Technical Lead at Cognizant

Support and connection issues affect user experience

I currently work at TCS in a different domain using AWS and Azure cloud backup. I switched from Cognizant to TCS four months ago, where I previously used Cohesity Data Cloud and Cohesity tools. I prefer Cohesity Data Cloud over AWS. While cloud functionality is similar across platforms, Cohesity Data Cloud's console, options, and web console are superior to AWS. The pricing of Cohesity Data Cloud depends on the data volume and retention period. Compared to alternatives, Cohesity Data Cloud is somewhat expensive. Regarding technical aspects, connection issues need to be addressed promptly. I would rate it eight out of ten, as these issues require immediate resolution to meet client requirements. Overall review rating: 9/10.

Central console has simplified multi-region deployments and now supports quick customer insights

Druva Data Security Cloud is used with AWS cloud and is public only, with AWS serving as the backend infrastructure. The customer never receives billing for AWS, as the customer receives billing from Druva only.From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud. This product is mature, and we do not need to hesitate about it, as it has wider acceptance in the market. AI-driven analytics in Druva Data Security Cloud help to optimize data security by providing correct suggestions and prioritizing action. Given the amount of data security products available and the sprawl of information and tickets that get raised with various concerns that come up, AI is definitely necessary to drill down.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I definitely recommend this tool to others due to its simplicity, security, features, and flexibility."

"Its big data and archive data features are the features that I have found most valuable. I can use it in a big virtual environment."

"Cohesity Data Cloud is user-friendly, and anyone can use this tool; the support is really good, especially the web support, and the dashboard and everything are good."

"My favorite feature of Cohesity Data Cloud is the setup, as it is very fast compared to other solutions; I have worked in different clouds, and Cohesity Data Cloud stands out as superior."

"Cohesity Data Cloud comes with a different flavor where they provide global deduplication across multiple platforms, which provides a tremendous return on investment from a storage perspective because if you have a segment that can be deduplicated in one box and you have multiple boxes, you cannot repeat the deduplication function across different hardware."

"One of the most outstanding features is forever incremental, which provides immutable backups."

"It is easy to install and use."

"Our data center size occupancy for Cohesity appliance is reduced by 70% when we installed Cohesity."

More Cohesity Data Cloud pros

"From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud."

"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."

"The centralized management console in this solution and AI-driven analytics are good features."

"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."

Cons

"There is limited support for legacy systems, which is something that could be improved."

"Sometimes the support team does not provide proper assistance during critical issues from the cloud end."

"The pricing of the Cloud is on the higher side, and it should be cost-effective enough to compete with native solutions."

"The only concern I have with cloud implementation is that if you have a presence on-premises, trying to use the cloud may become a performance challenge."

"Sometimes the support team does not provide proper assistance during critical issues from the cloud end."

"The pricing of the Cloud is on the higher side, and it should be cost-effective enough to compete with native solutions."

"It has never been touted as a tier-one storage platform, and that would be a benefit. They are currently working on solving that issue."

"The initial setup can be complex, depending on the environment."

More Cohesity Data Cloud cons

"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."

"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."

"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's priced properly for the market."

"Competing products sometimes use deceptive marketing to make their products seem a lot cheaper. Comparing apples-to-apples, DataPlatform wins out."

"Regarding pricing, it's very costly and I rate it a four."
