Fifteen years ago, email connectivity outside of virtual private networks was limited. Since then, the messaging marketplace has seen an explosion in technology that has resulted in an ever-growing number of mobile devices and cloud computing solutions from which to access email, as well as an unprecedented level of security measures required of a shrinking number of IT administrators to maintain control of their networks. Quest Software released the first version of MessageStats® in 2001 to help address critical business needs driven by the evolution of messaging, and, now, celebrates 10 years of innovation in email reporting and analysis.
The role of channel partners is increasingly critical in helping organisations successfully evaluate, implement and manage leading technologies that support essential business needs. Reinforcing an overarching commitment to its global partner ecosystem, Quest Software continues to gain traction with Quest Partner Circle (QPC), a unified partner program designed to fuel mutual growth and revenue generation.
Quest Software Inc. shares ten predictions for technology trends and practices in 2012 based on its latest The Experts Conference (TEC) Survey.
Highly publicised data security breaches serve as important reminders that data access governance must be an ongoing corporate imperative. Too often, however, the process of controlling access to vital information assets is inefficient, ineffective and lacks the agility to adapt easily to dynamic growth and change. According to a Gartner report on security and risk management lessonsi, data access decisions should be based on an assessment of the risks and benefits of a given level of data sharing, as well as an assessment of the process, people and technology that can securely enable that sharing. As a leader in identity and access management, Quest Software utilises a six-step process for guiding assessments and improving data access controls.
The data management industry is experiencing more disruption than at any other time in more than 20 years. Technologies around cloud, Hadoop and NoSQL are changing the way people manage and analyse data, but the general lack of skill sets required to manage these new technologies continues to be a significant barrier to mainstream adoption. IT departments are left without a clear understanding of whether development and DBA teams, whose expertise lies with traditional technology platforms, can effectively support these new systems. Toad® for Cloud Databases addresses the skill-set shortage head-on, empowering database professionals to directly apply their existing skills to emerging big data systems through an easy-to-use and familiar SQL-based interface for managing non-relational data.
Quest Software, Inc. has certified vRanger®, its market-leading VMware backup, replication and recovery software, on HP StoreOnce Backup Systems to deliver a safe, efficient and cost-effective solution for backing up and recovering VMware environments.
Quest Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSFT) has announced the availability of Quest NetVault® Backup 8.6 and NetVault SmartDisk 1.5, the latest updates to the NetVault family of data protection solutions.
Quest Software, Inc. (NASDAQ: QSFT) has announced that it has acquired ChangeBASE, a privately held software provider based in the UK, which specialises in automated application analysis, remediation and conversion for target platforms including Windows 7 and 8, Internet Explorer 8 and 9, Terminal Server/Remote Desktop Session Host, VDI, and application virtualisation.
Building on its more than 10 years as a leader in the migration market, Quest Software, Inc. now offers a solution that helps organisations migrate from on-premise Microsoft Exchange or Google Gmail environments to the Microsoft Office 365 cloud email platform, letting them take advantage of the functionality and convenience presented by the cloud.
The virtual world is the norm for most IT departments today, but their data protection strategies often remain stuck in the physical realm. Backup and recovery solutions that excel in physical environments don’t fare as well in their virtual counterparts, however, often resulting in excessive resource usage that starves virtual machines and slows business operations to a crawl. It’s time for organisations to get serious about fully maximising the cost-savings and efficiency that virtualisation delivers, with a data protection plan specifically built for the virtual environment. Quest Software lets customers meet this need and optimise their virtual data protection strategies by combining market-leading VMware backup, replication and recovery with critical data reduction and granular application recovery capabilities.
