We performed a comparison between BDRSuite, N2WS Backup & Recovery, and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."Their technical support is very good to work with, as they are able to propose alternate solutions to problems that work well for us."
"The Vembu BDR product is very intuitive and easy to use."
"The main benefit is that it's inexpensive. We get a lot for a little bit of money. I'm very happy with the savings and with the features. It allows me to do everything I need."
"I get my backups done."
"We invest in the backup so the continuity of the data is not affected."
"The scalability is good. It can scale. Adding a new server to a foreign location is easy."
"I like the fact that BDRSuite can connect to VMware ESXi and automatically pull the virtual machines that I have in that environment. I also like that you can choose to back up the compute to the backup server or go straight to the cloud."
"The most valuable features for me are that I can back up the entire virtual machine, but when restoring I can restore at the file level."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The backup and recovery are the most valuable features. So, our developers can work with confidence."
"The backup and restore functionality is very easy to use and manage."
"Provides easy, one-click functionality and flexible backup policies and schedules for AWS workloads."
"The product is successful with the SMB market."
"It is a stable and scalable solution that's easy to operate and restore."
"It's scalable."
"With regard to our operational requirements, Veeam is very good because it's so user-friendly."
"It's relatively easy to use and the ability to recover in a short period of time has been great."
"Veeam is quick, easy to work with, and its support for Microsoft products is good. They also provide adequate solutions for backing up Microsoft applications in the cloud, such as Office 365."
"Its ease of use for restore is really good. For Exchange, the Exchange Active Directory is great."
"The WAN accelerator feature has been the most valuable for me. That feature reduced the time needed to complete the task from 25 days to less than a week! This is compared with the original tools used: ntbackup, robocopy and Windows Server Backup."
"The most valuable features I have found to be Instant Recovery, quick restore and rollback, and asynchronous copy. It is a complete solution for our needs."
"We have not been able to move our backups from one drive to another one. We can only create a storage pool. However, if we want to change a drive, it is not possible to delete one drive as long there is data on it. For this, we have to call the support. While they can solve this, it is not out-of-the-box."
"I have seen that the BDRSuite user interface can be less intuitive and more challenging to navigate compared to other similar products."
"I saw that it's not possible to have the last full backup duplicated on our site. Therefore, if I have a lot of information on the main site, I would not want to copy any information to those site servers. It would be nice to be able to make a copy of the last full backup."
"They need to improve their marketing because not many people are aware of it. People ask me what is Vembu, and I have to explain to them it is a good tool for backup and other things."
"The only place where I would really want to see improvement, out the gate, is more granular scheduling... If I want to do an offset or to only do two backups on Friday and Saturday - versus whole hourly incrementals during the week - I don't have that granularity right now."
"One thing that I reported with the backups: When there are accentuated characters in a path, then we can't restore documents into a folder. There is a bug with the restoration and restoring files with accentuated characters in the path. Hopefully, they have repaired this because otherwise we will restore files and find out that they are not there."
"Maybe they can add some features regarding working with the vCenter cluster to be able to have more power over the cluster overall, not just over a single or specific host. Also, I would like some enhancements in technology for the web interface, e.g., some interactive technologies to advance the interface of Vembu. Although the current interface is very good, maybe they can use more advanced technologies for its web development."
"Scheduling backups is challenging due to the poor quality of the UI."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
"Some support replies for a broken backup task have been "rebuild the job from scratch" and this is a bad thing to do if you have many VMs and repositories."
"think backing up from physical servers and ransomware security needs some improvements."
"The price can be a bit expensive."
"The remote SQL server has had multiple sizing issues within the logs and SQL backup space and sharing with other database apps."
"In Linux, I suggest you backup for a PostgreSQL database."
"The automation could be better."
"The implementation was straightforward. However, we used an integrator, the process could be easier for us to do it ourselves."
"The price can be better."
