TechTarget Releases 2017 Products of the Year Finalists

If you’re like me, it’s easy to get lost in end-of-the-year lists. Unlike music and movies, enterprise technology doesn’t really get its share of list time. TechTarget has rounded up its top seven finalists for its 2017 Backup and Recovery products of the year list. The list features some big names (IBM), as well as some smaller names that you might not be so familiar with. The names in this list showcase notable changes in the backup and recovery space.

Most notable is how cloud technology has established an integral spot in a number of the leading backup products. That being said, because customers are looking for data protection across multiple platforms, TechTarget notes that physical and virtual recovery methods remain relevant.
