The editorial staff at Angel Business Communications validated entries in the competition’s 31 categories to ensure each met the required criteria before forwarding a shortlist of finalists for public voting throughout October. Winners were announced at a gala evening event in London.
The Storage Company of the Year category was open to any company supplying a broad range of storage products and services in the EMEA market. Tegile was voted for by end users as being the top storage company of the year over eight other finalists, including Imation, Nexenta, Pure Storage, Quantum and Violin Memory.
Tegile provides a broad portfolio of Intelligent Flash Arrays that allows customers to choose a flash storage solution that is right for them. The company’s hybrid arrays are faster than legacy solutions and less expensive than all-flash arrays, to provide the ideal balance of performance and cost for a wide range of consolidated and virtualised business workloads. The company’s all-flash arrays deliver enterprise-grade performance without the potential for any service interruption or delay, making them an ideal solution for applications that require the highest performance and low latencies.
“Our company’s goal is to help customers accelerate their businesses by changing the performance and economics of their mission-critical storage. An award like this one, where end users ultimately decide the winner, is especially gratifying because it is a validation that we not only are achieving that mission but are doing it better than anyone else,” said Paul Silver, vice president, EMEA, Tegile. “Everyone here at Tegile is extremely appreciative to those who voted for us in this year’s SVC Awards, and are thrilled to have been named the Storage Company of the Year.”
