Enterprise IT experience, the DCIG team reviewed and critiqued solutions
against essential factors enterprises need when evaluating and selecting
comprehensive data protection solutions and what each solution provider offers
to differentiate themselves from competing solutions.

to be a strong year for HYCU with yet another outstanding industry
acknowledgment," said Simon Taylor, CEO, HYCU, Inc. "As more and more
organizations are looking to take advantage of what Azure Cloud has to offer,
