Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product provides instant and virtual standbys.""The most valuable feature is the duplication.""It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them.""The ease of use is the best feature of the product.""The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup.""The standard backup and restore feature is most used.""It is very stable.""The backup is the most valuable feature.

"Hyper-convergence gives me the ability to patch my firmware, software, and hypervisors with a single click. That is extremely useful.""The solution is stable.""It offers synchronous data replication, allowing us to sync our recovery data every hour and efficiently send applications to remote sites.""We haven't needed anyone to maintain or deploy the solution. The traditional Nutanix administrator can administer the solution.""It is a very secure and scalable solution, and their support is also outstanding.""The tool's most valuable feature is ease of use."

Cons
"I had an issue with Arcserve UDP during the failover and the secondary machine didn't get back online, even though it ran automatically. I faced the issue during a crisis situation. However, I haven't faced such a problem again.""StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast.""The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear.""Its interface can be improved. I find it unintuitive.""The technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The support could be more knowledgeable and faster.""The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS.""Every time I change the disc, I have to do a full backup."

More Arcserve UDP Cons →

"The solution needs improvement in cost.""I think that Nutanix should support public clouds instead of the Nutanix data centers.""The pricing could be better.""They need better reporting on the environment.""For moving the data for DR, we are using Megaport. We are using a Megaport link between the data centers, so we have a third party for the site-to-site connectivity between the data centers. If such connectivity is available from the Nutanix side, it would be helpful for us.""The product is more costly than other platforms. The price could be better."

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."
  • More Arcserve UDP Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Besides the license, there are additional costs with the network connection. The customer may want a direct connection between the two data centers and that has an extra cost."
  • "I always want it to be cheaper."
  • "One-time costs may initially seem high, but they reflect the quality of the service received."
  • "It is a little bit cheaper than the other products in the market. It is affordable."
