"ExaGrid is continuing to grow with healthy financials, as shown by the past 16 quarters that we have maintained positive P&L, EBITDA, and free cash flow," said Bill Andrews, President and CEO of ExaGrid. "We have sales teams in over 30 countries worldwide, and customer installations in over 80 countries. We continue to invest in our channel partnerships and worked with more reseller partners in 2024 than ever before, and we plan to expand on our partner programs in 2025.
"We are proud to be the largest independent backup storage vendor. Backup storage has unique needs, due to large backup jobs, incrementals, synthetic fulls, backup rotation, long-term retention, security to recover from a ransomware attack, and many other aspects that make backup different than primary storage. ExaGrid's unique Tiered Backup Storage was built specifically to improve backup performance, restore performance, scalability as data grows, security, ransomware recovery, disaster recovery, and the economics of backup-with low costs up front and over time," said Andrews.
"2024 was a record year at ExaGrid. As we constantly innovate our Tiered Backup Storage, we look forward to announcing new updates, integrations, and product announcements throughout 2025 and expect continued growth and success. There are only 3 solutions in the market: standard primary storage disk which does not have dedicated features for backup and becomes expensive with retention; inline deduplication appliances such as Dell Data Domain and HPE StoreOnce that are slow for backups and restores, use a scale-up architecture, and don't have all the security required for today's backup environments; and ExaGrid Tiered Backup storage which offers many features for backup storage and many deep integrations with backup applications. When customers test ExaGrid side by side, they buy ExaGrid 83% of the time-the product speaks for itself."
