Customer Successes


“When we deployed Backup Exec 2012 in production, it immediately reduced our backup window by almost 24 hours every week. Backup Exec 2012 has afforded us the ability to base weekly full backups from an enumerated virtual machine image thereby providing best in class data protection.”
- Brandon Mosak, Network Manager, Task Force Tips, Inc.



“Symantec Backup Exec 2012 is a user friendly solution that maintains the highest degree of data protection. The first time I saw Backup Exec’s new user interface, I knew it was going to revolutionize how I manage our backup environment.”
David Lewis, LAN administrator, Health New England



“We have trusted Backup Exec to backup our data for several years and the transition from a physical server infrastructure to virtual infrastructure didn’t change our choice in a data protection solution. Symantec’s V-Ray technology embedded in Backup Exec allowed us to easily expand to a virtual environment and feel confident in our decision.”
Jason Drake, Director of Infrastructure and Security, Premiere Global Sports.
