Backup has protected our organization-wide email data and supports fast malicious deletion recovery
Some of the best features that Druva Data Security Cloud offers are endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery. Out of endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery, I find the infinitely scalable feature to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work, as it does not have any maintenance windows, which is different in terms of data protection. When it comes to features, I appreciate that Druva Data Security Cloud boasts less complexity found in solutions that are not built for the cloud while remaining secure, scalable, and always available, without requiring a maintenance window. Druva maintains the data protection solution, not the customer, and the platform is always up to date with the latest features, which makes it very scalable, as new capacity can be added to subscription on the fly without changes to the backup setting and without needing to purchase and install new appliances or software. The impact of Druva Data Security Cloud on my organization is significant, as it ensures users' data is backed up with snapshots and is very secure on the cloud. I benefit from prompt and clear assistance from Druva support, and the ease of access into the web portal provides a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first. Specific outcomes I have seen with Druva Data Security Cloud include peace of mind knowing our users' Office 365 data is backed up and very secure, along with improved security, additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items, and a means for remedial action after a malicious incident that deletes or encrypts users' data.

Simplifies backup, restore, and clone management across disparate applications and infrastructures
It's a simple solution to use. It's simple to configure everything that you need — configure your backups. It gives you an option to backup to the cloud or backup to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage. For example, if a customer is running on Azure NetApp files or on something cloud-based that they want to back up, they have the option of bringing their own licensing and cloud controls and NetApp will give them the storage to back up for as long as they want. When deleting backups, the controls are very intuitive so not just anyone can delete the backups, only the administrator is able to do that. Backing up and restoring is simple. It's easy. It's one click of a button. It's quite good, I like it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."
"I would assess Druva's compliance and governance capabilities in meeting industry regulations as fantastic, and I think they are doing fantastically well."
"From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud."
"Druva Data Security Cloud has positively impacted our organization by simplifying backup management, consolidating protection of endpoints and cloud workloads, allowing for faster recovery from accidental deletions and device failures, reducing operational overhead, and improving security and compliance through immutable backups and centralized policy management."
"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."
"Druva Data Security Cloud is a completely plug-and-play product; you do not need to have a server, you just need to install the agents and deploy it to the end-users, and I would say ease of deployment is a major advantage."
"As a partner and consultant of Druva, the biggest advantage of Druva Data Security Cloud is that it is SaaS-based."
"Druva Data Security Cloud is a great platform that helps to simplify backup management across Microsoft 365, endpoints, and AWS, with very easy deployment that enhances compliance and legal hold, enables end-users to help themselves, reduces administrative workload, and saves time."
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable features are the support for both NAS and NFS."
"It's a user-friendly solution."
"NetApp SaaS Backup is a good product that serves multiple purposes."
"It gives you an option to back up to the cloud or back up to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage."
"NetApp SaaS Backup is a good solution and I recommend it."
"Over the time that we have used it, NetApp SaaS was a good solution and it performed well."
"I would recommend it because it makes it simple to manage backups from Office 365."
 

Cons

"I think the best improvement Druva could make is better training for customers and partners, as their on-ground support from a technology point of view is much better with Veeam and Commvault than with Druva."
"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."
"Druva Data Security Cloud can be improved in multiple ways, such as more customizable reporting for compliance needs and faster restoration for large data files, particularly in large enterprise environments where speed is crucial."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"When considering how Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved, I would suggest several enhancements."
"If a customer is using legacy infrastructure, such as in-house servers or in-house data centers, that is where Druva Data Security Cloud does not perform well as a backup solution."
"I believe Druva Data Security Cloud could be improved as the user interface could be a little more clear, the SSO setup was a little confusing, and the ticket creation procedure could be simpler."
"Druva Data Security Cloud is not the most advanced product on the market. There are many others: Rubrik is there, and Veeam is very advanced and supports many products that Druva does not yet support."
"The features need to be updated to support the latest hardware, as it changes every year."
"There are still a few things on SharePoint that they need to correct in terms of how they backup and restore."
"I would like to see the graphical user interface improved to include all of the functionality because there are some things that you need to use the command-line interface for."
"There are several things that cannot be backed up as a full system, but rather only as a shared file. It isn't compatible with all applications and databases."
"Better integration with third-party databases and applications is needed."
"For newcomers or people who have less experience, it's a complex solution that could be simplified somewhat."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is more or less the same as what we'd get from Veeam on Office 365, so it's fine."
"My understanding of the costs is that the price is fair, and not too expensive."
"The licensing was based on a three-year subscription and the price is good compared so some other vendors."
