Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that Cohesity offers the chance to have data on-premises and on the cloud. All the data is automatically sent to the cloud."
"Its most valuable feature is its ransomware protection, so it has immutable backups."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"We are very satisfied with the product as a whole—all the backup functions, the data protection functions. We are very satisfied with those, and the product is very simple to use."
"Backups are quick and painless to set up."
"The most valuable aspect for me is that I don't have to deal with media in terms of tapes like our existing system does."
"It's stable."
"It is also very easy to determine which VMs are being backed up and which ones aren't. This is helpful to make sure nothing is being missed."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"Cohesity cluster upgrades have not been as easy as a single button click. They are a manual process that requires upgrading each node into a cluster individually."
"Their UI requires a manual refresh. It doesn't seem like it updates itself sometimes when you're moving from screens or waiting for a change to take effect, so you have to manually refresh."
"The support is pretty bad."
"It would be great to add SQL Object Level restore, so user objects, tables, etc. can be restored without having to restore the entire DB."
"The support team could do a better job. Sometimes finding the correct person is cumbersome and time consuming."
"Microsoft Exchange online mailbox backups would be fantastic."
"The error handling could be improved."
"At times, you may click the wrong server or click too fast and accidentally restore a cluster of servers. It would be very helpful to have a cancel option under restores."
"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."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
