Forrester recently published the "Forrester Wave: Data Resilience Solutions Q4 2024," which illustrated a shakeup from the latest 2022 version to the 2024 version by dropping two of the three former "Leaders" to "Strong Performers," and elevating two former "Strong Performers" to "Leaders."

As a result, Commvault was the only vendor that has maintained a position as a "Leader" in all the publications of the Forrester Wave for Data Resilience since its inception in 2019.

What enabled Commvault to maintain and elevate the status of a top "Leader" in the Wave from 2022 to 2024? In the words of Forrester: "Commvault's strategic strengths include a commitment to innovation through R&D and acquisition as well as a well-developed partner ecosystem of channel, technology, go-to-market, and infrastructure partners."

Commvault has delivered not only Backup-as-a-Service for hybrid cloud and container workloads but expanded most recently to modern cloud-native distributed application resilience services through the acquisitions of Appranix, recently renamed Cloud Rewind, and Clumio for cloud-native data heavy workloads.

As cloud-native customers look for hyperscaled environment protection and recovery, Commvault now offers highly differentiated cloud and cyber resilience capabilities, thanks to the ease of onboarding, agentless, and quick-to-realize value of the modern cloud-native software it acquired.

Not only did Forrester recognize the distinct differentiation of Commvault's modern cloud-native software capabilities by rating them with the highest possible score for the "Hyperscale Cloud/IaaS" and "Kubernetes and Containers" criteria, but other reports also ranked and scored Commvault's cloud-native capabilities as the most advanced in the industry.

In the 2024 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Enterprise Backup and Recovery Software Solutions, Commvault was ranked as the top vendor for the "Hybrid/Multicloud" and "SaaS" use cases. In addition, Commvault was positioned as the top "Leader" in GigaOm's 2024 Sonar for Cloud Native Data Protection. With the acquisition of Appranix, Commvault also has pioneered the cloud infrastructure recovery assurance market cloud-native applications.¹

Not only is Commvault generating results in the leading industry analyst reports, but it also has reported double-digit revenue growth, positive cash flow, and profitability five quarters running.
