Insight and Analysis: IDC said, “The success of Arcserve offerings in the midmarket (in particular, over the past several years) has been primarily driven by the ability to stay laser focused on delivering a simple solution to complex problems. As Arcserve, there will be fewer distractions at the corporate level, and maintaining this level of focus should be a bit easier. Arcserve will now have all its wood behind one arrow, so to speak, and the company is continuing to aim that arrow at the midmarket.”
