Vendors in the report are evaluated based on ability to
execute and completeness of vision
SINGAPORE, July 28, 2020 - Acronis, a global leader in
cyber protection, was positioned in the Visionaries quadrant in the
Gartner 2020 Magic Quadrant for Data Center Backup and Recovery
Solutions.
According to the report, "the move toward public cloud,
heightened concerns over ransomware, and complexities associated
with backup and data management are forcing I&O leaders to
rearchitect their backup infrastructure and explore alternative
solutions. This research provides analyses of backup and recovery
vendors."
"Over the past several years, Acronis has shifted its focus from
being a backup vendor to offering cyber protection, a holistic
approach that combines data protection and cybersecurity. It is
encouraging to be acknowledged as a Visionary by Gartner, and we
see this recognition as validation of the critical interdependency
between backup and cybersecurity," said Acronis Founder and CEO
Serg Bell.
While the Gartner 2020 Magic Quadrant for Data Center Backup and
Recovery Solutions report is focused on the data center, the
primary focus for Acronis has always been protecting the edge and
endpoint. Serg Bell continues, "We have a unique ability to provide
cyber protection for enterprises - focusing on edge and endpoint
workloads. Our newest solution Acronis Cyber Protect provides
AI-powered anti-malware protection, vulnerability assessments and
patch management, continuous data protection, URL filtering and
fast, reliable backup and disaster recovery, all from an
easy-to-manage console."
