Acronis Disaster Recovery Positioned Highest Among Challengers on Ability to Execute
Reading, UK - April 29, 2015 - Acronis, a global leader in new generation data protection, today announced that the company has been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the "Challengers" quadrant in the "Magic Quadrant for Disaster Recovery as a Service"1 worldwide report, published April 21, 2015. As part of the report, Acronis Disaster Recovery Service was evaluated on completeness of vision and ability to execute, positioned the highest among the challengers on ability to execute.
According to the Gartner report, the DRaaS market originally emerged to address IT organisations' need to support increasingly aggressive recovery-time targets, as well as more frequent and lower-cost testing while understaffed - without requiring a significant time commitment by existing IT staff. By 2018, the number of organisations using disaster recovery as a service will exceed the number of organisations using traditional, syndicated recovery services, the Gartner report noted.
