Actifio Secures Spot as a ‘Visionary’ in the Gartner’s Magic Quadrant

Actifio has been positioned by Gartner in the "Visionaries" quadrant of the 2014 "Magic Quadrant: Enterprise Backup Software and Integrated Appliances" report.

"We're pleased to have been recognized once again as a 'Visionary'," said Ash Ashutosh, Actifio Founder & CEO. "We see this as further validation of our founding premise... that backup needn't be treated as a siloed, expensive, and underutilized insurance policy against a bad outcome. Enterprise data should be treated as an asset, managed holistically as part of an integrated copy data management model, and leveraged to provide improved resiliency, agility, and access to the cloud."

In the report, Gartner states, "By 2018, 40 percent of organizations will augment with additional products or replace their current backup application" and that "by 2016, 20 percent of organizations, up from 7 percent today, will employ only snapshot and replication techniques, abandoning traditional backup/ recovery." Actifio believes that Copy Data Virtualization addresses user frustrations with traditional backup and recovery approaches for enterprises and cloud service providers.

Actifio delivers copy data virtualization.
