Reliable backups have protected email and servers and now enable rapid ransomware recovery

For the smaller Datto SIRIS devices that are made for backing up one or maybe two different machines, adding more RAM and giving it a better CPU would be phenomenal. Sometimes when dealing with entry-level Datto SIRIS products, you face an issue depending on how much storage there is on there when it's trying to parse through all of the data. It takes a while, and when it comes to data recovery, time is everything. Datto SIRIS should remove the ability to set it up as a NAS-based file share operation system. It seems counterintuitive for something that is made for immutable storage that is walled off so that it can't be destroyed to be allowed to be a local centralized file share that individuals have access to. This seems to be begging for a mishap. Datto SIRIS will require some maintenance when the hard drive gets past 50% capacity, which is Datto's statement on the capacity. You should never use past 50% of the storage locally. Then you have to reach out to Datto directly to get an external hard drive to transfer files to send off the data for it to be shot up to the cloud. We've had a couple of instances of devices not uploading to the cloud because either they were too full or there were failures in certain parts of the file upload to the cloud, which put it into a circle of death where it just kept trying to do the same thing over and over again and had to request assistance from Datto in those situations. Otherwise, if you store it in a dusty cabinet, you have to spray it with a computer duster every once in a while.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."

"Smooth integration into customer's environment, interactive UI."

"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."

"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."

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

"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."

"The solution has been very stable."

"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."

More Asigra pros

"Datto SIRIS has positively impacted my organization by drastically reducing downtime, with recovery from server failures now taking just five to ten minutes."

"The best feature of Datto SIRIS is that we are just two clicks away from remoting into the client environment, and we can fetch all the information in one place."

"Datto SIRIS has changed my recovery time objectives significantly, as it is excellent, taking minimal time, with a simple and smoother interface that allows for a shorter backup process compared to other applications I have used, such as Commvault."

"Since I started using Datto SIRIS, the time to recover data or servers has improved significantly; before, restoring a file or server was very long with the normal backup system, Datto reduced the time much more when I needed to recover a file or a machine."

"Datto SIRIS works out of the box and it is a key feature that we really appreciate."

"Instant Virtualization is the best feature of Datto SIRIS that we have liked so far, as it allows us to boot servers in minutes during outages."

"Previously, three hours were spent on troubleshooting and everything, but now with Datto SIRIS, issues are resolved in half an hour or less."

"The effectiveness of Datto SIRIS in ransomware recovery is fantastic; I would say it's the best, hands down."

Cons

"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."

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

"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."

"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."

"I wouldn't describe it as a scalable solution."

"More integration with leading storage solutions."

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

"The UI could do with a facelift."

More Asigra cons

"For improvements in Datto SIRIS, I would suggest enhancing large-scale virtualization performance and providing more transparent pricing, as that is often complex for MSPs and end customers."

"In my opinion about Datto SIRIS, areas for improvement include increasing speed in recovery processes and strengthening security to enhance the product's overall effectiveness in backup and disaster management."

"I was disappointed with the processing power and the storage capacity of the ALTO 5 device. Within two weeks of deploying it, I was getting emails that I need to upgrade it."

"I have not seen any reduction in disaster recovery testing hours from Datto SIRIS."

"The cost is higher compared to other platforms in the market like Veeam or Acronis."

"The pricing offered to MSPs for Datto SIRIS is okay, but the ability for MSPs, their upcharge when it comes down to small, medium businesses, SMB clients, is actually putting Datto out of the market for SMB clients, especially with the ability to purchase Dropbox and all these cloud-based storage solutions now."

"The backup of the Mac OS solution in Datto SIRIS doesn't exist at this moment."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
