Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The system automatically takes down the nodes one at a time and performs the upgrade and brings the node back up before proceeding to the next. Upgrades can now be done at any time with a high level of confidence."
"The restores are easy to do and have made it so that we can incorporate restores into our troubleshooting processes."
"Cohesity DataProtect is easy to deploy and operate."
"I love the ability to clone a virtual server in only minutes."
"Several features enable us to perform fast recovery, such as instant fast recovery. All our virtual machines protected with the product can be quickly restored to another healthy environment with minimal downtime for our main customers. These features have significantly improved our recovery time objectives."
"Instant volume mount and the SpanFS filesystem itself, which has great dedupe and compression across all of our backups."
"It's completely reliable and easy to restore."
"We like that we can use production data to run intensive reports that would otherwise bog down the production server."
"Any time I have needed anything, from a simple question to someone to be onsite, the customer service has been exceptional."
"The TimeOS support and I/O performance. For instance, recovery of data from any point in time, and the speed of the unit, are incredible compared to other devices we reviewed."
"The BackDating feature which allows us to go back to any point in the past at one second granularity, is an amazing feature and allows us to recover from any mishap to our data – whether it's a malware attack, an application error or a human error. We have never seen this capability in any other storage product."
"We are able to recover to the second, if needed, our data. This greatly improves restore capability, for example, if there is a cryptolocker outbreak or data loss."
"It has a very intuitive interface, it integrates more smoothly with our steps. With a different product from a different manufacturer, there are a lot more steps required to set up a volume, to make it available in VMware and to utilize it there."
"The Reduxio unit is superior in its ability to recover from any second."
"In terms of ease of use, the GUI is quite amazing and seems to be taken from a computer game. Literally within 30 minutes, we had learned almost everything there is on the management UI and started managing the device."
"The unit has been running at 100% without an issue."
"I like that Cohesity offers the chance to have data on-premises and on the cloud. All the data is automatically sent to the cloud."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"Cohesity DataProtect can improve in the area of databases. We have had some challenges with both Cohesity and Rubrik being able to effectively back up in a timely manner the SQL Oracle workloads."
"I'd like to be able to pause a backup while it's running and have it resume when I tell it to resume."
"We would like it to have more capabilities for different kinds of PaaS or SaaS services in the Azure cloud, such as Azure SQL or Azure Cosmos DB."
"If someone were to change an admin account password, I would like an alert raised for that, which is not available at the moment."
"Features I would like to see include a more visible data lifecycle monitoring tab, and an easier to read backup status dashboard."
"Better documentation is needed because the lack of information has necessitated having our team depend more heavily on Cohesity support."
"I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control."
"t would be helpful to have a mobile app to monitor the storage array remotely."
"The ability to look at data at a file level would be useful, as well as the ability recover at that level. Right now, you can only recover whole volumes."
"the only thing I would say negative about Reduxio is the cabling was a little bit confusing at first, but now that we understand it, it's easy. It was just so different from what we've seen before. That was the only hard part to get used to. The storage array is fully redundant, so there are some cross-connect cables that you have to run, from the A side to the B side, and the B side back to the A side, and we've just never seen anything like that before. But now that I understand the design, it makes complete sense. But initially it was confusing."
"Needs some hooks into cloud storage for backup. Also they should update the system to use additional secondary storage as a resource."
"We had a brief hiccup, a brief outage, during one upgrade process, but it wasn't too extreme."
"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal."
"There is only thing I can think of at the moment, that would be detailed printable reports."
