"Cohesity DataProtect is user-friendly and straightforward. The setup process was effortless, and both the backup and restore operations are speedy."
"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."
"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."
"Cohesity's web-scale architecture enables us to scale up as needed."
"I like the performance of the restore feature."
"The error handling could be improved."

"Microsoft Exchange online mailbox backups would be fantastic."
"Since it is an evolving product, there are lot of frequent releases which require upgrades to be done every other weekend."
"The one area where we would like to see additional improvements is with reporting. There are very granular reports from each grid. There are also some built-in reports within Helios (SAS Management Console) that offers basic reporting. However, for complex, large-enterprise environments, a more robust reporting engine that supports detailed audit reporting and enhanced ad hoc reports would be welcome."
"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."
"Features I would like to see include a more visible data lifecycle monitoring tab, and an easier to read backup status dashboard."
"We have to do a lot of POC to show why ExaGrid is good."
