Plenty of useful feature and reliable

We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Support and connection issues affect user experience

I currently work at TCS in a different domain using AWS and Azure cloud backup. I switched from Cognizant to TCS four months ago, where I previously used Cohesity Data Cloud and Cohesity tools. I prefer Cohesity Data Cloud over AWS. While cloud functionality is similar across platforms, Cohesity Data Cloud's console, options, and web console are superior to AWS. The pricing of Cohesity Data Cloud depends on the data volume and retention period. Compared to alternatives, Cohesity Data Cloud is somewhat expensive. Regarding technical aspects, connection issues need to be addressed promptly. I would rate it eight out of ten, as these issues require immediate resolution to meet client requirements. Overall review rating: 9/10.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."

"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."

"I have found all the features useful in the solution."

"The solution has been very stable."

"My favorite feature of Cohesity Data Cloud is the setup, as it is very fast compared to other solutions; I have worked in different clouds, and Cohesity Data Cloud stands out as superior."

"Its big data and archive data features are the features that I have found most valuable. I can use it in a big virtual environment."

"Cohesity Data Cloud comes with a different flavor where they provide global deduplication across multiple platforms, which provides a tremendous return on investment from a storage perspective because if you have a segment that can be deduplicated in one box and you have multiple boxes, you cannot repeat the deduplication function across different hardware."

"Cohesity Data Cloud is user-friendly, and anyone can use this tool; the support is really good, especially the web support, and the dashboard and everything are good."

"The clone feature is very nice. You can restore workloads onto Cohesity's storage, which is also nice to have when you don't have enough space to restore on the server."

"I rate the Cohesity Data Cloud solution a ten out of ten. It's an easy-to-use product that provides substantial value and security."

"It has excellent integration for virtualization, which means we can easily protect VMs, virtual machines, which consists mainly of snapshot backups that are quite easy to recover."

"We use Cohesity Helios primarily in our data management strategy for backup and reporting."

More Cohesity Data Cloud pros

Cons

"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."

"The management could be a bit better."

"The downside of Cohesity Data Cloud is that it is not supporting a legacy environment."

"They still have quite some way to go for improving their agents."

"The pricing of the Cloud is on the higher side, and it should be cost-effective enough to compete with native solutions."

"The primary drawback is the need to transfer large amounts of data to the cloud via an internet connection, requiring significant bandwidth."

"The limitation that I see in Cohesity is that the minimum sized node is 36 terabytes, which is more than a small customer needs."

"In terms of functionality, Helios has been effective, but sometimes it doesn't show the exact cluster name for backups."

"It has never been touted as a tier-one storage platform, and that would be a benefit. They are currently working on solving that issue."

"Sometimes the support team does not provide proper assistance during critical issues from the cloud end."
