We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery.""Excellent compression and deduplication with off-site WAN backup included.""This solution is stable.""Valuable features for us include quick recovery, compression, and deduplication.""The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases.""The ability to test the backups without having to manually mount the VHDs after restore allows us to check the integrity of the backups.""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.""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."

Cons
"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement.""The initial set up was complex, and I was not able to do the set up myself.""Stability.""Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on.""It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location.""Basically, how it works is that you have a single local drive, and then you have a cloud backup. It'd be nice if you could rotate the single local backup drive. As of now, you can't.""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.""Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful."
