EMC has maintained its leadership position in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Data Center Backup and Recovery Software for the 17th consecutive year– a triumph no other vendor in the IT industry has achieved. We believe, with this recognition, EMC’s consistent commitment to enabling customers with industry-leading data protection offerings they can trust rings loud and clear. With products like the Data Protection Suite and ProtectPoint, EMC continues to lead customers through their data protection transformation.
The north star of our innovation continues to be “Data Protection Everywhere.” We pride ourselves on providing customers with best-of-breed data protection solutions where they need it and how they want it. Customers are utilizing a wide variety of consumption models, from on-premise traditional infrastructures to virtualized environments, including hybrid and public clouds. Protection and availability of this data is dictated by the required service levels for recoverability. EMC proudly covers all consumption models and protects data across the continuum of availability requirements with a portfolio of offerings that is both broad and deep. We credit our long-standing success to the belief that one size does not fit all in terms of data protection solutions.
At EMC we are constantly innovating to stay ahead of the continuous shifts in data protection challenges faced by our customers. The fact is that most of our customers are currently living in two worlds—the first being traditional IT centric, and the second with their eye on a more modern approach. With that, their mindset and needs are evolving. We address the need for protection for the modern data center by continuing to deliver new ways to reduce cost and complexity enabling organizations to accelerate their IT transformation.
With established data protection solutions such as the EMC Data Protection Suite Family, we ensure our customers meet their current business needs to protect their data, while also taking advantage of new approaches with technologies required to transform for the future. EMC bridges the gap between the two worlds with offerings such as ProtectPoint, as well as the recently announced Enterprise Copy Data Management and VCE Data Protection Appliance. These solutions were created to meet the evolving needs of our customers in today’s world, enabling greater levels of agility, management, and simplicity.
Gartner’s continued positioning of EMC as a leader in this category we believe validates that we are consistent in continuing to provide our customers with innovative data protection solutions built for the modern data center.
