MARLBOROUGH, MASS.-- ExaGrid, the industry’s only Tiered Backup Storage solution, today announced that it has been named as a Representative Vendor in the November 2023 Gartner Market Guide for Enterprise Backup Storage Appliances.

Organizations can use a Market Guide to understand how the status of an emerging market aligns with future plans. In addition, since Gartner has published over 100 Market Guide research notes, IT and strategic leaders can gain a broad view of many markets, including mature and smaller markets, in an easy-to-read format.

Key points from the Market Guide for Enterprise Backup Storage Appliances[1] report:

·Enterprise backup storage appliances refer to storage appliances that are optimized for the primary purpose of storing backup data.
·An increasing number of enterprises favor enterprise backup storage appliances over internal storage or general-purpose external storage for backups because of the former’s ease of use.
·Target backup storage appliances may be optimized to work in sync with backup applications to achieve immutability, high storage efficiency, security and high-speed ingest and restore.

“We are honored to be recognized in this Market Guide, which includes vendors in the enterprise backup storage appliance market and helps inform organizations when it is beneficial to use backup storage appliances rather than other types of storage,” said Bill Andrews, President and CEO of ExaGrid.
