We performed a comparison between Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery and Veritas NetBackup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."For this particular client, the solution’s Critical Server Insurance feature that protects physical and virtual servers including Windows, Linux, VMware, and Hyper-V, was a very big factor as well. They have a bunch of physical servers, as well as virtual. The mix is predominantly virtual. They also have some NAS boxes that we back up using Infrascale."
"The overall ease of use and management of the solution using the Infrascale Dashboard is very good. We haven't had any issues. It is easy to learn. Most of our techs who deal with backups are usually up and running with the dashboard within a day or so. They don't have a lot of buried features where you have to dig through things to get to the resolution. It is pretty self-explanatory."
"Given that we are in the hurricane belt, the spin-up of replicated servers in the cloud is among the most valuable features. If our site goes down we can just connect to the cloud appliance, spin up the servers, and we are good to go."
"The overall ease of use and ease of management of the solution using the Infrascale dashboard is excellent. I'd rate it 10 out of 10 because the dashboard is very simple to use. For someone with a technical background, it's a wonderful piece of software to be using in a cloud environment. But if you're not technical, then it might be a problem. It could be confusing for non-technical people. If you don't know what you're doing, you could kind of screw it up. Any human with two brain cells can do it. It's like anything else. So, once you train a human, they're good. Anybody can do it. Anybody with a competent brain can use it and go with a little bit of technical skill. It might be confusing in the beginning, but once you're trained up and you've used it a little bit, like anything else in your life, it'll be easy. They'll come as normal."
"The Infrascale Dashboard is very easy to understand, has a good overview, and gives me access to all my appliances without having to have a local VPN connection to the individual clients. It makes it very easy to find my way around."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to boot locally, as well as in Infrascale's cloud. This means that we can either do on-site failover or failover to their cloud."
"The most valuable feature is disaster recovery, where we have the ability to boot up VMs quickly in a disaster."
"The initial setup was straightforward and we received support from the manufacturer."
"I like NetBackup's accelerator feature. You can take a full backup with incremental speed and integrate it with block tracking."
"Veritas NetBackup Automatic Image Replication and CloudCatalyst features allow me to replicate deduped backup images from one site to a remote site, as well as duplicating deduped images to the Cloud (i.e. AWS S3, etc.)"
"Could be used for both of Physical and Virtual Environments."
"Best feature is its three-tier backup."
"We have an issue with the last version on the latest backup of the solution as it is not compatible with Sybase 16.5."
"The backup and restore functions are very valuable aspects of the product."
"Veritas NetBackup has significantly streamlined our backup and recovery processes by providing a single pane of view across various environments."
"Ease of installing, configuring, upgrading, and troubleshooting."
"I would like to be able to limit the bandwidth in cases, for example, where we are uploading the backup."
"The only thing I would suggest, and I have talked to my manager about it already, is that they should have a direct backup-to-cloud solution. It should be something that does not require me to do an image backup, and then individual file and folder backups, to be able to restore individual files."
"The pricing model that they recently changed to is a little bit complicated, and the biggest area for improvement is a better way of figuring out how to price it."
"They can always make the GUI a little bit nicer, the interface level a bit better. There's always room for improvement."
"I would like to see more features for the section on the viruses and maybe another in reference to two-factor authentication."
"They set me up as a vendor, not as a client. So sometimes I end up in the wrong portal and I'm doing vendor things instead of client things, and I didn't realize that right away. Once I figured it out I just changed my favorites on my desktop to go to the client-side."
"Having options to replicate between their data centers, once the data is offsite, would be an improvement that they could make."
"There is room for improvement by making the interface a little more intuitive when navigating to recover flat files or an old server."
"I think reporting can always be improved."
"In terms of improvement, it's very difficult to make it work with multiple business units. Its security model is too constricted."
"It is not very user-friendly."
"I would like to have support enabled for cloud backups."
"The restore tool is not friendly to newcomers."
"Technical support only gets back to us the following morning."
"Updates were not always consistent."
"The biggest additional features needed are more cloud capabilities and security from ransomware."
