"Instant recovery is the most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."
"We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature."
"It is easy to schedule backups."
"It's stable."
"Enables immediate recovery and immediate restoration."
"The solution helped us use R2 RBO to back up frequently."
"The most valuable features of Azure Backup for us are its flexible retention options and the ability to recover to a second region with geo-replication and read access."
"One of the most valuable features is security and connectivity to the data."
"The scalability has been good."
"It's very simple to configure which is very useful. It's not complex to configure it."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"Every time I change the disc, I have to do a full backup."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS."
"We would like to see some kind of notification given to the user that a file was not synchronized well or what may have happened."
"Technical support is in need of improvement."
"I once tried restoring a Linux environment, and the size of the Linux VM or the data disk was really huge. It took a really long time to restore the environment and send the data from the storage to the disk. It took around 25 to 30 minutes, which was much longer than I anticipated. They can improve the duration of such restore operations. In the next release, it would also be good if they could reduce the duration for transferring the data from their storage to the actual storage while creating a virtual machine. They can reduce the duration or increase the data transfer rate."
"I would like to see better pricing."
"Lacks an AI system that would enable easier upgrading of the hardware."
"The integration with the record database and integration with other applications will be good, especially with the database piece."
"The support for Office365 backup is atrocious and is something that has to be improved."
"Azure lacks sufficient solutions for a particular scenario, we may need to resort to using third-party applications. In such cases, these applications can be employed to facilitate backup, replication, and the efficient utilization of internet connectivity and bandwidth. They enable us to effectively manage and transfer data while ensuring optimal utilization of network resources. However, it would be a benefit if we did not have to use third-party applications for these operations."
