Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The MARS agent makes it easy to use."
"The deployment process is quite easy in Azure."
"I have no issues with the stability at all. So I don't necessarily care about the stability of the product. I look more at whether or not can I recover. And I haven't had a failed recovery yet. I've got no failed recoveries of all my years."
"The fact that Azure Backup is integrated is one of its biggest advantages."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Backup is its ease of use and good integration with other Azure services."
"The backup features are very useful."
"It's very simple to configure which is very useful. It's not complex to configure it."
"The hardware is always updated and it's saved us a lot of money."
"The performance is good and the interface is user-friendly."
"The superior support from Barracuda in setting up, using, and helping with issues for the product."
"Of all the backup products we have used, this by far is the simplest to install and use."
"I have found the product's LiveBoot feature to be most valuable."
"It is very stable, and I'm very happy with this solution."
"They are the best support that we have had so far. When you contact or email them, they are very quick to respond. They always have someone available for us. That's what we want as a customer, we want someone to listen to us."
"Easy, immediate protection for data that is virtually infinitely scalable."
"It is very reliable, so we don't have any issues with it. Our customers have never raised any issue with it. Basically, once you set it up and it is running, it is trouble-free. Our customers are happy. They just got a renewal for the subscription for the service."
"I would like to see more automation, integration, and security. The price could be better."
"Azure Backup's licensing model is very challenging because it doesn't give a clear picture."
"It doesn't have the option to have a backup from the database. It has backup for the files, folders, and backup only the whole virtual machine. But if I need to do a backup from the Oracle database, from an Exchange server or from SharePoint, this ability isn't there. There is no application backup."
"They need to improve the frequency of the backup. You can only backup one to three times a day. It would be better to back up continuously throughout the day."
"The solution is still in its infancy; it's not a mature product yet."
"The support for Office365 backup is atrocious and is something that has to be improved."
"I would like to have the option to increase the frequency of the backups. Azure Backup does backups on an hourly basis, but I would prefer it to take backups more often."
"The user interface is a little bit confusing and it could be better."
"The backup feature could be a bit simpler to utilize. They should make the process of backing up individual files simpler."
"The restore time can be improved. The restore time for large quantities of folders is slow. Sometimes, if I'm doing a full recovery of a server, it takes multiple hours, which probably is natural. It might also be because of our internet speed to the cloud."
"I would like to see the automatic backup of critical applications to the cloud."
"It would be nice to have some reports generated on the usage, but it is not essential."
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint."
"When we manage the box physically, we don't have as much control as we do when we manage from the cloud. The best management is from the cloud."
"I would like to see the Live Boot feature extended to Hyper-V machines, in addition to VMware machines."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
