The complexity of IT environments today has made datacentre modernisation an urgent priority. In the event of data loss or corruption, this can cost companies a large sum of money. Proactively addressing risks through better protection costs far less money. That’s likely a big reason why when ESG interviewed Veeam® and Cisco UCS customers, they stated that the shared traits of reliability, performance and manageability of these solutions were crucial factors.

Additionally, ESG validation testing proved what IT already knows:

• Veeam and Cisco UCS are better together
• The performance of the Veeam/Cisco combination is 28.9% higher than the alternative assessed by ESG Lab
• Price/performance of Veeam/Cisco solution is 49% lower than the examined alternative
• With Veeam/Cisco, configuring a backup job, copy job, replication job and instant recovery is easy, and the solution proved to be scalable
