READING, UK, November 20, 2018 – DataCore Software has been named a leader in the 2018 WhatMatrix SDS & HCI Landscape Report.

WhatMatrix’s mission is to provide a comparison platform driven by visitor demand and IT community collaboration. All evaluations are based on in-depth technical analysis, and all comparisons are managed by independent community experts and consistently validated through open community curation. The third-party evaluation conducted for the SDS/HCI Landscape report featured 12 product offerings in the SDS/HCI market from vendors including Cisco, DataCore, Datrium, Dell/EMC, HPE, Microsoft, Nutanix, Pivot3 and VMware.
“DataCore has long held a spot in our SDS/HCI leaderboard,” said Herman Rutten, category consultant at WhatMatrix. “We have named DataCore a leader in the SDS/HCI Landscape Report 2018 as the result of a comparison of 115 rated criteria. Its product can be regarded as pure SDS and has a well-rounded set of features supporting a variety of use cases.”
