Backup operations have become faster and daily recoveries run smoothly for on‑prem workloads

When compared to other tools, the deduplication in Cohesity DataProtect is very fast, and the restore performance is better than other tools. Global deduplication ensures that only unique data blocks are stored, significantly reducing storage consumption. Cohesity DataProtect's dashboard displays options and errors clearly, making it easy to access and understand how to fix issues. Cohesity DataProtect's ability to start processes automatically without manual selections enhances its reliability. Cohesity DataProtect's architecture ensures that agent installations automatically reflect in the dashboard, allowing for seamless integration into backup jobs. This improves operational efficiency, ensuring backups can be triggered without manual refreshes. Additionally, the user interface is intuitive, and the respect of the N-1 rule during updates helps prevent client-affecting issues.

Unified data has created trusted golden records but complex AI matching still needs clearer control

Reltio Cloud has greatly enhanced our data management, and I acknowledge there are areas where our team continues to face challenges. Specifically, the AI-based matching feature operates like a black box, making it difficult to understand why certain records are matched or not matched accurately. If there could be better visual debugging and clarity regarding why records are matched, it would significantly aid our decision-making process. The technical configuration, particularly regarding data models and rule matching, can be overly complex for business users, hence a more user-friendly approach, with simplified guidelines, would be incredibly beneficial. Additionally, data stewardship can present complexities, and clearer actions can facilitate addressing these challenges. Performance issues can arise with larger data models and numerous data sources impacting system use, hence enhancements in optimization and ready-to-use features for complex configurations are essential. Pricing can also be convoluted; therefore, a clearer cost model would aid users in comprehending the structure. While data lineage has its merits, it is complex to interpret; thus, improved visualization would greatly benefit users. Ultimately, technical complexity emerges as the primary challenge we face, revealing opportunities for improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It works well with backup virtual machines and SQL services we have been using."

"The tool is faster and easier to use than others. The most critical feature for our data protection needs is the accuracy of backups and restores."

"I have found that the speed of restores, especially files and folders, are extremely fast. This bodes well for us, and our end users are always amazed at how fast you can get them their files."

"Its flexibility is the most valuable. Being a cloud version, it has more flexibility, and it allows me to incorporate different workloads and consolidate all the data in one place. It has good high availability, and it is also easy to maintain."

"Converged system. It makes much more sense to have the backup server running on the same hardware as the storage for backup and recovery."

"The restores are easy to do and have made it so that we can incorporate restores into our troubleshooting processes."

"Old backup solution: Full restore of mission critical systems took around one day. Cohesity does this process in under one hour."

"The Cohesity views are valuable to us just because of the speed of the backup and recovery options — Cohesity VM backups are good for us."

More Cohesity DataProtect pros

"The most valuable feature is real-time synchronization. You can see the events as soon as they are posted within a couple of fraction seconds."

"We can store the data and enrich it from multiple sources."

"There are default limitations and considerations. For instance, Reltio can store a maximum of 200 values for a single attribute. If your data exceeds this limit, you can request Reltio support to increase the limit. However, be aware that increasing this limit may impact performance, potentially slowing down data loading times."

"It is very easy to learn. The"

"The most valuable feature of Reltio Cloud is the customization we can make in its functionality."

"The cloud feature is very beneficial, and the scalability performance feature is excellent."

"Reltio Cloud has positively impacted my organization because we were able to promote our data and sell data to our customers."

"It is a scalable product, and the scalability is good. We can configure users."

More Reltio Cloud pros

Cons

"The support is pretty bad."

"We are waiting on the AIX agent to be released."

"For Oracle DBs, we have observed a few bugs. This can be done better."

"We have encountered a few cluster crashes because of indexing on XFS file systems this should be fixed in 6.1.0"

"In terms of what could be improved, their UI requires a manual refresh. It doesn't seem like it updates itself sometimes when you're moving from screens or waiting for a change to take effect, so you have to manually refresh."

"A little more documentation on standard faults would help, as new features are being released quite often."

"The one drawback of this quick innovation is that their units were shipped with outdated firmware, but this was quickly remedied, and they have made operational changes to reduce the likelihood of sending outdated firmware again."

"We have had our share of minor bugs over the past two years and a few bigger ones."

More Cohesity DataProtect cons

"The customer support is adequate, but not exceptional."

"Reltio Cloud can be improved by providing the possibility to connect with other connectors and databases such as Snowflake, Databricks, and eventually with Azure Data Factory."

"Initially, the UI was limited in features."

"The solution's UI could be enhanced, and its record filtering could be expanded."

"What could be improved about Reltio Cloud was minimal."

"The support team is slow to respond when we need assistance with workflow deployments. We must rely on their availability and contact them to receive the required JAR files."

"The download process can be quite slow"

"We need manual data modeling and configuration to tailor the platform to our requirements."

More Reltio Cloud cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing, setup costs, etc. are pretty typical. The initial cost for Cohesity was less than other products the we evaluated. Cohesity's pricing does offer benefits as DR target costs are less than other solutions. You are not charged for DataProtect licensing for target DR data consumption."

"From my last assessment, the pricing for Cohesity DataProtect was reasonable. Compared to its closest competitor, Rubrik, I found Rubrik's pricing to be somewhat high-end. While Rubrik may have more advanced security features than Cohesity DataProtect currently, Cohesity DataProtect is releasing a new solution in the near future that will compete directly with Rubrik."

"The solution's pricing is in the mid-range, where it's neither costly nor cheap."

"I expect the system to probably pay off within the first two years."

"We purchased support from Cohesity to ensure that should we face an issue, we don't have to deal with different service providers."

"Cohesity came in at the best price. Setup was included and done in half a day."

"The solution's pricing is quite high, more so than that of its competitors, Veeam, Veritas and Rubrik."

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. It is cheaper than other backup solutions."
