Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable features are the Self-Service, and the ability to search the data.""In terms of stability, I've found it to be very stable. I've walked into the server room when it was at 60 degrees Celcius, and it was still running fine.""The solution is highly stable.""The command-line interface is good.""The cataloging is the best feature. It takes millions of frames for the backup. It's incremental, so it takes less time to complete.""Overall IBM ProtectTIER is a great solution. It is easy to use."

More IBM ProtectTIER Pros →

"Enables multiple hosts access to the virtual machines by providing for moving VMs due to maintenance or host failure.""Efficiency of data management (Tier-X tiering, and NoDup inline dedupliclation and compression) provide for quick response time (+150k IOPS) during regular usage.""In the event of a deletion, corruption, or ransomware, I am never going to lose more than one second of changes.""Flexibility and frequency of restore points: allow me to economically customize the range of time for data restoration, according to the varying sensitivities of each type of data.""The Reduxio box has improved our resiliency and management overhead.""The always-on deduplication and compression is also effective and allows us to achieve about 3x savings on space utilization.""The machine installed without difficulty.""By using the BackDating option we can restore volumes based on time. It also reduces volumes and maintenance time."

Cons
"IBM ProtectTIER could improve by being more user-friendly.""Setting up the system to work with legacy equipment is a bit complex at times.""I would like the possibility to back up the infrastructure and then replicate it upon on restart, without having to orchestrate the starting of the VM.""The backup for a large amount of data is slow.""The configuration wizards are still complex and hard to navigate. These should be easier to manage."

More IBM ProtectTIER Cons →

"A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal.""Would love to have role-based access and an active directory integration.""Needs some hooks into cloud storage for backup. Also they should update the system to use additional secondary storage as a resource.""If Reduxio could manage multiple Reduxio systems within the same dashboard, or manage them as a single mode, it be very, very helpful for us.""Maybe it should come in stainless steel, just like its DeLorean time machine predecessor.""It would be nice feature if the GUI had an option to export the current unit configuration to a file or an email recipient. In case of a disaster, this way it would be quicker to get a replacement unit up and running again.""I would love an iPhone app to monitor my system from outside the firewall.""I am waiting on a feature set in the new version which should allow me to replicate between Reduxio iSCSI SANs for disaster recovery and also to 3rd party iSCSI SANs which are cheaper for an archive or DR target."
