Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."It's pretty simple. Once you set it, it goes; and then the idea of being able to get it to the cloud very quickly. It's kind of a set-it-forget-it."
"You can store backups for a while."
"Most importantly is having that island into that datacenter, and being able to address things in the same console. Thus, it is irrelevant where it's stored."
"Its initial setup is easy."
"The most valuable feature is the portability of large archived data. You're able to put things on large on-prem, low-cost storage and then augment that with even lower cost storage in the cloud."
"The flexibility. Being able to virtualize it, port it wherever I like, test my backups, test my DR capabilities whenever I like without impacting anybody."
"It's so easy to work with."
"The solution is very easy to use and it offers great support."
"Veeam is very useful for the Hyper-V environment."
"The interface of this solution is quite good."
"The most valuable feature is application availability, which allows us to monitor all agents and accounts."
"The most valuable feature is that it's a VMware environment."
"Technical support is good. They're very responsive. It depends on the timezone responding, but I usually get a response within three hours of creating a ticket."
"To do the actual backup configuration is also not too bad."
"This is a good product with a simple environment."
"The most valuable features are backup and restore. This solution is also easy to use."
"More than a 500 volume limit. At the moment, it only supports up to 500 volumes for SnapMirror and that's a problem. We've got 750, so a larger limit for volume replicas for SnapMirror."
"More capacity with the basic model of the AltaVault would probably help out."
"There are some bits it could do better. With tighter integration maybe with Veeam, or something like that, it'd be really good."
"The solution needs faster indexing."
"It's a good product, but it's becoming outdated and moving to their other primary architecture."
"I really want to partner it with the SnapCenter. We haven't implemented that yet. We're upgrading all of our stuff to the ONTAP 9, which you had to have."
"I would like to see more web support."
"The initial setup phase of the tool was difficult."
"I've found a lot of difficulties on the initial setup and especially in terms of credentials. We really need a Window OS. It doesn't like the domain admin account. it's a primary permission issue."
"There isn't really anything I would like to improve. Maybe the solution could be more secure."
"Maybe in the future, they could do something better with the user interface and the performance, but so far it's a really good, efficient solution."
"We need some sort of security for backups and archives."
"If you are doing an AIX backup then you have to use the CLI because it doesn't appear on the console, the way that Windows and Linux jobs do."
"The solution's compression ratio and high speed for backing up can always improve. Aspects that need improvement are less time, better quality, higher security, and more compression. These are continuous requirements for any customer."
"Troubleshooting is very hard."
"If they could let you can do replication to physical servers - a backup from physical servers and a replication to physical servers - that will be better."
