ExaGrid Has More Than 200 Customer Installations

ExaGrid Systems, Inc. has
surpassed the 200 customer installation mark worldwide. This is the
industry’s second largest installed customer base for disk-based backup
systems with data de-duplication. ExaGrid’s expanding number of
customer installations is further evidence of the rapidly growing list
of companies deciding to either augment or replace tape with a
disk-based backup system.

“We looked at several
different systems and even considered building our own, but no solution
could match the ExaGrid in terms of price, data de-duplication and
support,” said Jon Mahlbacher, Network Engineer with AMERICAN SYSTEMS,
a Virginia-based, 1,500 employee systems engineering, technical, and
managed services firm. “It all came together when we realized we could
deploy a two-site ExaGrid system and improve the speed and reliability
of our local backups while gaining the high availability we were
looking for in our disaster recovery plan.”

“Fifty-one
percent of ExaGrid’s customers have a primary site ExaGrid and still
make tapes for offsite storage, while the other forty-nine percent have
an ExaGrid at the primary site and an ExaGrid at an offsite location
entirely eliminating tape. This shows customers’ progress toward
complete tape elimination,” said Marc Crespi, VP of Product Management
with ExaGrid Systems, Inc.”

“Worldwide customer adoption of
the ExaGrid Disk-based Backup system continues to expand rapidly,” said
Bill Andrews, president and CEO of ExaGrid Systems, Inc. “By surpassing
the 200 customer installation mark, ExaGrid has the second largest
group of installed customers enjoying the benefits of a disk-based
backup system with data de-duplication. With the highest performance
and most scalable product at the best price, ExaGrid is a fast-growing
leader in the hot global market for disk-based backup.”

ExaGrid
customers come from key industries such as: Healthcare, Legal,
Engineering Services, Manufacturing, Education, Financial Services, and
Federal, State and Local Government.
