup platforms to support
analytics, test/dev and/or ransomware detection on cloud copies of
backup data to deliver a higher return on the investment of data
protection."
Commvault believes Gartner's recognition validates its position
in the data backup and recovery market by directly addressing the
evolving data management needs facing enterprises today and beyond
by delivering:
- Recovery Readiness: Reducing risk from data loss through
protection and recoverability processes that preserve
organizations' reputations, deliver better customer experiences,
ensure business continuity and increase productivity.
- Seamless Multi-Cloud Access: Enabling customers to push more
workloads to multiple clouds to improve visibility, availability
and use of data – all from a single platform and with flexible,
scalable recovery.
- Infrastructure modernization: Working with world leading
partners to ensure customers can seamlessly consolidate, manage and
scale their hybrid infrastructures, accelerate business innovation,
improve customer experience and achieve higher efficiencies.
- The industry's broadest support of operating systems,
hypervisors, applications, databases, storage arrays, public cloud
providers, and data management functions.
- Flexible pricing and packaging options.
- Industry leading customer support.

According to Gartner, Magic Quadrant Leaders have "the highest
combined measures of ability to execute and completeness of vision.
They have the most comprehensive and scalable product portfolios.
They have a proven track record of established market presence and
financial performance. For vision, they are perceived in the
industry as thought leaders, and have well-articulated plans for
enhancing recovery capabilities, improving ease of deployment and
administration, and increasing their scalability and product
breadth. A fundamental sea change is occurring in the backup and
recovery market. For vendors to have long-term success, they must
plan to address the legacy requirements of traditional backup and
recovery, while looking to expand their integration with and
exploitation of emerging applications, hypervisors, snapshot and
replication technologies, and public cloud capabilities. A
cornerstone for Leaders is the ability to articulate how new
requirements will be addressed as part of their vision for recovery
management. As a group, Leaders can be expected to be considered
part of most new purchase proposals and to have high success rates
in winning new business. This does not mean, however, that a large
market share alone is a primary indicator of a Leader. Leaders are
strategic vendors, well-positioned for the future, having
established success in meeting the needs of upper midsize and large
data centers."
