Veeam Software, innovative provider of data protection, disaster recovery and management solutions for virtual datacenter environments, begins 2012 with Veeam Backup & Replication selected as the winner of the Virtual Business Continuity category and Veeam ONE as winner of the Virtual Management & Optimization category in the 2012 Reader’s Choice Awards from Virtualization Review.

Virtualization Review is the first and only print publication solely devoted to IT virtualization. The 2012 awards are chosen by the readers of Virtualization Review and presented to vendors in 14 categories ranging from Server Virtualization to Virtualization Security. An e-mail invitation was sent to Virtualization Review readers in September 2011 to vote on more than 250 products. Responses were collected during a one-week period. A team of editors reviewed the results to ensure that they legitimately came from readers.

“We are honored to receive these accolades for the second year from the readers of Virtualization Review," said Ratmir Timashev, President and CEO, Veeam Software. "We expect 2012 to be a great year for Veeam as we continue to listen to our customers, providing them with the best data protection and virtualization management technology.”

“The Annual Reader’s Choice Awards again provides a close-up opportunity to assess the dynamic vendor innovations taking place across the virtualization and cloud industry," said Matt Morollo, Vice President, Publishing, 1105 Enterprise Computing Group. "This effort is managed with the utmost integrity to provide the ecosystem of IT virtualization adopters with a detailed look at best-of-breed technologies.”
