Commvault received the highest score in the Current Offering category.

According to the report, "Forrester evaluated the strengths and weaknesses of top data resiliency vendors.

Commvault also received the highest score among all vendors in the platform support and customer feedback criteria.

The report goes on to explain that, "[Commvault has] the most comprehensive support for technologies that enterprises deploy — applications, databases, operating systems, public cloud, containers, big data platforms, and storage infrastructure — Commvault also offers archive management and eDiscovery capabilities. [Commvault] can move data between tiers — from on-premises to the hyperscale public cloud and within the cloud — depending on enterprise policy and offers easy scalability both within and outside of the data center."

"We are very pleased with our position as a Leader in the Forrester Wave ranking for data resiliency, as we think it's in line with our multiyear track record of doing exceptionally well in independent third-party assessments that depend on feedback from our customers, who are some of the most important enterprises in the world," said N.
