Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that.""All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth.""The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate.""Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup.""The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete.""If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple.""One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up.""Druva inSync is very easy to use."

More Druva inSync Pros →

"It is a quick and easy way to organize my backups and to keep track of them.""Unitrends has helped us cut down the time that it takes to restore a server to its original configuration.""Replication to Forever Cloud.""Stability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten.""It is very easy to set up and get started. Almost too easy. We racked this device and had it up and running in less than 15 minutes.""It's not easy to scale it.""They have great support.""The ability to diversify jobs within the same server helps break down a large chunk of data into more manageable and concentrated chunks."

Cons
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible.""The speed could be better.""The solution takes a lot of time during restoration.""The product needs to improve its support.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved.""The one area that needs to improve is the pricing.""I would like to see security improved in the next release.""The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."

More Druva inSync Cons →

"I would like to see the real-time replication process improved, and a zero RPO feature added.""Comparing the features and the working pattern, definitely they have to come down on pricing if they want to compete in the market.""Probably the biggest issue I've had is actually paying for the unit, and part of that problem is that they use a third party for the billing.""The solution’s support and onboarding process needs to be improved.""​​Follow up for the DRaaS service setup. I'm still waiting to schedule a DRaaS test after upgrading several months ago.""I would like to see more storage options for the free version.""The ability to run just differentials without pulling the full on your archive.""Network-based storage stability could be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
  • "The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
  • "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."
  • "Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
  • "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."

  • "Make sure you do the homework to size the solution properly. Buy the Enterprise Plus licensing if you can afford it."
  • "When you purchase initially, get into the program which gives replacement hardware for free when you renew your support agreement."
  • "Initial pricing is competitive. Renewal pricing is steep, so make sure to project costs for the lifetime of the appliance(s)."
  • "Talk with the sales guys. They can work with you on the best package."
  • "We found that the cost of Unitrends was about the same as the Dell DR6300. We liked the fact that the Unitrends appliance was all-in-one."
  • "The cost of Unitrends definitely draws you in. The licensing is all included in the appliance, which is a great incentive."
  • "Pricing model constantly changes."
  • "You should be aware how much the monthly costs are to use, what the initial costs for hardware are, and what the options to expand are, if needed."

    Top Answer:We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that.
    Top Answer:The pricing is good. The pricing changed since Commvault Metallic came out. They pitched unlimited backup, and that's the main reason Druva changed their prices. Also, Druva told us to merge our… more »

    Top Answer:The most valuable feature of Unitrends for me is the automated feedback
    Top Answer:Unitrends is an expensive solution. We've negotiated deals where they've given us the $ 62,000 to $ 64,000 appliance for free but charged $ 90,000 for three years of support.
    Top Answer:In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses—I had to hover over to find that information. Figuring out the scripting part wasn't… more »
