Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It's incredibly fast."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"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."
"The RTO and RPO are unparalleled. In the event you do have an issue, you can be back up and running (depending on the size of your infrastructure) within minutes. Your RTO can be 15 minutes and data loss be five minutes. I don't think that's matched by anybody else in the field."
"The journaling is the most valuable aspect of the solution."
"The ability to fully test your entire environment without actually performing a failover is invaluable."
"The time it takes to fail a server over to DR has been great."
"The replication for DR is really good, and the test failover within the application is really solid, along with the ability to manipulate RDMs or remove them."
"Since the log files are continuously transmitted, the granularity of restores is amazing."
"The ability to have a RPO of seconds has enabled us to restore data to just before an incident has occurred, which certainly saves a lot of time and money."
"The continuous data protection is great. We love it because I can see exactly how many seconds behind real-time we are, which is usually under 10 seconds. It keeps things up to date. We love the product."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"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 support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"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."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"It would be helpful if the reports can be generated periodically, on a schedule."
"Migration of complex VMware and Hyper-V solution. Using Zerto to replicate to azure and S3."
"When I have a technical question, it sometimes takes a while for tech support to respond."
"When we are trying to upgrade any virtual machines, we have to stop the virtual machines that have been replicated in Zerto and then upgrade or update to the virtual machines onsite. Instead of having to do it manually, there should be some way of automating that particular function."
"Zerto could add text alerts if there are critical problems and alerts if changes affect our replication."
"The backup functions are in need of improvement."
"I am a little bit worried about how Zerto will work with large volumes of data, such as replication for big data and very large files."
"We wanted to shut down the dev environment to focus on the prod environment. We couldn't find any option in Zerto to do that."
