(BUSINESS WIRE) -- The original source-language text of this announcement is the official, authoritative version. Translations are provided as an accommodation only, and should be cross-referenced with the source-language text, which is the only version of the text intended to have legal effect.ExaGrid®, the industry’s only Tiered Backup Storage solution, today announced that it had its strongest Q3 in the company’s history, for the quarter ending September 30, 2023.
ExaGrid had a record third quarter and had just under 20% growth as compared to Q3 of 2022. ExaGrid continues to grow at about 20% per year. The company was Free Cash Flow (FCF) positive, P&L positive, and EBITDA positive for its 11th consecutive quarter. ExaGrid added 130 new customers in Q3 2023, including 2 large seven-figure new customer deals. ExaGrid has more than 4,000 active upper mid-market to large enterprise customers that use ExaGrid Tiered Backup Storage to protect their data. ExaGrid’s growth is accelerating, and the company is hiring to expand its sales teams worldwide.
“ExaGrid is continuing to expand its reach and now has sales teams in more than 30 countries worldwide and customer installations in over 80 countries. We hit 4,000 active customer installations in Q3. ExaGrid was Cash, P&L, and EBITDA positive for the 11th quarter in a row. Outside of the United States, our business in Canada, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific is rapidly growing and is now 45% of the business and we are adding more sales teams around the globe,” said Bill Andrews, President and CEO of ExaGrid.
“Years ago, ExaGrid realized that no vendor was building storage specifically for backup, as they were all selling primary storage products as backup storage targets, which is expensive, or they were selling inline deduplication appliances, which are slow for backups and restores and result in costly forklift upgrades. Backup storage has unique needs, due to large backup jobs, incrementals, synthetic fulls, backup rotation, long-term retention, and many other aspects that make backup storage different than primary storage. ExaGrid’s unique Tiered Backup Storage was built specifically to improve backup performance, restore performance, scalability as data grows, security, ransomware recovery, disaster recovery, and improve the economics of backup, with low costs up front and over time,” said Andrews. “Primary storage is not as fast for large backup jobs, is typically not scalable, is very expensive for longer-term retention, and it is network-facing, making it vulnerable to security attacks. Inline deduplication appliances are slow for backups, slow for restores, are not scalable, and are also network-facing making them vulnerable to security attacks.
“ExaGrid prides itself on having a highly differentiated product that just works, does what we say it does, is sized properly, is well supported, and just gets the job done. We can back up these claims with our 95% net customer retention, NPS score of +81, and the fact that 94% of our customers have our Retention Time-Lock for Ransomware Recovery feature turned on, and 99.1% of our customers are on our yearly maintenance and support plan,” said Andrews.
Highlights of Q3 2023:
Two large seven-figure new customer deals in the quarter
11th consecutive quarter of Cash, EBITDA, and P&L positive operations
