"Druva inSync is very easy to use.""The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete.""We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that.""One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall.

Cons
"Google has stopped supporting the on-premise version of the tool.""The initial setup is complex.""While the product does support various databases, the company needs to make more of an effort to support N-minus-one compatibility.""Areas that need improvement would be the support for recovery in the physical environment.""The solution doesn't support AIX software or in-cloud, and we have a lot of servers running on AIX and Oracle.""Lacks the option to price backup costs within the solution itself."

More Actifio Cons →

"The speed could be better.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""The product needs to improve its support.""Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment.""The solution takes a lot of time during restoration.""The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
