Analyst Quotes

“Organizations are struggling to increase application availability while simultaneously looking to ease the workload of their IT staff. There is also a strong need for recovery capabilities to be integrated with existing enterprise backup strategies so that the overall management process is simplified. Solutions that allow granular restoration of critical application data by end users, and that fit seamlessly into the backup infrastructure, address many important industry issues and should find a welcoming marketplace.” -Dave Russell, Vice President, Gartner

“CYA SmartRecovery adds significant value to traditional methods of protecting data within ECM systems by providing discrete object-level recovery with complete metadata integrity. CYA SmartRecovery’s ability to incrementally capture the entire contents of the ECM repository and store it on disk effectively reduces the data loss window to within 15 minutes, and accelerates information recovery without disrupting ongoing business operations.” - Lauren Whitehouse, Analyst, ESG

“A recovery strategy for ECM should include the ability to recover from incidents of partial or logical information loss. Companies with traditional disaster recovery solutions for ECM often possess a false sense of security, and don’t realize that if files are inadvertently deleted or corrupted within their ECM system the solution for recovery is to bring the entire system down and restore from the last full backup. CYA SmartRecovery empowers organizations to recover quickly and easily from partial information loss by locating content and its metadata, restoring them to their original state while the system stays online, and compressing the data loss window.” - Laura DuBois, Research Director for Storage Software, IDC

Customer & Partner Quotes

“Achillion has invested extensive resources into its ECM system in order to bring products to market faster and more efficiently. We take any threat to the information stored in it very seriously because we realize that if the data is rendered inaccessible, it degrades our investment and can cost us millions of dollars in lost revenue. CYA SmartRecovery gives us confidence that we can quickly and easily recover information without negatively impacting productivity, maximizing the odds that we’ll get our drugs to market on time and at the lowest possible cost.” - Alex Reznitsky, Systems Analyst, Achillion Pharmaceuticals

“ Katrina made us take a look at everything. We need to ensure that the content and metadata within the repository can be restored quickly to its original state at the object level, with minimal negative impact to productivity. We evaluated several applications, and chose CYA SmartRecovery because it was the only solution that would enable Cytec to quickly recover from partial data loss incidents without having to take the system offline.” - Darlene Krueger, EDS Database Administrator, Cytec

“Providing a reliable resource to women diagnosed with HIV and AIDS full of information, guidance and support is of the utmost priority for the betterment of all women, society as a whole and the global community.

Our choice was CYA SmartRecovery.” - Richard Averitt, Chief Operating Officer, The Well Project

"Daily cold backups aren’t a best practice for Documentum because the entire system must be brought down, which isn’t an option for us, and it results in a 24-hour data loss window. CYA SmartRecovery enables us to recover objects while online, and reduces our data loss window to just 15 minutes.” - Jerry Travers, Director, Enterprise Content Architecture, CCH

“CYA SmartRecovery allows us to back up the metadata, content and workflow states and maintain the data integrity while our customers are accessing their applications.” - Kathy Bishop, Information Technology Specialist, US Army Accessions Command
