Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."First of all, you can schedule a backup for the client. You can schedule it as you like. You can also control the bandwidth, so the backup will not utilize. The internet will depend on the bandwidth."
"The most valuable feature of Azure Backup is its ease of use and good integration with other Azure services."
"It is a stable solution...The product is worth the money you pay for it."
"Enables immediate recovery and immediate restoration."
"You have the flexibility to encrypt your backups and choose the storage capacity you're comfortable paying for."
"The backup features are very useful."
"All of the core features are valuable to us."
"One of the most valuable features is security and connectivity to the data."
"They have great support."
"When we talk about a backup point of view, from a backup perspective, it's a good one."
"It is fairly stable."
"What I found most valuable in Unitrends is its simple user interface. It also works reliably."
"It's not easy to scale it."
"I really like the reporting options you get for various email reports."
"The ability to diversify jobs within the same server helps break down a large chunk of data into more manageable and concentrated chunks."
"Unitrends has helped us cut down the time that it takes to restore a server to its original configuration."
"The length of time it takes to restore is our main source of frustration. It would be beneficial to shorten the time it takes."
"In the next release, I would like to see the ability to back up to different cloud providers."
"I believe more options could be available to understand better what's happening in the system. Additionally, automating the client updates and connector updates would be beneficial. Updating the connector from time to time can be challenging, and it could be made more transparent and straightforward for users. Moreover, another drawback lies in the time it takes to test full data backup recovery. Deploying a full recovery takes longer. We need to allocate a longer period for complete data recovery to establish the environment again."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"The only thing I would say that could be improved is the reporting."
"The user interface is a little bit confusing and it could be better."
"Azure Backup must include features similar to enterprise solutions."
"We would like to see some kind of notification given to the user that a file was not synchronized well or what may have happened."
"Support is great for small simple issues, but anything more difficult, it is hard to get good resolutions without having to badger them and their management."
"No appliance update notifications."
"Network-based storage stability could be improved."
"In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses."
"There's a lot that can be made better. For example, it could be more scalable."
"It would be great to have the job throttle/limit the max number of backups on a single ESXi host."
"I would like to see more storage options for the free version."
"If the interface could be less complex, it is would be great."
