3 Powerful Features You Can’t Live Without

In a new report released by the Data Center Intelligence Group (DCIG), Zerto earned a TOP 5 ranking for backup in Microsoft Azure. The DCIG provides third-party analysis of cloud, data protection, and data storage technologies to the IT industry. It evaluated several backup solutions for the TOP 5 Azure Cloud Backup Solutions report, giving Zerto high marks for its powerful combination of backup and disaster recovery services.

Azure’s Growing Market Share

The DCIG report states that Microsoft Azure is expanding its share of the public cloud market—it is currently used by 69 percent of enterprises and 63 percent of organizations of all sizes. Azure’s many features make it a great choice for a public cloud platform, but some organizations need a more robust backup and recovery solution than Azure can offer. This is where Zerto comes in.

Combining Zerto with Microsoft Azure helps businesses achieve IT resilience by simplifying data protection and disaster recovery. Zerto’s single, comprehensive solution also offers fast, flexible workload migration and Continuous Data Protection (CDP) that works for both hybrid- and multi-cloud environments.
