Bocada Provides Customers Hands-On Prism Experience via Live Test Drive
KIRKLAND, Wash., Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Bocada Inc, the world's leading provider of data protection management software and the creator of the Data Protection Service Management (DPSM) model, today announced a publicly accessible test drive for customer prospects to try out their award winning Prism DPSM solution. The hands-on experience in a live demonstration environment allows users to become familiar with Prism's in-depth backup reporting and troubleshooting, advanced capacity analysis and intuitive SLA management functionality.

Unlike canned demonstrations that show how a product works but are unable to let customers interact with it, the Bocada Prism Test Drive gives users the ability to use Prism and all of its reporting features on comprehensive test data from multiple backup applications. This allows the various reports to be fully utilized in order for the customer to gain a solid understanding of the benefits and ease of use of Bocada Prism while alleviating the burden of having to set up their own test environments.
"Often, customers are delayed in the decision process because they cannot get access to the necessary resources needed to do an in-house proof of concept or they are too time constrained to bring in the product for a full proof of concept," said Ralph Wynn, Product Marketing Manager. "The test drive makes the initial evaluation much easier and quicker for potential customers and lets them see that Prism is much more than just a basic backup reporting tool. Our goal is to provide the customer with a way of letting them use Prism themselves to test out the core functionality so they can immediately see the value of bringing the solution in house."
When customers typically do evaluations, they only have a small test environment or a few test servers available to them, so they may not be able to test all features of the products they are evaluating. In addition, small test environments may shield the customer from potential scale or administrative issues that may become evident in a production environment. The Bocada Test Drive is run on a full-scale database with input from a wide array of backup applications, which will give the customer a true taste of functionality in a production environment.
Bocada Prism is a workflow-driven, intelligent data protection service management solution with in-depth backup troubleshooting and trend analysis, built-in SLA impact alerting, policy management and change tracking, and a searchable knowledge base to ensure organizations can meet business goals and improve operational efficiencies.
