Independent research firm , IDC , recently conducted a random survey across Commvault ’ s worldwide customer base to provide a third-party confirmation of the benefits that Commvault can deliver to customers . A new IDC White Paper , commissioned by Commvault , summarises the results of the survey and further reinforces how the company is helping customers navigate their complex data management challenges .
According to the study , Commvault customers have been able to simplify operations , keep costs in check , and lower risk by reducing downtime and operational exposure . They have been able to achieve these benefits while also improving recovery capabilities and data coverage . Customers have been able to drive value back to their organisations through productivity gains in IT staff and across the organisation . While organisations may look at such savings as an opportunity to improve the corporate bottom line , many Commvault customers are using these freed-up costs and employee hours to become more agile organisations and to focus on more progressive data transformation .
Commvault is also helping partners enable customers with the capabilities they need to address increased compliance regulations and service level agreements . “ As the IDC White Paper ’ s findings indicate , being able to reduce complexity as well as GDPR compliance risk is of tremendous value to our customers ,” said Damon Robertson , Managing Director , COOLSPIRiT . “ When you add these on top of Commvault ’ s ability to increase uptime , simplify data operations and boost productivity , it is easy to understand why Commvault is an important partner for us .”
