“The addition of the CommVault engine to our appliance line creates a new and exciting revenue-generating opportunity for resellers,” said John Pearring, vice president of STORServer. “We invite our current channel partners and outside resellers to attend the road show stops so they can learn more about how this new product offering will affect their clients and sales.”

The CommVault BA600 model is sized for IT shops, corporate departments or branch offices with 1-5 terabytes (TBs) of data. Appliances are also available in three of the Enterprise Backup Appliance models (EBA800, EBA1200 and EBA2200) and are ideal for customers with up to one petabyte of data to protect. Prices for the appliances begin at less than $10,000 with the addition of software offered in both capacity and client/application-based license options.

“Based on CommVault Simpana 10, this solution brings users the right combination of technology, performance and scalability to handle increasing workloads of all types in all sizes of customer environments with ease and reliability,” said Echols. “We invite current and prospective resellers to join our road show stops to find out how we can make a difference for them and their customers.”
