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…

Easy to work and offers features for tape backups, disk backups, and whatever you want
NovaStor NovaBACKUP is still working on new features because they listen to the customers and integrate their needs into new versions. You can see they make progress with each new version. They are much faster than IBM, where you sometimes have to wait years for new features. It is very quick and fast. NovaStor have big competitors like Veeam, which is very fast and aggressive. It's good, but it depends on the price. I think NovaStor might be cheaper. They have a direct connection to their developers and sales teams, which makes getting answers very fast. Veeam has a lot of features, like a special reporting tool. However, I've heard from some customers that Veeam wasn't always the right decision because it couldn't work with their environment. But Veeam has aggressive marketing, which is why they are probably in first place at the moment, besides Commvault. IBM has lost its competitive edge and is trying to catch up, but it might be too late.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The Asigra product on the whole is a fantastic solution and I would highly recommend this as it delivers everything our business and our subsequent customers required."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"Simplicity, very easy to restore user data, means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes."
"Cloud backup is easier to manage and administer than our previous tape solution."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"The cost is very reasonable; it's one of the cheapest options on the market, and any company can easily afford this product."
"It is a very good and easy-to-use tool for non-technical people."
"It's the easiest way to configure it."
"NovaBACKUP protects your entire system with a single solution."
 

Cons

"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"There are improvements required with the virtualization solution, I'm sure we will see a significant change in 2017."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"The price of NovaStor NovaBACKUP is an area that can be considered as a weakness or drawback, where improvements are required."
"The room for improvement lies in the compatibility of NovaBACKUP with older operating systems."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the solution's maintenance and support."
