Pros
"Arcserve UDP has a good configuration and user interface. It makes the job of an administrator easy.""The interface is very refined, works fine, and is very intuitive most of the time. Scalability is nice. The multi-tenancy feature is very welcome. The integration with Linux works fine too.""The most valuable features are that it is able to restore quickly and that it is able to virtually restore on Hyper-V.""It is very stable.""This product is extremely user-friendly and it is capable of performing large-scale archive/backup (five+ years worth). It is easy to store, maintain, and check backups.""The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication.""The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup.""I would recommend it if there is a general case."

"Database replication is most valuable. It is multi-platform, so it can replicate from a variety of different database types to a variety of different database types.""The product's initial setup phase was straightforward and simple."

Cons
"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those.""We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information.""Licensing can be quite difficult.""They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it.""The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues.""Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue.""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.""Backups are very slow and time consuming."

More Arcserve UDP Cons →

"The high cost of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""It does data manipulation language (DML) replication, but it does not do data definition language (DDL) replication. In my opinion, it is a disadvantage. It would be nicer if it was able to do both DML and DDL. I'm not 100% certain of this, but it seems Oracle Golden Gate does both DML and DDL. MIMIX only does DML, and it would be very nice if they included DDL replication. This is one feature that would be very helpful to have."

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 →

  • "The licensing provides the access to support. I do know that there's an annual charge for being able to call into their support line and get a technical team from Precisely to assist with any issues we may have. I don't think there are any additional costs other than what we incur internally in terms of the infrastructure that we need to run and operate the product."
  • "The cost of the product is too high."
