VERITAS Software Corporation has been placed in the "leaders" quadrant in the most recent Gartner Magic Quadrant reports of the enterprise backup and SAN management software markets.

The Gartner Magic Quadrants evaluate vendors in specific markets by assessing each company's technology, service, support, features, functionality and viability. Companies are positioned in the quadrant based on their vision and ability to execute that vision. Gartner classifies companies as "leaders" if they are performing well, have a clear vision of market direction, and are actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the market.

This is the third year in a row that VERITAS has been placed in the leader quadrant in SAN Management. Products from VERITAS that have led to the high ranking include VERITAS NetBackup software. Recent enhancements to VERITAS NetBackup software make backup management more streamlined and increase the speed of backup and recovery at the mailbox level of Microsoft Exchange environments.

VERITAS Global Data Manager has also been updated. It provides administrators with a dashboard view of global data protection environments, including VERITAS NetBackup and VERITAS Backup Exec software for small to medium businesses.

The VERITAS SANPoint Control and VERITAS Storage Reporter products help companies manage multi-vendor, networked storage environments with in-depth reporting, better efficiency and improved storage utilization. VERITAS has helped lead the adoption of SAN management standards through its participation in the Storage Networking Industry Association (SNIA).

"VERITAS focuses exclusively on software, leaving to our customers the choice of hardware and storage platforms. This approach continues to be successful, as our customers want the flexibility to adapt to changing conditions and the simplification that only software can provide in a heterogeneous world," said Mark Bregman, executive vice president of product operations, VERITAS Software.

VERITAS Software provides data protection, storage management, high availability and disaster recovery software to 86 percent of the Fortune 500.
