Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost."
"The CDP backup feature is very nice, as it allows you to take backups at high frequencies and with application consistency."
"The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily."
"This solution is stable."
"Reverse Delta is Altaro proprietary backup deduplication technology. With Reverse Delta, the latest version of a file is always made available in its entirety, not as a delta file."
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery."
"Ability to restore to any host."
"We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."
"Before using Nakivo Backup & Replication, all our data backup processes took a long time and did not optimize the disk space reserved for backup. With the introduction of Nakivo Backup & Replication, saving times have been reduced by almost half (thanks to the use of several simultaneous transporters) and the space occupied has also had a very important reduction."
"The price is much lower than competitors that do the same function."
"The solution offers reliable copying and fast recovery."
"We are able to take backups on a regular interval and restore data/VMs as we choose making the process work as advertised."
"The backups, especially of the incremental type, are really quick (ranging from five to 10 to 45 to 50 minutes depending on the size of the VM)."
"Most valuable for DimenXional Cloud is the API provided by Nakivo which allows us to implement the software in all types of solutions."
"Nakivo Backup and Replication's web-based management interface enables intuitive, rapid, and seamless configuration and management of all backup and recovery functionality across the enterprise."
"It is easy-to-use."
"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement."
"Availability of physical server backup would be an added advantage."
"If you look into the performance of a virtual machine and you look to the performance of the physical machine, the correlation between these is totally unclear."
"The initial set up was complex, and I was not able to do the set up myself."
"It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location."
"Stability."
"It would be nice to see a feature that backs up the host so that, in case of a server failure, an entire server could be restored all at once."
"To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time."
"There are some errors requiring support to correct and bugs and glitches should be addressed."
"There are many features we have not had the opportunity to try, such as Tape Backups, Office 365 backups, and many other things."
"I think it is important to work not only in replicating the virtual machines in Amazon AWS, but in other cloud systems."
"An improvement would be to give us more control over the email alerts, with different emails going to different addresses based on a set of rules."
"I would love to see compatibility with KVM Backup."
"It would be helpful to be able to have a custom footprint so that only the required features are installed."
"Implementing more comprehensive data deduplication and compression techniques could optimize storage utilization and reduce backup times, improving overall efficiency."
"While the solution provides mostly what we need, it would be ideal if there were some additional feature capabilities for the API."
