We use it to backup some high output critical physical servers, knowing that in case of disaster we could still recover to our VM environment. The user interface needs improvement.
The user interface needs improvement, the selection boxes to select a backup job are very small not adequate for managing 400+ backup jobs, we only see 8 job names in the small scroll window. The scheduler features are lacking, we must edit backup specs to reach the option to change the schedule. The new reporting feature has greatly improved the product, prior to this it was very difficult to have a full view of our backup schedules when scheduling a new job. Since the move from Syncsort to Catalogic, the quality control of upgrades has diminished and backups that used to work could not be restored without contacting Catalogic for a fix. We still see a lot of value in the product, but hope that the next few updates will not cause more issues... We wanted a mission critical enterprise solution, and sincerely hope that the future upgrades will bring the product back on track.

Centralized backups have reduced operational effort and improve ransomware recovery readiness
Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS can be improved by adding reporting capability and the possibility for predictive insights if a backup is going to fail earlier, as we have with artificial intelligence-driven solutions. Additionally, more compression or deduplication to optimize storage would be beneficial, and if it could be integrated to allow us to create policies using an infrastructure as code framework, that would provide an easier, automated way to manage policies. Regarding Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS's artificial intelligence capabilities, I think its governance and security should improve more as they are not on par. Prediction of backup failure should be available, and it is not that accurate. I am not entirely sure about the accuracy and reliability of the artificial intelligence output because it is not that accurate. I have not used it that much. Since I saw that the basic configuration and backup configuration worked well, the solution has been reliable in our experience with consistent backup execution and successful recovery testing. Automated monitoring and alerting helped identify issues proactively, which improves confidence in recovery objectives and recovery time objectives.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Catalogic has great features including the ability to P2V from snapvaults, and recently the addition of agent-less backups for Linux."
"By implementing an OVF (docker based) and without any agents on your servers, you’ll get a system which provides you with: Orchestration, Automation DR and Data analytics."
"Overall, these features make day-to-day backup operations more structured, reduce operational overhead, and improve confidence around recovery preparedness and cloud resilience."
"Previously, if we had any disaster or any issue, it would take days to bring the environment back up to the original state, and with Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS, we can do that within a couple of hours, which greatly reduces downtime in the case of disaster recovery."
"Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS helped us automate backup scheduling and policy management, gave us centralized visibility with a dashboard across AWS workloads of multiple accounts, helped us with a faster recovery process, and majorly reduced our operational overhead while improving our ransomware and data protection."
 

Cons

"And hearing about all these awesome posibilities, it kind of struck me that this was only possible with NetApp storage."
"Since the move from Syncsort to Catalogic, the quality control of upgrades has diminished and backups that used to work could not be restored without contacting Catalogic for a fix."
"Regarding customer support, as this is a very new product and relatively new in the market, I am not sure how long they have been around, but there seems to be a lack of understanding with the support team."
"One area where Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS could improve is expanding advanced analytics and predictive monitoring capabilities, especially for identifying backup risks, storage optimization opportunities, and recovery readiness trends more proactively."
"Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS has a fairly small market presence."
