"We’re pleased to be recognized by Cloud Computing for the value we provide our customers," said Gary Sevounts, CMO, Zetta.net. "Data loss or downtime can be very damaging for enterprises; our WAN-optimized, appliance-free backup and DR approach ensures our customers can recover their data without costly delays."

Zetta.net provides customers with a SaaS-based cloud backup and DR solution with built-in WAN acceleration, designed to rapidly move large datasets over the Internet. The company claims its customers have achieved transfer speeds of up to 5TB in 24 hours. Additionally, as the service requires no appliance or other new hardware, users can easily deploy and manage their backups, scale infinitely as their data requirements increase, and avoid the potentially costly recovery delay of waiting for a replacement appliance after a disaster.

According to Tom Phillips, IT Director at K.E. Andrews, the country’s largest energy industry-focused state and local tax firm, any level of data loss hurts. "Our customers depend on us for everything from day-to-day business to audits, validations, and other legal and regulatory endeavors, so not being able to restore their data quickly is simply unacceptable," said Phillips. "To ensure data can be accessed in the event of data loss, all of our mission-critical information is backed up to the cloud with Zetta.net — the peace of mind is priceless."
