Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has a straightforward installation.""Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup.""If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple.""The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature.""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.""Druva inSync is very easy to use.""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."

"Replication to Forever Cloud.""Stability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten.""Backup/archive to multiple locations.""The backup feature and recovery option are good because they allow the instant recovery of Hyper-V nodes and files.""I really like the reporting options you get for various email reports.""It is fairly stable.""The most valuable feature of Unitrends for me is the automated feedback""The ability to backup both physical and virtual machines, along with having an appliance store the backups locally instead of on a file server, NAS, or SAN."

Cons
"The speed could be better.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud.""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.""I would like to see security improved in the next release.""It would be good if bare metal backups were possible.""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."

More Druva inSync Cons →

"The solution's base operating system needs to be improved.""Probably the biggest issue I've had is actually paying for the unit, and part of that problem is that they use a third party for the billing.""The solution’s support and onboarding process needs to be improved.""Network-based storage stability could be improved.""I would like to see the real-time replication process improved, and a zero RPO feature added.""There are a few quirks where the GUI, agent, and back-end are not precisely meshed.""It seems like Unitrends moved away from enterprise customer engagement and moved more towards the managed service provider market.""It could be a little more customizable."

  • "We found that the cost of Unitrends was about the same as the Dell DR6300. We liked the fact that the Unitrends appliance was all-in-one."

    Top Answer:Unitrends is an expensive solution. We've negotiated deals where they've given us the $ 62,000 to $ 64,000 appliance for free but charged $ 90,000 for three years of support.
    Top Answer:In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses—I had to hover over to find that information. Figuring out the scripting part wasn't… more »
