Lightweight, easy to install and configure, and it does its job automatically
One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console. Currently, Druva can manage only one Office 365 tenant per console. As a customer, I should be able to manage all Office 365 tenants from a single console. This is one product feature I am looking for.

Reliable with good support but needs a better navigation menu

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"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."
"It's incredibly fast."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"I like all of Veeam's features, but the most important ones are the tape backups and replication. Those are the two options available for us, and it's enough for our needs."
"It is easy to set up initially."
"The solution is quite easy to configure."
"Veeam Backup Replication's snapshotting and cloning are the most valuable features."
"The initial setup for a simple environment is very easy. We just do next, next, next, next for the installation. It can be complicated in a complicated environment. It can be simple for a simple environment. I enjoy installing it. It has a lot of features."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the recuperation of the weaker machines."
"Instant recovery, ease of use, and integrations are some of the valuable features."
"It is a powerful software for communicating with the storage and for redundancy."
 

Cons

"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The speed could be better."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"Multithreading of health check process: This can take too much time to process on large jobs and/or large VMs."
"The Cloud version is not ready, they need maturity and ease of deployment in terms of management."
"OpenStack is something Veeam Data Platform doesn't support, and they haven't indicated that they will support it in the future."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"We would like to have the ability to perform more things on the web interface. The heavy client is still needed to perform advanced tasks."
"They need to focus more on cloud backup."
"The escalation from first, second to third tier is sometimes very long-lasting, but the resolve rate is quite high."
"The web interface could be more visual."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"The product is fairly priced, I would rate its pricing five out of ten."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The price of the solution could improve when comparing it to competitors. The market is very competitive and they should have some discounts or special offers."
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is reasonable compared to IBM."
"The software subscription model can be once a year, or every three years, or every five years."
"I don't have an issue with the price of Veeam Backup Replication."
"Room for improvement is actually more in the way of licensing. The really good and useful features are in the Enterprise plus edition, and that one is really expensive."
"The cost should be adressed."
"It is highly cost-effective when compared to other solutions."
"Our licensing runs for five years, and after that time we do the renewal. There haven't been any further costs beyond our initial licensing plan because our customer is satisfied with the setup that has been configured and the overall backup environment."
