Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The solution’s scalability is good because its space is unlimited. We can start in Office365 with one terabyte bit of information and leverage through an enterprise solution of 1000 users."
"The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases."
"It is an excellent product. It is easy to deploy, stable, and fast. Their support is excellent."
"Reverse Delta is Altaro proprietary backup deduplication technology. With Reverse Delta, the latest version of a file is always made available in its entirety, not as a delta file."
"We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"The interface is user-friendly and even if our tech isn't onsite, we can work with the owners to confirm that the data will be restored with no issues."

"An improvement is required in reports and backups for sharing on Linux and Unix."
"Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"The scalability of the solution is limited."
"Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't."
"Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
"Stability."
"The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
"Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup."
