Find out in this report how the two SaaS Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"It's incredibly fast."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The solution is really very stable. One good thing about it, compared to other products, is that you can just run it and forget about it. Unless you come across some interruptions in the network, it works like a charm."
"Snapshot and Data Guard Manager are awesome features."
"One of the most valuable features is real-time replication. The version we're using is reliable and easy to deploy."
"The most important feature is that if I want to test the database at the disaster recovery site, I can take a snapshot, test it, and then revert it back to the original state without needing to restore the complete database from the primary data center to the disaster recovery."
"Technical support is very good. If at any time we write a ticket, we get the appropriate answer on time."
"The most valuable feature is the flashback standby, which allows us to test without scrapping the database."
"Oracle Data Guard is a free solution. When you apply for Enterprise Manager, it comes for free with the solution."
"You can see how the logs are applied, check the apply time, and how far behind the standby is at any given time."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"The speed could be better."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The implementation is complex for anyone who's jumping into it without any experience. It's all command-line driven implementations. For some, that's a turn-off."
"The predominant issue lies in the communication link between the secondary and primary databases."
"I think it would be great to have a graphical interface assistant (like DBCA, ASMCA, NETCA, etc.) for initial configuration, monitoring, configuring Oracle Data Guard Broker and all the Data Guard Broker commands, without needing Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control installed."
"For Italian medium-sized companies, the main challenge lies in the cost associated with licenses."
"It is a very useful administrative IT tool. It saves on costs."
"Sometimes, the technical support team takes time to respond."
"We would like to be able to see the date time stamp when you execute DGMGRL commands."
"The initial setup is complex."
