We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""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 main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete.""If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple.""Druva inSync is very easy to use.""It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible.""The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."

"The compression, because it drastically reduces the disk space.""It has reduced our backup time and simplified our backup processes across all the servers."

Cons
"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.""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.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""It would be good if bare metal backups were possible.""This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud.""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 support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."

"The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection.""Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason.""I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client."

    Questions from the Community

    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 »
