A reliable backup solution that needs to incorporate a flexible pricing model
We use Boxafe for backup.  I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days.  Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible.  I have been working with the product for seven years.  The product is stable.  I rate Boxafe's scalability an eight out of…
Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

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

Pros

"I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days."
"The most valuable feature was the repository."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"The way they handle the backups is pretty good."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."
"On a scale of 1-10, I rate this solution a 10."
"It has a straightforward installation."
 

Cons

"Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. This is the issue, the reason why we started using Synology."
"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The speed could be better."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
