Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""I found the cost-effectiveness of Druva Phoenix to be its most valuable feature, especially when compared to on-premises backup solutions.""I would definitively say that we have been able to make our people more productive by at least 30%.""Druva Phoenix is easy to use and easy to start with.""The most valuable features of Druva Phoenix are the simple portal to log in and flexibility."

"I like the incremental backups and their failover.""The user interface is good.""The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup.""It's simple to use.""The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days.""The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complicated. It takes around half an hour to implement, but it depends on the performance of the server that you are installing the backup software on.""The ease of use for the graphical interface and the ease of installation are the most valuable features of this solution.""What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."

Cons
"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.""There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix.""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.""Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently."

"More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution.""There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible.""It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network.""It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though.""In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions. We don't just work with Microsoft or Linux, but other kinds of infrastructure data as well.""It could use deduplication features.""The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable.""In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."
