ExaGrid Enhances

WESTBOROUGH, Mass. -- ExaGrid Systems, Inc. (http://www.exagrid.com), the leader in cost-effective and scalable disk-based backup solutions with data de-duplication, today announced that it has enhanced its Disk-based Backup System by adding the ability to cross-protect up to 9 major data center locations (multi-site backup capabilities), advanced backup-job-aware reporting and expanded backup capacities. These product enhancements allow customers to significantly improve the way they manage their backups by allowing major data centers in multiple locations to backup to disk with de-duplication and then cross-protect one another, and by providing unprecedented visibility into the true status of backup data throughout its lifecycle within the system.

“Our lab validation testing reveals that ExaGrid is one of the most comprehensive disk-based backup solutions on the market,” said Jeff Boles, senior analyst with The Taneja Group. “ExaGrid easily performed, scaled, and de-duplicated right out-of-the-box. ExaGrid’s scalability makes their performance claims even more compelling. While ExaGrid’s system performance starts out high, ExaGrid also enables users to scale to far greater performance and capacity than similar devices from the competition, and to get there in a pay-as-you-grow model that drives down the total ownership costs of disk-based backup for growing organizations. Few vendors offer disk-based backup solutions today with the pay-as-you-grow scalability, high performance, ease of use, and the full feature set that ExaGrid brings to the table.”
