"Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."
"The initial setup is really straightforward."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward, it's not complex."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"No longer does it take several hours to backup a VM or troubleshoot a backup issue."
"The dashboard is very rich and provides details needed for a moderator."
"I love the ability to clone a virtual server in only minutes."
"With instant DR failover using SiteContinuity, we are able to keep our files available no matter the situation."
"Cohesity DataProtect is user-friendly and straightforward. The setup process was effortless, and both the backup and restore operations are speedy."
"One of the most valuable features is the restore functionality that they offer."
"The dashboard is very easy to use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"The support is pretty bad."
"I like that Cohesity offers the chance to have data on-premises and on the cloud. All the data is automatically sent to the cloud."
"This solution is only compatible with a limited number of storage arrays, including Pure and Cisco Hyperflex."
"The one area where we would like to see additional improvements is with reporting. There are very granular reports from each grid. There are also some built-in reports within Helios (SAS Management Console) that offers basic reporting. However, for complex, large-enterprise environments, a more robust reporting engine that supports detailed audit reporting and enhanced ad hoc reports would be welcome."
"In terms of what could be improved, it just needs some maturity."
"I would like to see the management of multiple nodes inside a tenant. If you want to manage a Cohesity environment, you either go on a per-node base, and you can hop from one node to the other, or you need to implement their SaaS capability but it always needs an internet connection. We would really like to have some kind of local management entity so that we can see all the Cohesity nodes in a customer environment and manage those nodes centrally. That's something that we would really like, and they are really working on it."
"The solution's dashboard or UI can be enhanced and made more user-friendly than its competitors."
"Reporting is one area that isn't as robust as it could be."
