Find out in this report how the two Disaster Recovery (DR) Software solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution can be improved by including a load balancer."
"Patch management, backup, and disaster recovery have been the solution's most valuable features for our data protection strategy."
"The most valuable features of the product for me are its backup and recovery functionalities."
"Performance-wise, it works efficiently for backup and recovery compared to other tools."
"One key feature is it encrypts your data at rest which is really good."
"Acronis Disaster Recovery has good scalability."
"Our customers use Acronis Disaster Recovery for data backup."
"The backup and recovery options work flawlessly."
"The most important features are the backup and the availability of the Universal Explorer. The in-transit compression is great."
"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."
"Quick backup and restore; very simple and understandable interface."
"It helps me with restores. I can repeat a test multiple times: Do the test, the restore, and then test again. It saves me time because I don't have to rebuild the VMs every time."
"The ability to map a drive and restore a separate file is most valuable. The restoration activity is good."
"I get my backups done."
"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."
"The most important feature, in terms of the hypervisor, is the ability to restore a virtual machine in a matter of minutes. We can take the backup of a virtual machine and we can restore it to the actual Vembu Backup server as a temporary solution, in a matter of minutes. We can just spin up a VM in no time; different hardware, even different processors. It's pretty dynamic in that sense."
"The product should improve compute points."
"I wish the Disaster Recovery system could do more, like integrating irregularity features and combining VLP functionalities."
"The cost is acceptable."
"The solution covers specific versions of Windows and Linux, and it would be good if other Linux versions or some special appliances could work in the Acronis Disaster Recovery environment."
"Acronis Disaster Recovery should provide software information wherein I can change my setup to collect more information."
"The documentation can be improved, this would have helped."
"They could provide pricing models considering the requirements of various countries and organizations."
"In the future, I would like to see cross-platform support."
"The support is a bit slow in resolving an issue. It takes a long time to recover."
"In the beginning, when we had some hiccups, I would chalk that up more to a learning curve for the product."
"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."
"There's a feature that does syncing with AWS Cloud backup online. It's not that straightforward to get it set up."
"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."
"It would be good to have a volume licensing discount. We're a managed IT service provider, so we're backing up not just our own systems but all our clients'. In that regard, as we grow, we're putting business through Vembu. There is not any specific partner incentive at all. So that would be nice to see."
"There are some limitation in Vembu that can be improved. When you take the backup from any server, the full incremental backup is limited. For example, if you run a weekly full backup and monthly backup, they cannot be run at the same time. I should not have to create a new job, but in this scenario, I am creating two jobs. The limitation is created because if I select monthly backup, then I cannot select weekly backup."
"The initial setup process can be more simplistic and quicker."
