We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I would definitively say that we have been able to make our people more productive by at least 30%.""I found the cost-effectiveness of Druva Phoenix to be its most valuable feature, especially when compared to on-premises backup solutions.""The most valuable features of Druva Phoenix are the simple portal to log in and flexibility.""Druva Phoenix is easy to use and easy to start with.""Once you set it up and you tell it exactly what needs to be backed up, you literally forget about it. It sends you emails and notifications of the current status of the jobs."

"Veritas NetBackup Appliance is a total backup solution. We don't have to buy other applications to do it.""The solution is very stable...The solution is very scalable.""It has been our go-to product for backup.""The product enables me to recover the information of the appliances in the organization.""I have no stability issues to report...The initial setup is quite simple.""The intelligent policies feature is used in order to protect the VMware infrastructure. One of the things that makes a big difference for our company is the usage of these intelligence policies. The system automatically provides extra protection for any VMware server application or service. From a backup administrator's point of view, this is what we call peace of mind. It reduces the workload and therefore reduces resources needed from the company.""The solution has a very easy-to-navigate user interface.""I think the solution is very intuitive, effective, and easy to use."

Cons
"There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix.""Druva Phoenix should include a few reporting features that it doesn't provide currently.""Druva Phoenix is optimized to work with x86 platforms, making it unsuitable for backing up non-x86 architectures like AIX. The solution is primarily designed for physical Linux and Windows systems based on the x86 architecture, as well as virtualized Windows and Linux environments. However, if you have an AIX system, it cannot be deployed in the cloud, and therefore, backing it up in the cloud is not a concern.""They were able to give us a very reasonable price considering we were non-for-profit organizations, however, there is always room for improvement on that cost."

More Druva Phoenix Cons →

"Veritas NetBackup Appliance can improve by having a more direct connection to the cloud. It should have the technology to be able to directly communicate with the cloud.""The configuration can sometimes be tricky during implementation.""The desirability of appliance solutions is dwindling in the marketplace.""We had some problems with the backup of the physical server.""The upgrade process of the solution needs to be improved since it is extremely complicated, especially without the benefit of a support person who can guide one through it.""It could be better integrated with other platforms.""The NetBackup software is based on Red Hat Linux, but we should have multiple software options for that. We should have more OS options. Also, there are too many tools and intermediaries. Everything should be built into an all-in-one solution.""The installation is cumbersome."
