"The recovery part of the product is very good."

"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 to use, good stability, and disk space gain with greater data protection and we were able to replicate the environment to another place or other platform at no additional cost."

"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, I can just right-click, open it in Arcserve view, and copy anything I want to add to the production, and the restore function is very fast, which is a huge benefit."

"The data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."

"Easy restoration and the solution works quickly."

"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication."

"I like that they have some new devices that are simpler to use because they kind of tie right into the cloud."

"The technical support has been very good."

"I like that they have some new devices that are simpler to use because they kind of tie right into the cloud."

"The most valuable feature is the backups."

"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly."

"The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS."

"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."

"I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve."

"The initial setup was complex, but with the help of our IT and engineering staff, it was quite straightforward."

"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."

"The technical support was horrible. That's why we switched."

"The high use of RAM memory is a headache for those who want to implement the system with all the resources in use."

"StorageCraft ShadowXafe should improve the on-premises console management controls and protection and recovery."

"StorageCraft ShadowXafe should improve the on-premises console management controls and protection and recovery."

"I wouldn't use it. It failed me every time I tried to use it in a real-life scenario."

"Their restoration protocols could be better. I pulled all my clients out of their cloud mostly because I wasn't confident that they could restore out of the cloud. This was backed up by friends who had been burned by stuff like that. We moved away because of the lack of resources to restore from a potential catastrophic failure. It's challenging, and in some cases, they couldn't do it because they didn't have enough resources. For example, if there was a major disaster, and everybody needed their images out of the cloud, they couldn't give them to everybody."

"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."

"I do not work with the pricing or licensing issues of the solution for our organization."

"Pricing is most likely comparable."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a four or five out of ten."

"The price of StorageCraft ShadowProtect is competitive in the market."

"The solution is not very expensive, but it is not cheap."

"The solution is very expensive."

"They are more expensive than some of the others out there. We have gone away from their cloud due to pricing."
