CommVault Targets Public Sector with new UK Appointment
-- Company hires Justin Sutton-Parker, data storage and management expert --
READING, U.K. — September 5, 2005 — CommVault® Systems, a leading provider of Unified Data Management™ solutions, today announced the appointment of Justin Sutton-Parker as Senior Account Manager for the Public Sector in the south of England. Sutton-Parker brings a wealth of experience in data management and storage solutions.
Targeting central and local government, schools, higher education, and health in addition to other areas including charities and the emergency services, Sutton-Parker's key focus will be to further grow CommVault's existing footprint within the Public Sector by delivering solutions based on CommVault's unique QiNetix Suite including Backup & Restore, Data Migration, Data Compliancy, Recovery, SRM and in-depth Reporting.
Sutton-Parker experience includes Director level positions with data storage companies Ovedas and IT Partnerships (now Basilica), founding ITP's data storage specialist arm Data Partnerships. Others positions include 5 years with storage distributor Bell Micro Products.
Justin's enthusiasm for his appointment stems from his first-hand experience of CommVault's Qinetix Unified Data Management Solution in a previous role. "As a consultant I had many different clients, all with many different IT business scenarios to address. I can honestly say that CommVault kept coming up as the best answer, meeting all my clients' obligations — it really one of the best software suites I've ever seen."
CommVault's continued expansion has been the result of helping its customers to solve challenges such as fast recovery of critical data, rising tape costs, efficient hardware utilisation, shrinking backup windows, long-term compliance and storage resource management.
Sutton-Parker adds, "CommVault's unified approach to data management is one of CommVault's key benefits — it has a common unified technology engine, which covers all aspects of data management including backup & recovery, migration, compliance, reporting and restore, so it's a stronger financial and technical investment all round."
Alasdair Kilgour, UK managing director, CommVault, says, "Justin's appointment is another key step to our continued growth in the UK. We already have many satisfied public sector customers who are taking advantage of the cost savings and scalability that CommVault's unique unified data management solutions deliver. We expect the focus that Justin will bring to this sector to expand our customer base significantly."
