ExaGrid Wins Three New Industry Awards at MSP Channel Awards
ExaGrid offers the industry’s only tiered backup storage solution with AI-driven Retention Time Locking (RTL), including network-isolated tiering (tiered air gap), automated threat detection and protection, delayed deletion, and immutability for ransomware recovery. The company today announced it has won three awards at the inaugural annual MSP Channel Awards ceremony held in London on December 3, 2025, including:
- Backup and Disaster Recovery Innovation of the Year
- Storage Hardware Innovation of the Year
- Storage Vendor of the Year
Many managed service providers (MSPs) use ExaGrid's tiered backup storage technology to deliver Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS), Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS), and IT data center outsourcing services to their customers. In 2025, ExaGrid introduced multiple new features that help MSPs track customer data usage and independently restore individual customer data following a ransomware attack, further enhancing ExaGrid’s value to MSPs.
The newly established MSP Channel Awards build upon the former SDC Awards to better reflect today’s rapidly evolving IT landscape. As managed services reshape technology delivery—from digital transformation and cybersecurity to cloud computing, data, and automation—these awards recognize businesses, partners, and individuals making a tangible impact within the channel.
ExaGrid’s tiered backup storage continues to receive industry recognition, earning nine industry awards in 2025, including:
- Data Breakthrough Award – Data Backup Solution of the Year
- Network Computing Award – Air-Gapped Ransomware Recovery Product of the Year
- Network Computing Award – Company of the Year
- Network Computing Award – Storage Product of the Year
- Storage Awards – Channel Partner Program
- Storage Awards – Storage Company of the Year
- MSP Channel Awards – Backup and Disaster Recovery Innovation of the Year
- MSP Channel Awards – Storage Hardware Innovation of the Year
- MSP Channel Awards – Storage Vendor of the Year
Bill Andrews, President and CEO of ExaGrid, said: “We are honored to win three awards at the inaugural MSP Channel Awards, especially as we deepen partnerships with leading MSPs and continue introducing new features that benefit MSPs. We thank everyone who voted for us, along with our partners and customers for their support, and the industry for its continued recognition of our tiered backup storage.”
