Cloud backups have strengthened ransomware recovery and now protect critical business data
I see several areas where Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery could be improved. First is the architectural design and configuration, along with operational maturity, as well as security integration. The performance of support can definitely be improved with easier on-call support features for P1 and P2 incidents. Getting quick support from the vendor during major recoveries or disasters would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, improving the strength of ransomware protections, addressing critical gaps in deployments, enforcing backup immutability policies, and making disaster recovery testing routine instead of an ad hoc process are important. Validating that I can quickly recover data should be a priority, and improved runbooks or operational maturity platforms would be beneficial for data recovery from critical incidents.

The solution can be used for DR testing and allows running an infinite number of full backups
When we consider the backup model of other products like Veeam, their incremental backup just adds to their first full backup. With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements. With my cloud version of Veritas System Recovery, I can have a full backup every month, which is not possible with any other vendors. Other vendors will claim that the original copy is strong enough, but the customers have to ensure that bugs won't cause any problems in the future. However, with Veritas System Recovery, you can run a full backup this month and again run a full backup on the first or thirtieth day of the next month.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Overall, I set it up, configured it, deployed it, and walked away from it; it just chugs away happily."
"The program excels at recovering files and folders, both locally and in the cloud, and their team is extremely responsive, which is crucial for service delivery."
"For me, Infrascale had the best package to offer to my customers, including features, pricing, implementation, and support; everything that comprises the total solution."
"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 ease of use is valuable. It is user-friendly. Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution."
"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."
"What I like the most about it is that backups and restores are simple, straightforward, and clean. It does not require six people to get involved in order to do a restore or perform a backup."
"Its Critical Server Insurance feature for protecting physical and virtual servers, including Windows, Linux, VMware, and Hyper-V is mandatory for me and it makes me happy. If I had a backup solution that didn't do that, it would not be a backup solution and would not be any good."
"It has a user-friendly interface and configures and integrates nicely with other products."
"The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion."
"The installation was straightforward."
"You can back up the whole image, not just files and folders, but the image from the server, and you can restore the whole image."
"The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent."
"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup."
"You can back up the whole image."
"Offers good recovery quickly."
 

Cons

"The performance of support can definitely be improved with easier on-call support features for P1 and P2 incidents."
"In terms of overage, or outgrowing capacity with backups, I have an issue."
"I think they could increase security. I would like to see more features for the section on the viruses and maybe another in reference to two-factor authentication."
"Having options to replicate between their data centers, once the data is offsite, would be an improvement that they could make."
"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection."
"They can always make the GUI a little bit nicer, the interface level a bit better. There's always room for improvement."
"The only point of improvement I can think of for Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery is that the restore process could sometimes be easier to do and faster. A file-only restore or directory-only restore can sometimes take quite some time; however, a server restore goes fast."
"I would like to be able to limit the bandwidth in cases, for example, where we are uploading the backup."
"We faced issues with recovery and restoration."
"It needs an easier interface."
"For most organizations these days, their main concern is to protect their database and I think Veritas could make some improvements in that regard."
"The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
"The reliability is sometimes lacking."
"The pricing could be cheaper."
"This solution needs an easier interface that is more comprehensible. Also, sometimes we have issues with restoring images when we initialize the servers."
"Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I appreciate their pricing. We went for this solution for its pricing."
"The pricing is pretty good and competitive with the market. The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others."
"The appliances have different prices because of storage, size, and memory. For example, the older machines support more virtual machines, whereas the new one only supports one virtual machine. As we have purchased the later appliances, they have probably been a little bit more expensive because they have to be good enough to keep the business running if the physical server goes down. We learned our lesson from the one that went down when we tried to run products and it wasn't quick enough."
"Pricing of the product could be improved. It definitely makes it a harder sell. They will usually end up getting close to the price we need, but I have to go through everybody to get the price reduced. Their list pricing is significantly higher than that of other solutions."
"Our licensing fees are billed every four months."
"It is super competitive. It is worth taking a look at it from a licensing and pricing perspective."
"They are incredibly fair and willing to work with their partners to make their pricing work for both partners and the end users."
"You get unlimited clients and buy a bucket of space. In addition to the standard fees there were setup fees."
"My company has to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution. There is no need to pay any additional fees apart from the licensing costs attached to the solution."
