Advantages of ExaGrid backup appliances

1. Layered backup storage - The best of both worlds
   ExaGrid uses a tiered approach for backup storage. This approach combines the benefits of low-cost performance of primary storage disks with a deduplicated data repository for long-term retention. This allows organisations to benefit from fast backups and restores while saving costs.
2. Speed and Performance - The Turbo-Boost for your backups
   ExaGrid's appliances deliver impressive performance. They offer up to 3x faster backups, to 20x faster recovery and VM start-up performance and a backup window that remains fixed in length even as the data grows. This means your backup processes are more efficient and effective.
3. Landing Zone - Fast recovery actions at your fingertips
   ExaGrid uses a unique disk cache called the Landing Zone. The most recent backups are stored here, making recovery actions that use 90% of time from the last backup lightning fast. Moreover, the Landing Zone stores a full uncompressed backup, resulting in faster recovery times compared to devices that automatically de-deduplicate backups.
4. Ransomware recovery - Command in time of need
   ExaGrid has a unique approach with non-networked layers and air-gapped backup. This means that even after a ransomware attack, your data is safe and you can recover quickly.
5. Cost savings - Affordable long-term retention
   ExaGrid offers a cost-effective solution for long-term retention. ExaGrid's Repository Tier provides the lowest cost long-term retention of backup data. This enables organisations to store their data securely without paying the top price.

With ExaGrid's award-winning performance and innovative approaches, it is no surprise that they won the prestigious Data BreakThrough Award 2024.
