Find out in this report how the two SaaS Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"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."
"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."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"Our customers have come to trust IBM."
"Replication processes with container storage pools allow reduction of storage space and network bandwidth, using deduplication and compression."
"Our performance is better."
"Traditional storage works perfectly with it."
"Technical support is okay. We have not had many issues with them."
"The archiving feature is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The backup of Sybase databases is the most valuable feature in the existing environment. They have got the most documentation out there on the internet for its software protection. The documentation is excellent, and there are a lot of blogs, websites. Because it's still one of the oldest products out there for data protection, there are also lots of people who have a lot of experience in using this solution."
"It scales well. We have grown here in the last year or two, and it has been relatively easy."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"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."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"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."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The solution's ability to integrate with a cloud solution is one area that needs improvement."
"IBM Spectrum Protect is not a very user-friendly tool."
"In a future release, it would be a benefit to have the ability to add an application as a storage target, as a storage pool. Additionally, they should add more functionality to the administration for the Operation Center."
"It does not do too well in our virtual environment."
"It's difficult in terms of the configuration at set up. In our case, it required another admin, one person dedicated to the backup."
"I am looking forward to new features in the next release. One of the main features is the cloud storage integration, which was one of my main required features. I've had more difficult experiences with other platforms than with this one."
"I would like to see the operations center be a lot more functional. It was nowhere near as functional as the admin center, and I'm doing a lot of command line with it."
"Our new leadership has pushed us to go more toward the cloud, so we are definitely going to leverage anything we can in that direction."
