AmarpreetSingh

Technical Architect at Wipro Limited

Offers improved data protection and security with indirect ROI

The pricing of the Cloud is on the higher side, and it should be cost-effective enough to compete with native solutions. Currently, Cohesity Cloud seems very costly compared to native backups. Although this is an emerging tool and there is room for growth, it needs to mature further. There is an AI feature, however, it is still in the development phase and requires substantial improvements.

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

Pros

"It's very regimented and fast. It does local backup, cloud backup, long-term coverage, and disaster recovery."

"I find the most important feature to be data protection."

"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."

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

"We use Cohesity Helios primarily in our data management strategy for backup and reporting."

"The user interface is very user-friendly, making it easy for customers to understand and use."

Cons

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

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

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

"The primary drawback is the need to transfer large amounts of data to the cloud via an internet connection, requiring significant bandwidth."

"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."

"Their documentation portal is not up to date for newer releases and I strongly recommend Cohesity to increase their efforts on the documentation portal."

"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."

More Cohesity Data Cloud cons

"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"It's priced properly for the market."
