Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery.
Using Cohesity DataProtect is easier to manage, and it simplifies various components into one architecture, reducing the need for extensive human resources to manage backups.
The support can depend on the region, and for larger customers, I advise having a Technical Account Manager for better assistance.
When their technical person is online, the quality of service and technical knowledge are very good.
I would rate their technical support a 10 out of 10.
Most cases are handled perfectly.
Cohesity DataProtect is built on a scale-out architecture, which means it can effectively scale to meet various needs.
Dell Avamar offers very good scalability.
Integration with other vendors is also seamless.
In order to scale Veeam Data Platform, we have to pay a lot more money.
On the whole, any problems were more related to hardware limitations rather than issues with Cohesity DataProtect itself.
There are no issues with stability in Veeam Data Platform.
While there are improvements to be made, such as providing support for older systems like IBM iSeries and tandem systems from HP, the solution overall shifts from older methods to modern practices.
There are instances where backups fail on certain applications, which is an area that could be improved.
While Dell Avamar is a good product, the pricing is very high.
The improvement we would like to see is the option to scale Veeam Data up in smaller sections rather than large sections, which requires paying much more.
OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future.
Compared to IBM, Veeam Data Platform is simpler but brings some challenges with automation in backup and Oracle backup configuration.
I find Cohesity DataProtect to be expensive.
I don't currently have detailed knowledge about the pricing, however, it is geared towards enterprise businesses and might be on the higher side.
I believe it is not expensive; it's the regular price.
A reduction of 20% in the current cost would make the solution more attractive to clients.
Veeam Data Platform is more expensive than OpenStack because we pay for it in US dollars, while we pay for OpenStack in Egyptian pounds.
The platform is based on a scale-out architecture with each node having compute, RAM, SSD, and HDD.
Some of the most valuable features of Cohesity DataProtect for me include instant mass restore, anomaly detection, and its ability to handle large data volumes effectively.
The most valuable feature is the instant recovery capability.
The most valuable feature for me is the backup functionality.
The platform is user-friendly, comprehensive, and compatible with numerous market solutions, including virtualization and bare metal servers.
The most important aspect of this platform is data security with immutable data in the storage.
Veeam Data Platform provides me with the most useful features such as application restore, single file restore, backup and replication, and continuous replication.
