"The recovery part of the product is very good."
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys."
"It is easy to configure."
"The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"The restoration and infrastructure is extremely reliable."
"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."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue."
"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 only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."
