Commvault has celebrated the winners of its inaugural Commvault Customer Innovation Awards during the company’s flagship global event – Connections: ‘Innovate with Confidence.’
“Whatever challenge arises, IT professionals are ready to innovate and keep pace as their business pursues new opportunities,” said Sanjay Mirchandani, Commvault’s President and CEO. “They have never been more critical than they are today, which is why I’m pleased to recognize our inaugural Customer Innovation Award winners, who deliver value for their organizations every single day.”
In recognition of this and the incredible learnings Commvault has taken from these organizations, the winners were selected for their outstanding innovation in the implementation of Commvault data solutions across three categories:
• Digital Transformation – Penn State Health
• Automation of Data – RWTH Aachen University
• Governance & Compliance – Tata Consultancy Services
Outside of the awards, Commvault also welcomed leaders from American Pacific Mortgage, Oral Roberts University, CHS Inc. and Swinerton Inc. who participated in panel sessions and shared perspectives at the show.
Michele Buschman, Chief Information Officer at American Pacific Mortgage, discussed the critical value of Metallic within Commvault’s Intelligent Data Services provision, across all infrastructure within her organization, stating:
“At American Pacific Mortgage, our mission is to deliver the dream of home ownership. Since our industry is so cyclical, we need technology that gives us confidence that our vast stores of data are safe and easily accessible. We migrated to Metallic so our data management can move as fast as our business. We went from taking two days to restore data files to less than five minutes. Metallic has met the moment allowing us to make critical decisions to help our homeowners achieve their goals.”
