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 recovery part of the product is very good."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"It is easy to configure."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"Global deduplication is the best feature of this solution."
"This product is extremely user-friendly and it is capable of performing large-scale archive/backup (five+ years worth). It is easy to store, maintain, and check backups."
"Instant recovery is the most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The product license and support delivery have been great!"
"The back-up and restore functions work great and it's easy to use."
"Nakivo has been instrumental in strengthening our data security infrastructure."
"The features that we like the most are the Backup Copy and Active Directory Integration. They have helped us to save a lot of time since we do not have to make the backup copies “by hand”."
"The interface is basic and very easy to use which is what we are looking for."
"NAKIVO is easy to use and pretty easy to set up."
"Nakivo offers direct support through the graphical interface and this is great to have if you need quick help."
"The VM Backup Verification is one of the features I appreciate the most."
"Its interface can be improved. I find it unintuitive."
"We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"One of the biggest drawbacks of Arcserve UDP is that it does not have a single console, making it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."
"The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"From our experience, the main factor that could be improved is adding more cloud services that are supported as a backup repository."
"I had to manually install SNMP, which wasn't hard, but a step I had to take, to plug this into the monitoring system."
"Updating VM tools on a replicated VM could be better."
"So far, there is no version that supports Polish. If such a version existed, many customers in our region would decide to purchase and implement this solution."
"Using an independent bootable media to restore full physical machines would enable physical machines that may be serving as Nakivo Director or Transport machines to be reliably restored to service without undue delay, ensuring that an enterprise's local environment remains intact."
"Updating VM Tools on a replicated VM could be better."
"The interface might be improved, but the interface of every product might be improved."
"In the press releases, it would be useful to make sure that the manual space reclaim procedure does not have to be performed but that it happens automatically, thus optimizing the use of space."
