Recovery Point Highly Ranked in Gartner 2016 DRaaS Magic Quadrant
Gaithersburg, MD (PRWEB) June 22, 2016 -- Recovery Point Systems, a leading national provider of integrated business resiliency solutions, announced today that it achieved a prominent ranking in Gartner’s newly released 2016 Magic Quadrant for Disaster Recovery as a Service.
"All of us at Recovery Point are pleased to have earned an outstanding position in Gartner’s industry defining report among a very high caliber field of competitors,” said Marc Langer, Recovery Point President. “In particular, Recovery Point is proud to be ranked among the top 5 in ability to execute for its clients.”
Langer noted that only 20 of the hundreds of DRaaS providers even gained inclusion in the 2016 Magic Quadrant. “We are especially pleased to rank so highly and to be recognized for our high satisfaction scores from clients,” Langer said. Gartner also recognized Recovery Point as one of the few DRaaS service providers capable of supporting complex data center configurations, including mainframe, Linux, AIX and iSeries, as well as the windows based solutions commonly supported by the typical DRaaS vendors. Gartner also cited Recovery Point’s no-cost Proof of Concept Trials as one of the company’s strengths.
Gartner’s commentary on Recovery Point’s strengths included:
• Experience in Complex Environments
“Recovery Point is well positioned to support heterogeneous configurations that contain combinations of VMware, Microsoft Hyper-V and Open Virtual Machine Format (OVF) virtual machines, as well as IBM AIX LPARS, IBM iSeries LPARS and mainframe z/VM, z/Linux and z/OS LPARS. As such, it is one of only a few providers with years of experience with supporting large complex data center configurations.”
• High Customer Satisfaction
“Recovery Point received high satisfaction scores from its reference customers for secure operations, service quality and quality of technical support. Some of this satisfaction is attributed to the fact that it does not oversubscribe its facility space and that the services are concurrently maintainable — allowing it to provide a 100% uptime guarantee without the need for maintenance window exceptions.”
• Proof of Concept Trials
“The sales cycle is hands-on. It involves credentialed technicians and network assessments to help ensure a low cost of ownership, as well as PoC implementations to prove the viability of a complex solution.”
