Offers good time navigation features and we haven't had stability problems in the twelve years we've been using it
The initial setup was supposed to be complex, and a guy from Atempto went to our site and they did it with us together. So, in the end, it was quite clear and straightforward. The deployment took one day. From time to time, we require maintenance. Most things can be done also automatically. We prefer to do some manually like recycling virtual cartridges. Two people are required for maintenance. Two people use it daily. Time Navigator runs daily, for some backups, even more, three, four times a day, for critical stuff. But for intervention, we have two, three per week.

Adopting advanced convergence and seamless management elevates data protections
While there are improvements to be made, such as providing support for older systems like IBM iSeries and tandem systems from HP, the solution overall shifts from older methods to modern practices. Customers looking for features that older systems provided might find gaps, but these are typically for very specific needs.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The time navigation is the most valuable feature."
"When compared to other tools, the deduplication in Cohesity DataProtect is very fast, and the restore performance is better than other tools."
"I like that Cohesity offers the chance to have data on-premises and on the cloud. All the data is automatically sent to the cloud."
"Cohesity is a cost-effective storage designed for secondary or archival data. It also integrates well with a number of other systems, like VMware, Pure Storage, or AWS with its large array of APIs available to the user."
"One of the most valuable features is the restore functionality that they offer."
"Cohesity is extremely easy to use and intuitive."
"The most valuable aspect for me is that I don't have to deal with media in terms of tapes like our existing system does."
"The support is awesome. They are very fast, competent and friendly."
"With instant DR failover using SiteContinuity, we are able to keep our files available no matter the situation."
 

Cons

"They are working on the improvement we're looking for. The web GUI is flash-based and in around one or two months, they will put everything on HTML5."
"There is limited support for legacy systems, which is something that could be improved."
"The rack mounting instructions did not appear to be correct, but we were able to overcome it."
"I would like to see Cohesity have the ability to do a file level restore from a Windows server, which is storing data on dynamic disk."
"The error handling could be improved."
"The support team could do a better job. Sometimes finding the correct person is cumbersome and time consuming."
"Better documentation is needed because the lack of information has necessitated having our team depend more heavily on Cohesity support."
"Reducing storage capacity requirements and improving security features are also areas that could be enhanced."
"You need to put the full name instead of a few letters while searching for backup. It should also improve customization."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"If SQL is in heavy use at your location, I would highly recommend narrowing your PoC testing to Cohesity and Rubrik. They will be competitive on pricing with each other, so really put them through the paces."
"From my last assessment, the pricing for Cohesity DataProtect was reasonable. Compared to its closest competitor, Rubrik, I found Rubrik's pricing to be somewhat high-end. While Rubrik may have more advanced security features than Cohesity DataProtect currently, Cohesity DataProtect is releasing a new solution in the near future that will compete directly with Rubrik."
"It has reasonable pricing, and we know they can give discounts. If you look at the primary pricing or the list pricing, it conforms to the market pricing, but you have to have a discount on it. Otherwise, it is way too expensive."
"We purchased support from Cohesity to ensure that should we face an issue, we don't have to deal with different service providers."
"The solution's pricing is in the mid-range, where it's neither costly nor cheap."
"I expect the system to probably pay off within the first two years."
"Licensing is per node and per protected terabyte. You will also pay 10-15% annually for support."
"Cohesity came in at the best price. Setup was included and done in half a day."
