Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."I like the tool's speed."
"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."
"The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup."
"The standard backup and restore feature is most used."
"The most valuable features are that it is able to restore quickly and that it is able to virtually restore on Hyper-V."
"The data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too."
"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"The restoration and infrastructure is extremely reliable."
"The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports."
"In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The solution can use a lot of bandwidth when the scheduling is not done, it should auto-schedule itself. For example, if there are 50 users connected in the network at 12 o'clock and the backup is not scheduled. At this time the network offices are going to have performance issues when it is doing a backup. Having a feature to auto-schedule a time when the network is not being used often would be beneficial."
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast."
"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."
