Confirmation of Leadership
The new Gartner Critical Capabilities report was published shortly after Commvault was recognized as a leader for the 15th consecutive year in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Backup and Data Protection Platforms.
The combination of high ratings in the Magic Quadrant and Critical Capabilities demonstrates not only the strategic vision for platform development but also its practical effectiveness in real-world use scenarios.
Commvault Cloud Platform Development
Commvault continues to expand the capabilities of Commvault Cloud with a focus on comprehensive cybersecurity resilience for modern organizations.
The latest platform updates are aimed at:
- centralized management of hybrid, multicloud, and SaaS environments;
- enhanced protection of corporate data;
- ensuring the resilience of digital identities;
- accelerated recovery after cyberattacks;
- support for artificial intelligence use cases.
With the Commvault Cloud Unity platform, companies can define guaranteed “clean” recovery points, validate recovery in isolated environments, and quickly restore critical data, applications, and digital identities.
Cyber Resilience as the Foundation of Modern IT Infrastructure
Today, backup is no longer limited to data preservation. It becomes a key element of a cyber resilience strategy, allowing organizations to minimize the impact of ransomware attacks, reduce downtime, and ensure business continuity.
Commvault’s high ratings in the Gartner Critical Capabilities 2026 report confirm that modern data protection platforms must combine backup, cyber recovery, digital identity protection, and centralized infrastructure management into a single solution.
