Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The user interface is good."
"The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes."
"The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want."
"Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great."
"Having the web-based interface is important to us because we can access it from any computer in the network, rather than having it installed and available for use only on a specific one."
"The interface is very user-friendly."
"The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration."
"If a job is pending, the solution communicates it to us through emails."
"The ability to diversify jobs within the same server helps break down a large chunk of data into more manageable and concentrated chunks."
"The predictive analytics are great and the reporting is awesome."
"Stability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten."
"When I have had to use tech support, they've been very good."
"It is a quick and easy way to organize my backups and to keep track of them."
"The backup feature and recovery option are good because they allow the instant recovery of Hyper-V nodes and files."
"It is an easy system to use. The support, if needed, is always willing to help."
"What I found most valuable in Unitrends is its simple user interface. It also works reliably."
"The stability of the solution is poor."
"The storage capacity is very low."
"The interface can be improved. It should be more clear what features are available and make them easy to find."
"There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily."
"In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."
"The initial setup is a little complex."
"I would like to see the option of cloud-based management."
"There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency."
"I would like to see more storage options for the free version."
"The solution's base operating system needs to be improved."
"The solution’s support and onboarding process needs to be improved."
"Unitrends can be challenging to scale."
"Probably the biggest issue I've had is actually paying for the unit, and part of that problem is that they use a third party for the billing."
"There are a few quirks where the GUI, agent, and back-end are not precisely meshed."
"It seems like Unitrends moved away from enterprise customer engagement and moved more towards the managed service provider market."
"If the interface could be less complex, it is would be great."
