Andrea Zanonepoma

Engineer at a renewables & environment company with 51-200 employees

Has reduced downtime by enabling fast recovery after ransomware incidents

The facility to use Datto SIRIS is a function that I prefer. The user interface of Datto SIRIS is very simple and very user-friendly. The restore is very fast. The alerts that arrive in my email are very complete. Reporting in Datto SIRIS is very efficient. The reporting via email from Datto SIRIS for me, my customer, and my team shows that every single backup is okay or if there is a problem because the snapshot for the server is broken or another problem that I can address systematically. Since I started using Datto SIRIS, the time to recover data or servers has improved significantly; before, restoring a file or server was very long with the normal backup system. Datto reduced the time much more when I needed to recover a file or a machine. The cost for Datto SIRIS is very important. Using Datto SIRIS notably reduces time and introduces high-level security. Datto SIRIS positively impacts my organization by reducing downtime for the restore. The restore with Datto SIRIS is very fast compared to other solutions that I know.

Easy to work and offers features for tape backups, disk backups, and whatever you want

NovaStor NovaBACKUP is still working on new features because they listen to the customers and integrate their needs into new versions. You can see they make progress with each new version. They are much faster than IBM, where you sometimes have to wait years for new features. It is very quick and fast. NovaStor have big competitors like Veeam, which is very fast and aggressive. It's good, but it depends on the price. I think NovaStor might be cheaper. They have a direct connection to their developers and sales teams, which makes getting answers very fast. Veeam has a lot of features, like a special reporting tool. However, I've heard from some customers that Veeam wasn't always the right decision because it couldn't work with their environment. But Veeam has aggressive marketing, which is why they are probably in first place at the moment, besides Commvault. IBM has lost its competitive edge and is trying to catch up, but it might be too late.
