PH
Experienced easy deployment and stable performance but user support needs improvement
The most valuable features are that BetterCloud had a much more sophisticated workflow management toolset than Google itself. It was easy to build onboarding and offboarding workflows, which could handle the desired complexity versus out-of-the-box Google. BetterCloud allowed us to reallocate storage so all files created by a departing member would get reallocated to the manager, thus retaining access. BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment. BetterCloud now offers SaaS platform tracking capabilities, a key, previously missing feature.
Daniel Ogola - PeerSpot reviewer
The appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment.
The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment."
"The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Some of the tool's best features include an enhanced dashboard and strong security features compared to native Veritas. Our environment is entirely automated."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
"What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on."
"The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful."
"It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
 

Cons

"The account support team was weak in engagement and communication, contributing to the decision to move to more comprehensive solutions."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching."
"The technical team wasn't very helpful."
"Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."
"The usability of the solution isn't the best."
"Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons."
"An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job."
"They should review the cost aspect of the subscription for Veritas Alta SaaS Protection because customers are going for the cheaper storage, which doesn't give those features in terms of dedup ratios."
