MINNEAPOLIS--()--Code 42 Software Inc., developers of award-winning onsite, offsite and online backup solutions for consumers, businesses and the enterprise, today announced its CrashPlan PROe enterprise backup solution was evaluated and received a rating of “excellent” in Gartner, Inc.’s recent “Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Endpoint Backup”1 report.
“As BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and the consumerization of IT continue to influence standard business practices, Code 42 is poised to solidify its leadership position in the rapidly evolving enterprise data backup space.”
According to Gartner, “The increased mobility of the workforce and business adoption of tablets is forcing organizations to face the challenge of protecting and backing up the portable devices their employees use. As a result, we are receiving an increasing volume of user inquiries on endpoint backup. This Critical Capabilities report provides detailed stack ranking of 11 endpoint backup products against 12 critical capabilities and across two use cases and aims to help organizations use this research to narrow down their enterprise endpoint backup product shortlist.”
“We consider our ‘excellent’ rating by Gartner to be confirmation of our successful track record in delivering comprehensive data backup solutions that arm enterprises with greater levels of security, flexibility and efficiency,” said Matthew Dornquast, co-founder and CEO, Code 42 Software. “As BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and the consumerization of IT continue to influence standard business practices, Code 42 is poised to solidify its leadership position in the rapidly evolving enterprise data backup space.”
The Critical Capabilities report is designed to compare the two common use cases—mobile-workforce- centric versus office-workforce-centric—against 12 critical capabilities. This research focuses on the following critical capabilities that differentiate competing endpoint backup products: device/OS diversity, content variety, heterogeneous restore, scalability, performance, data reduction techniques, data capture frequency, security, administrator experience, user experience, cloud services support and e-discovery functions.
