Reliable backups have protected all cloud data and now provide quick recovery for users
The features include easy setup, easy to use, and unlimited storage. Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup has positively impacted my organization by helping us with lost productivity when someone deletes a cloud-stored item and we can retrieve it easily. With wrong creation of Teams and no owners assigned, we get notified. It helps me worry less that in the worst-case scenario, mailboxes and Teams are easily restorable to continue with online learning at a very low risk. It also proves useful, for instance, where a user accidentally loses or deletes an important email or a file in the mailbox. The team can easily restore what has been lost.

Cloud backup has reduced storage costs and now delivers fast, reliable data recovery
My overall experience in this field is seven years. The deployment model I have chosen for Druva Phoenix is mostly cloud-based backup. Government authorities and government customers majorly opt for on-premises deployment, but we have a very limited customer segment from that area. Druva Phoenix primarily operates on a private cloud, with some customers utilizing hybrid cloud solutions. If I assess the effectiveness of backup features in Druva Phoenix, particularly in minimizing operational disruptions, I would rate it as a very strong 9 or 9.5 on a scale of 10. I am not using Druva Data Security Cloud. My overall review rating for Druva Phoenix is 9.

Pros

"Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup has positively impacted our organization by boosting our security posture from 40% to 70%."
"Overall, it's a good product, and I've been happy with its capabilities."
"Overall, I am a very satisfied user of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup."
"The initial setup is pretty simple."
"The product enables us to restore lost files."
"The product is deployable anywhere; it is also scalable and reliable."
"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."
"We've noticed fewer data losses by 90% compared to our previous tool since implementing Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup."
"I found the cost-effectiveness of Druva Phoenix to be its most valuable feature, especially when compared to on-premises backup solutions."
"Once you set it up and you tell it exactly what needs to be backed up, you literally forget about it. It sends you emails and notifications of the current status of the jobs."
"Druva Phoenix provides a return on investment and operational cost reductions after implementation."
"Druva Phoenix is easy to use and easy to start with."
"One of the best features in Druva Phoenix for me personally is that it is an air-gapped environment, where you can keep cloud backup on a separate air-gapped environment and save from any kind of ransomware attack, and it is a ransomware safer environment because a customer gets a separate environment."
"The best features of Druva Phoenix include comprehensive backup capabilities where you can back up your data with agent plus backup, deploy the proxy, and integrate your VMs to take your backup."
"The solution is great for companies that need backup capabilities."
"I would definitively say that we have been able to make our people more productive by at least 30%."
 

Cons

"They should adapt to new parameters as the market grows."
"Also, when searching for a user to restore, the feature does not work correctly."
"The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft 365 customers. I don't have a good solution for my G-suite customers."
"We needed assistance with the implementation of the solution from the vendor. The process could be easier."
"The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft 365 customers. I don't have a good solution for my G-suite customers."
"The solution may be improved by allowing integration with other platforms."
"Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup can be improved by addressing that when performing a restore, the search filter and the mailbox filter can be confusing, depending on what you want to achieve."
"The solution may be improved by allowing integration with other platforms."
"The product's pricing needs to be improved."
"There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix."
"The ransomware features are limited in Druva. There's a lot of improvement needed. It should extend to Nutanix and Hyper-V. It should extend to Azure as well."
"Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently."
"Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern."
"The price is always one of those things that you always look to just improve if you're a not-for-profit organization."
"Although, sometimes there is a restriction with the number of OS platforms that this solution supports."
"They were very much responsive a few years back, but in the last one or two years, I believe the responsiveness has gone down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is a cost-effective solution."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"The product's pricing is based on the customer's needs because every customer is different."
"The product's pricing is fair and competitive."
"The price is reasonable compared to other products."
"I assume clients use Druva Phoenix because it is cheaper than other products."
"We’ve had experience with the data center for a while and we have had solutions that were able to support older versions of the operating systems that we needed. I would like for Druva to support it as well."
"It's very costly. Normal people wouldn't understand how their credits are calculated. It's pretty complex."
"Druva Phoenix's pricing is based on the service provided, and it's reasonable. The cost of the service will depend on the size of your data and the number of virtual machines being backed up. However, the pricing structure is straightforward and easy to understand."
