	From Customers...
	“Retrieving data is much faster in that it eliminates finding the right tape from the backup location, mounting it and then getting it back offsite. SPHiNX cuts our restore me in half.”
~ Jason O’Dell, AVP, IT Manager, GreenBank
	"The ReadVerify Appliance from Crossroads provides us with reliable information about the status of our backup system and thus helps us to maintain our backup system at a consistently high level."
~ Markus Moll — Team leader in the Technology and Production Group in the IT Department of the Kanton of Argau
	"I rely heavily on RVA for its ability to monitor system performance, as well as identify my capacities. RVA makes it very easy to project how I can distribute the load and grow my library — with the tools to manage and operate the system effectively."
~ Tab Butler — Director of Media Management at MLB Network
	"TapeSentry® was chosen because of cost and convenience. Client-side tape encryption was hitting some of the servers too much, and I didn't care for that. I wanted something in-line that wasn't going to impact the speed of my backups — TapeSentry does what I need."
~ Michael Welch — Network Specialist for ACS
	"After the implementation of HP Virtual TapeServer, we were able to retire 4 of our 6 tape drives. Our full backup went from 5 hours to 2 hours, and our full restore dropped from 7 hours to 1 hour. It's a very good technology that pays off!"
~ Jalil Falsafi — Future Electronics, Inc.
	"ShareLoader® decreased our backup window significantly. We backup half a terabyte of data a week. The full backup was taking from 26 to 28 hours, and it's down to 11 hours. The incrementals were taking about three hours each and now, they take just over an hour."
~Joe Ferrer — The Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission
	"Crossroads ReadVerify Appliance has provided statistical data on the health of our tape storage infrastructure and allowed us to achieve significant improvement in the performance and utilization of our backup and archival resources. We can now evaluate and optimize all of our tape storage operations, resulting in substantial performance improvements. "
~Rico Magsipoc — Laboratory of Neuro Imaging Chief Technology Officer, UCLA
	"Crossroads ReadVerify Appliance has given us an important new tool to help ensure that the vast amounts of irreplaceable scientific data maintained at San Diego Supercomputer Center can be reliably archived and restored. RVA also gives us insight into ways we can improve the performance and utilization of our data management infrastructure and plan for future growth."
~Bryan Banister — San Diego Supercomputer Center, SDSC
	"Farm Credit chose Crossroads' ReadVerify Appliance (RVA) because we need accurate performance metrics for our backups after migrating to an ISCSI storage area network and a Fibre-Channel (FC) based tape library. Our new environment is considerably more expensive, and we plan to use RVA to justify our purchases and make sure we get the best performance out of the new system."
~Budd Trippet, Senior Network Administrator, Farm Credit Bank of Texas
	"The best technology is the one the customer does not even notice"
~Michael Futterer, Head of IT at WISAG
	"HP Virtual TapeServer has fundamentally improved data protection operations at Kettering Health Network by introducing virtual tape into our data backup and restore systems. Installation and configuration of the appliance took less than one day and now data management processes run faster, more reliably and with less human intervention, dramatically improving system reliability and reducing operational costs."
~Dan Townsend — Kettering Health Network
