We performed a comparison between Arcserve UDP and Veritas NetBackup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's simple to set up."
"It is very stable."
"Our customers are happy with the product’s functionality."
"The solution has no limitations because it does backup for Linux and Windows."
"The recovery part of the product is very good."
"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 data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is the initiative UI and the logs are clear and detailed that are generated when there has been an issue or failure on the user's system. We only have to log onto the client's system to retrieve the information. It is possible to precisely identify the problem's location. The system categorizes and logs every step in a structured manner, selectively displaying only the essential logs. However, to view a comprehensive log, one must access the line machine log and examine the actual client for detailed logging."
"The reporting is very good, with all of the details highlighted and very clear."
"It is important, when we chose a solution, that the customer service/technical support team could help us when we needed it, but the support was good."
"I like the virtual server backup."
"The feature that is most useful for us is that it backs up every application that we own."
"It is easy to use, and you can run it with all kinds of client software environments. It works well with the most popular software, file systems, and operating systems. It is very useful to us."
"The documentation is good."
"We can easily expand the ability of the solution."
"I am comfortable with using this product."
"We have to use a Microsoft hypervisor for installation which is expensive."
"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."
"Licensing is an area that needs improvement."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"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 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."
"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."
"We cannot restore each user's mailbox. Each user's mailbox should be independently restorable. Also, this solution is very slow. If you select all of the servers, it runs for a long time... It needs to be faster. Finally, If anything happens to one server we should be able to switch to another server."
"The solution could have a more clear dashboard about the license and the operation status."
"It's a little bit complex to manage."
"It is not very user-friendly."
"Its integration with Nutanix and technical support can be improved."
"The licensing costs could be more affordable."
"DDBoost."
"The biggest problem with NetBackup is licensing."
"The deployment time is longer than it is with other products."
