Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication."
"The product's deployment process was straightforward."
"Arcserve has a feature called virtual standby (VSB), which has been very helpful because I already have a hot standby copy of my critical infrastructure. If something breaks, I can spin up that virtual standby copy in less than five minutes and ensure that my data is available to everyone and that business continuity is maintained."
"I like the tool's speed."
"Instant recovery is the most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP."
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"Scalability is very good."
"One feature that works well for us is that the Cloud Manager is a completely agentless solution. There's a similar dashboard on both the versions for on-premises and the cloud, and with reference to the Cloud Manager, it's a little faster because there's nothing to be installed as such. Being agentless, it doesn't require any agent to be deployed on the targets where the backups are triggered."
"NetApp Cloud Backup performance is good and they have beneficial technology."
"The technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The initial setup was complex."
"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."
"We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."
"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"One area that can be improved is around how we define the different KPIs. In particular, the business KPIs. I have my own in-house application for the business KPIs, so for example, with our policies around retention, which is a period of seven years, I have to read these parameters from other applications and I need them to integrate well."
"NetApp Cloud Backup could improve by being easier to use. Veeam solution is easier to use."
"Integration and reporting could be improved."
