Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"The most valuable features are the data center recovery administration and the time of recovery.""The workload can be moved directly if the disaster site is the main site.""The installation is straightforward if the version you have is compatible with your infrastructure.""The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data.""One of the standout features of Dell RecoverPoint for Virtual Machines is its real-time data protection capability.""Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature. Its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable.""The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes.""It is a point-in-time restore, which is quite handy."

"Once you set it up and you tell it exactly what needs to be backed up, you literally forget about it. It sends you emails and notifications of the current status of the jobs.""The most valuable features of Druva Phoenix are the simple portal to log in and flexibility.""Druva Phoenix is easy to use and easy to start with.""I would definitively say that we have been able to make our people more productive by at least 30%.""I found the cost-effectiveness of Druva Phoenix to be its most valuable feature, especially when compared to on-premises backup solutions."

Cons
"The solution could improve by being more easier to use. However, once you have used it for a while it becomes easier. Additionally, there could be better support and compatibility with management by having a command-line interface. This would be beneficial for the customers.""It should have features for recovering a group of virtual machines and full-scale security. For recovering all the VMs at once, they don't have a GUI option, and we have to use the command line.""I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment.""The configuration process seems a bit challenging, and the installation takes a bit longer than expected.""In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data.""It would be good to have a critical application on the customer side.""I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release.""The solution is not easy to use. It's actually quite hard. If it could be simplified it might be better for the end user."

"Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern.""They were able to give us a very reasonable price considering we were non-for-profit organizations, however, there is always room for improvement on that cost.""Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently.""There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
  • "This is an expensive product."
  • "Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
  • "There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
  • "It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."

  • "We’ve had experience with the data center for a while and we have had solutions that were able to support older versions of the operating systems that we needed. I would like for Druva to support it as well."
  • "Druva Phoenix's pricing is based on the service provided, and it's reasonable. The cost of the service will depend on the size of your data and the number of virtual machines being backed up. However, the pricing structure is straightforward and easy to understand."
  • "I assume clients use Druva Phoenix because it is cheaper than other products."
