Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."
"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is a fairly stable solution."
"It makes our administrators' lives much easier to combine backup, archiving, and services like hosting file shares in one central system with only one user interface."
"It works well with backup virtual machines and SQL services we have been using."
"We like that we can use production data to run intensive reports that would otherwise bog down the production server."
"We are happy with the support provided by Cohesity for the issues we've come across."
"The SQL Backup and Restore is very easy."
"The dashboard is very rich and provides details needed for a moderator."
"Cohesity DataProtect is a reliable solution for performing backups within a suitable timeframe, and its forever incremental model is particularly effective for the customer's needs. Additionally, the solution handles instant recovery and file-level recovery from a VMware image backup seamlessly."
"We can run test scripts on production data."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved."
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"They could always keep up with continuous interface refinements."
"The product is still young and is continually improving. There have been a couple of buggy releases in the software that have caused us minor issues, so possibly some better QA before releasing would prove to be useful. We have also been inquiring about new app and functionality via the Marketplace that was teased months back but has yet to come to fruition."
"This solution is only compatible with a limited number of storage arrays, including Pure and Cisco Hyperflex."
"Reporting is one area that isn't as robust as it could be."
"The solution's dashboard or UI can be enhanced and made more user-friendly than its competitors."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"Cohesity DataProtect takes hours to restore a single file, even a small one."
"We would like it to have more capabilities for different kinds of PaaS or SaaS services in the Azure cloud, such as Azure SQL or Azure Cosmos DB."
