"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The solution has no limitations because it does backup for Linux and Windows."
"Arcserve has a feature called virtual standby (VSB), which has been very helpful because I already have a hot standby copy of my critical infrastructure. If something breaks, I can spin up that virtual standby copy in less than five minutes and ensure that my data is available to everyone and that business continuity is maintained."
"The most valuable feature of StorageCraft ShadowProtect is the speed and the compression of the backups. The compressed backed-up files do not take up as much storage. Additionally, the incremental backups can be done in one minute and be backed up on a disc very fast."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature."

"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."
