Cons
"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.""There is room for improvement in the reporting aspect of Druva Phoenix."

More Druva Phoenix Cons →

"The automation should be simplified or improved.""The improvements should be as per customer requirements.""When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient.""VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage.""It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
