Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The speed and the ease of the initial setup are both good. It is not complex.""One of the features I find most valuable, is the good technical support."

More Dell ProtectPoint [EOL] Pros →

"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate.""The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete.""Druva inSync is very easy to use.""It has a straightforward installation.""All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth.""Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup.""We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that.""You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."

Cons
"The interface and documentation need to improve.""The product has to be more mature, like to be another six to eight months on the market. A lot of maturity needs to be incorporated."

More Dell ProtectPoint [EOL] Cons →

"I would like to see security improved in the next release.""Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment.""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.""The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running.""This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud.""It would be good if bare metal backups were possible.""The one area that needs to improve is the pricing.""The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."

    Top Answer:We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that.
    Top Answer:The pricing is good. The pricing changed since Commvault Metallic came out. They pitched unlimited backup, and that's the main reason Druva changed their prices. Also, Druva told us to merge our… more »
