Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The most valuables feature is the alerts and monitoring that catches the failed backups."
"The most valuable aspect is the added protection of having a cloud-based backup service. It provides redundancy in case of data loss."
"I know I won't have an issue if the data is there. The reliability and the confidence that we have is amazing. It doesn't matter. We've had customers have ransomware. We've had customers that have had corruption. We've had customers that have had employees destroy their data. As long as it's been backed up, I know that I can get it back and I know I have nothing to worry about. Our confidence level is very high."
"The ease of use and the console are great."
"The product is simple to use and manage. The customers have access to verify the backups."
"What I like the most about it's the ease of use and the reliability that it has when copying information to the cloud."
"The ability to back up, restore, and do different types of testing for the preventative maintenance has really increased our importance to these clients because they see the value in how fast we can get them back up and running. We're saving them money in that way."
"The solution has reduced backup times by an immeasurable amount. Its backups are incremental, so you are only backing up data changes based on the last 24 hours or so. If you are also maintaining the stored images, the restores are also only incremental, happening in minutes. Whereas, with a lot of the other solutions that we have looked at, each time it goes to refresh the restore, then it has to build a completely new image. That takes forever. This solution also improves recovery time."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"I have some issues with the agent failing on workstations. I've had to completely uninstall several of them, delete everything, and start over to get them to work."
"This solution is not very good for image restores, mainly just files. The solution also does not allow you to enable or disable backups. Sometimes, our users will connect via mobile device and it will use their data to perform the backup. If they were able to enable and disable the backup, they would not have this issue."
"For the MSP side, they could have more of a "security user" that can go in and only see certain clients. If you give somebody access as a technician, they can see all the clients."
"We would like to have better reporting."
"One area I don't like has to do with the agent that goes on the system... if a system stays offline for some length of time, say for a week or so, I may have to go back in and reinstall the agent to get it back in business. I don't know what's causing that."
"N-able Cove Data Protection for Microsoft 365 is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
"For small amounts of data, recovery is easy, but when it's large amounts of data, it takes forever. So, if they can have a service where they put our data on a hard drive and ship it to us as fast as possible, it would be great. Even if there's a fee associated with it, it's fine."
"A better default view on my dashboard would be great. There is a lot of useless information there that it pulls up. They could present the dashboard slightly better, in terms of the extra information after the first five columns. The first five columns are awesome. After that, I don't care about the rest, and there are another seven things after that."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
