Market share is a strange thing to celebrate. Customers care whether you can get them back to business when something goes wrong. Partners care whether you make them look credible to their clients. Everything else is just a scoreboard.
So when IDC‘s 2H 2025 Semiannual Software Tracker confirmed Veeam at #1 globally in data protection software, extending our lead as the only company in the top five to cross a billion dollars in a single half, what we read into it is not a ranking. It is a verdict.
We are happy to celebrate our continued leadership and our accelerating #1 market share in data resilience and data protection in the IDC Worldwide Semiannual Software Tracker Data Protection Software for the second half of 2025.
We’ve been singularly obsessed with precision recovery: When ransomware hits, when a model drifts, when an agent goes rogue, or when a region goes dark. In fact, Veeam is gaining more market share than any of our peers in IDC’s top 5.
The digital landscape doesn’t just evolve, it explodes. And agentic AI just accelerates that pace. The ground is shifting. With AI, the perimeter is gone; policy and identity now travel with the data itself. AI moves faster than the data feeding it, which may not be secure or trustworthy.
Customers need a unified platform across data security, governance, and resilience. And because we already protect more of the world’s data than anyone else, we’re not just part of what comes next; we’re helping define it.
Veeam continues to relentlessly drive rapid innovation in data resilience through:
- Veeam Data Platform: Not just a solution, but a revolution in data resilience and data security that offers hybrid cloud capabilities and AI-driven defenses that anticipate and neutralize threats before they strike.
- Veeam Data Cloud: Where confidence meets convenience. This platform merges the robustness of our top-tier technology with the flexibility of cloud services and is enhanced by our strategic alliance with Microsoft.
- Veeam Cyber Secure Program: This isn’t just support; it’s your cybersecurity SWAT team. Equipped to fortify, defend, and recover, the Veeam Cyber Secure program ensures you’re prepared for any cyber assault.
- Commitment to excellence: Our data resilience capabilities are fortified by partnerships with cybersecurity leaders and prestigious certifications like the DoDIN APL and the International Common Criteria Certification for Cyber Resilience.
- Securiti AI (now a Veeam company): Powering data security posture management, AI governance, and the trusted data foundation that safe AI requires.
To every customer who trusts us to safeguard their digital assets: thank you. Your challenges fuel our commitment, and your feedback sharpens our edge. Together, we’re not just defending ground, we’re reclaiming it.
To our partners: your alliance amplifies our strength. Nearly 34,000 strong, your dedication propels our shared mission to keep businesses resilient and responsive.
To our users: your engagement and advocacy expand our horizons. Your insights and experiences are invaluable and help us refine and enhance our solutions daily.
The IDC tracker confirms our leadership, but the real victory is in the data resilience we deliver every day. As the digital threatscape expands, so does our resolve to not just respond, but anticipate and adapt to whatever comes our way.
Our promise as the Data + AI Trust Company? Continuous innovation, relentless improvement, unwavering support, and a unified platform, strengthened by Securiti AI, that makes safe AI possible.
Thank you for being part of this journey. The path ahead is challenging, but together we are unstoppable in our goal for complete data resilience.
#1 in data resilience is what we earned. The Data + AI Trust Company is what we are building.
Thank you again.
