We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I find the BMR/image and the recovery pieces are valuable.""The Granular Restore of SQL feature has been a lifesaver more times than I can count. One of the main reasons for looking at Carbonite was their support for platforms like AIX and AS/400 Series.""It seems reliable and easy to use.""The solution is a free engine to help work with the container.""The solution is very stable.""Technical support handled all our issues quickly and effectively.""It does not slow down your computer or use a lot of resources as it works.""The efficiency and convenience are excellent."

"Its big data and archive data features are the features that I have found most valuable. I can use it in a big virtual environment.""It's very regimented and fast. It does local backup, cloud backup, long-term coverage, and disaster recovery."

Cons
"The Hyper-V backup has room for improvement.""In the next release I would like to see an improvement in the auto failover option.""The stability has room for improvement.""It could be a little bit easier or faster to be able to access data files without having to download anything.""The only thing that I would like to see improved is related to marketing. Currently, it is very difficult to find the right paper and stuff for me. Their marketing department should provide better information because currently, it is very difficult to find information on the internet. It was bought over by OpenText, and you won't be able to find a lot of information about this solution on their site. They should also provide training facilities for commercial purposes. Some of my colleagues recently went for pilot training, and they were technical. If I want to get trained, the training has to be more commercial. Currently, there is no such training for users like me.""The support for object storage isn't quite there yet. Its public cloud support can be improved. I would love to see the public cloud support for object storage, and it would be great, but what I always hear from the folks at Carbonite is that in a lot of cases, it directly competes with their cloud offering. So, I don't know when or where that will go or if that will go anywhere, but we are hopeful to see something. The dashboard is a little outdated. If they gave it a facelift and put some better design around their dashboard, that would be tremendous. I generally care less about the visual aesthetics of an application as long as it does what it needed to do, which is true in the case of this solution. We also have the Microsoft 365 platform. Because they're two separate platforms, I have to log in to my Microsoft platform to manage it, and I have to log into my Carbonite server backup platform to manage it. Having these two coexist together in one management console is really what we're looking for, but we went for it knowing this. We also knew that there would be some integration coming down the road. So, we're again hoping to see some of that coming in 2021.""They do not yet have USB recovery but they are adding it in coming releases."

"The limitation that I see in Cohesity is that the minimum sized node is 36 terabytes, which is more than a small customer needs.""The initial setup can be complex, depending on the environment."
