Pros
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication.""I like the tool's speed.""The most valuable features of this solution are that I can by just one click, copy and paste anything that I would want. I do not have to restore the whole virtual machine.""Easy restoration and the solution works quickly.""It is a very stable solution...It is a scalable solution.""The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup.""One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature.""I would recommend it if there is a general case."

Cons
"The tool doesn't provide cloud integration in India.""They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it.""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.""The solution's reporting could be improved and should provide customized reports.""Licensing can be quite difficult.""In the most recent version of premium plus the replication has been removed, and it should re-added to the solution.""The initial setup was complex.""Every time I change the disc, I have to do a full backup."

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."
