Featured Reviews

Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's incredibly fast."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."
"Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup."
"The most valuable feature of Norton 360 has been its robust notification system."
"The solution has good performance."
"Norton 360 offers the best defense compared to other low-priced antivirus solutions. Its most valuable feature is storage and automatic backup. You can restore materials from the tool's cloud backup. It is encrypted with authentication."
"The solution detects viruses very, very fast."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers alerts if I get a spam email."
"The product’s valuable feature is the availability of support services 24/7."
"The product offers all the essential licenses compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and mobile platforms."
"It efficiently scans for threats without causing disruptions, unlike some other antivirus software."
 

Cons

"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The tool should be easily available in the market and should be cheaper."
"There's a need for enhanced security measures."
"The tool's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"I would like to see Norton 360 improve the speed of its cloud backup."
"The product should be improved with more storage. Though included in its price, the tool's auto VPN doesn't work at times."
"The integration with Android devices needs enhancement."
"Norton 360’s features for device optimization could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is good."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"The product is fairly priced, I would rate its pricing five out of ten."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"The tool has a yearly licensing."
"The price is fairly acceptable."
"On a scale of one to ten, if ten is the most expensive and one is the cheapest, I rate the price as nine."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"During procurement, we discovered that acquiring licenses in packages or bundles, such as the one for 20 users, was more cost-effective than individual licenses."
