OCEANPORT, N.J. — November 25, 2002 — CommVault^® Galaxy™, the backup and recovery software that provides high-performance data management and protection in Windows, UNIX and Linux heterogeneous enterprises, has been selected as Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) Magazine's "Editors' Choice: Products We Love" for Backup. MCP Magazine's experts named Galaxy the backup product they can't live without because of several differentiating features including: Galaxy's browser interface, logical data management, granular data recovery, seamless SAN/NAS integration, powerful media management and first-rate training and support.

J. Peter Bruzzese, MCSE+Internet, MCT, who authored the MCP feature article, "Editors' Choice: Backup," states, "Let's say you had all the money in the world and had to pick the best backup software. What would it be? For me, it's CommVault's Galaxy. My reasons are simple: The interface is easy to work with, and the support and training teams behind the product are first rate. Also, I like Galaxy's approach to enterprise storage: It views backup data logically instead of physically. This means that to do a restore, I just have to tell Galaxy the time to bring a system back to. Galaxy figures out the media that's needed."
