Featured Reviews

Shiva Kinnera - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Ingvar  Ingason - PeerSpot reviewer
An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One of the most outstanding features is forever incremental, which provides immutable backups."
"I rate the Cohesity Data Cloud solution a ten out of ten. It's an easy-to-use product that provides substantial value and security."
"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."
"Our data center size occupancy for Cohesity appliance is reduced by 70% when we installed Cohesity."
"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."
"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 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."
"It has excellent integration for virtualization, which means we can easily protect VMs, virtual machines, which consists mainly of snapshot backups that are quite easy to recover."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
 

Cons

"The primary drawback is the need to transfer large amounts of data to the cloud via an internet connection, requiring significant bandwidth."
"They still have quite some way to go for improving their agents."
"The downside of Cohesity Data Cloud is that it is not supporting a legacy environment."
"One of the worst situations occurred when the sizing team did not get the correct subscription, usage, and capacity from Cohesity."
"The pricing of the Cloud is on the higher side, and it should be cost-effective enough to compete with native solutions."
"In terms of functionality, Helios has been effective, but sometimes it doesn't show the exact cluster name for backups."
"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."
"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 price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"It could be cheaper."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's priced properly for the market."
"Regarding pricing, it's very costly and I rate it a four."
"Competing products sometimes use deceptive marketing to make their products seem a lot cheaper. Comparing apples-to-apples, DataPlatform wins out."
"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is affordable or low, and ten is expensive or high, I rate the price as two."
"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."
"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
