By: via Business Wire

Data resiliency pioneer offers exemplary customer experience, adds new customer distinction to complement impressive NPS score of 89

Druva, the first and only at-scale SaaS platform for data resiliency, today announced that it has been recognized as the only Customers’ Choice in the 2023 Gartner® Peer Insights™ “Voice of the Customer” Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) Vendor Report. Druva’s distinction as a Customers’ Choice is based on an overall rating of (4.8/5) and 96% willingness to recommend over the last 12 months. The following scores showcase Druva’s ability to provide a superior DRaaS experience: Service & Support (4.9/5), Evaluation & Contracting (4.9/5), Product Capabilities (4.8/5) and Integration & Deployment (4.8/5).

As companies shift to the cloud, they need to be able to protect against both new attack vectors as well as traditional recovery scenarios. As a result, disaster recovery has taken center stage as one of the highest priorities for IT teams, as the ability to recover can make or break a business. With Druva’s industry-leading cloud disaster recovery solution, organizations can improve business resilience while reducing costs and complexity – with no hardware, one-click recovery, and enhanced business continuity.

“Every business needs to be prepared to recover from downtime, whether that’s from a cyber attack or a natural disaster. At Druva, we handle every data protection and recovery need so IT teams can have peace of mind,” said Milind Borate, co-founder and Chief Development Officer at Druva. “We constantly think about how we can better support our customers to maintain business continuity, and we’re thrilled to receive recognition as the only Customers’ Choice leader in this report. To us, this recognition acknowledges our commitment to our customers, and we will continue working to ensure every business has guaranteed recovery capabilities any time they need it.”

Druva is the only data protection vendor that has been recognized with a Customers’ Choice recognition in two Gartner® Peer Insights™ Voice of the Customer reports this year, with the first recognition for Druva as a Customers’ Choice in January’s Enterprise Backup and Recovery Software Solutions Report.

Druva customer feedback shared on Gartner Peer Insights includes:

  • “Druva saved us twice after a ransomware attack but [reduced] the recovery time to more than half of what it could have been." – IT Manager, Manufacturing Industry
  • “Druva setup was very simple and streamlined. No physical hardware was needed, only needed to install a VM in the environment to push the backups to the cloud.” – Network Engineer, Software Industry
  • "Druva is the best solution out there for DRaaS and ransomware needs. I can easily set up all the different backup fundamentals, restoring is very easy too. Along with that – the multi-location recovery capabilities add further confidence to our Druva investment." – Backup SME, IT Services Industry

Druva’s all-time rating on Gartner Peer Insights is 4.8/5 stars, with 622 published customer reviews in the last 12 months.
