"It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field.""The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful.""I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope.""The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature.""What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on.""The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it.""he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources.""The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."

Cons
"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly.""The initial setup was complex.""Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue.""It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups.""We are looking at scaling up to the cloud and using immutable copies on the cloud. Arcserve UDP 8.0 does have the immutable feature supporting AWS, but I'm looking for multi-cloud support. So, I'm waiting for Arcserve to release that in the next release.""I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve.""In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution.""One of the biggest drawbacks of Arcserve UDP is that it does not have a single console, making it an area that needs to be considered for improvement."

More Arcserve UDP Cons →

"When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas.""The technical team wasn't very helpful.""The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.""The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items.""An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job.""The usability of the solution isn't the best.""The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching.""Technical support can be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I do not work with the pricing or licensing issues of the solution for our organization."
  • "We only have the maintenance of three standard UDP licenses. Each license is 50 Euro. There are some additional costs for the storage and software but it has nothing to do with the UDP."
  • "Normally our customers purchase the premium plus license, rather than the standard one, which provides more options."
  • "The price of this product is high and it should be lower."
  • "It is approximately $400 to purchase a virtual service outright."
  • "There is an annual license required for this solution and it is priced well."
  • "Pricing is most likely comparable."
  • "The retail fee is $1300 for a year for one server. Other than that, there is just the cost of your hardware."

  • "The program is quite expensive."
  • "SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
