Insider threats have been detected faster and internal data exposure is now controlled
Regarding how Mimecast Insider Risk Management and Data Protection can be improved, sometimes the tool is slightly laggy, wherein it would take some time for us to fetch the related logs from the Mimecast portal, and that of course can be improved. There could also be a graph or a kind of a graph where, if the organization has a smaller number of employees, it is fine, but if it has a large number of employees and different departments, then in that case, Mimecast could give us an AI suggestion upon how to improvise the current security posture, how we stand and where we can go up to in terms of implementing or tweaking the policies. As the organization's size gets bigger, it would also be better if Mimecast could provide some solutions upon how to segregate the users into groups and what groups can have which policies. Those kinds of features can be added. Regarding Mimecast Insider Risk Management and Data Protection's AI capabilities, I think its governance and security could improve as I am not entirely sure how it works. It would be helpful if Mimecast could, as the AI capabilities are in place, maintain a strict governance policy upon the data that is being processed, especially for user personally identifiable information. As insider risk management sometimes also gets into the personal details of the user, organizations might be hesitant; even we are also hesitant to use the AI capabilities. If Mimecast could provide more information about how they store the data and whether the agents are local agents or cloud-hosted agents, that would be of great help for the organizations to consider its AI capabilities while adhering to the compliance needs of a particular organization.

Point-in-time restore capabilities are built into the storage appliance
Our first impression when we were introduced to the product was very good. I still think it's very good. They are truly different. The whole product is based on point-in-time restore capabilities built into their storage appliance, and no one else I know does that. I'd rate it a 10 out of 10 because it does everything that we have asked it to do.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Code42 has excellent customer support."
"Everyone has a backup now."
"The best part of CrashPlan is that it just works; it's a solid, well-written product with great support that gives users a sense of security about the data that keeps the business working."
"Client data recovery is possible without IT interaction for the savvy and medium savvy users, which lessens the load on our IT department."
"Code42 Crashplan has saved us large amounts of time and money."
"Set-and-forget (but email reports are available) backup process."
"In that testing scenario, Mimecast Insider Risk Management and Data Protection shines with how policy enforcement and data protection is implemented."
"Moving to a single endpoint solution greatly reduced our management time and weekly reports keep us on top of any changes or problems."
"After all the evaluations of other alternatives, we chose Reduxio."
"The Reduxio TimeOS has been an amazing solution with far reaching implications."
"The pre-processing dedupe engine they have instead of post-processing."
"Reduxio requires zero upfront setup for backups. I get backups every single second for as long as I want with zero impact to performance."
"Because of its ability to recover data instantly, we made the decision to make Reduxio our primary storage."
"Improves the response of the VMs by having the most used portions on the flashcache."
"With only a few clicks, I can provision or modify storage."
"The unit has been running at 100% without an issue."
 

Cons

"It is complex but Code42 provides a dedicated service engineer to help."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"I would like to see more flexibility on privileges, perhaps create another kind of admin for regions. Also, I would like the ability to access logs without having to be on the actual device or a super-admin."
"My only real criticism with Code42, is that in the last year they have not focused sufficiently on the development of CrashPlan."
"Mimecast Insider Risk Management and Data Protection's customer support was good overall, but sometimes we did not receive timely responses, needing to wait two to three days for updates."
"Sometimes we do encounter vague answers for some of the queries we have, but apart from that, the customer support response has always been very good."
"A con to mention is that Mimecast Insider Risk Management and Data Protection, at times, may not capture everything."
"​Due to recent changes that effectively abandoned an entire segment of their user base, I no longer trust nor can recommend Code42 products."
"The only critique that we have is it needs the ability to have local users added. You have to log in as one built-in admin account. You can't create your own."
"We had a single failure of the device but believe that it was tied to the server losing contact with our NTP server due to DNS issues. As Reduxio is very time-dependent, losing sync made the entire array unstable."
"We had a brief hiccup, a brief outage, during one upgrade process, but it wasn't too extreme."
"I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter."
"I would love to see deeper integration with VMware vSphere/vCenter. Right now, I can edit existing Reduxio datastore sizes in the vSphere web client. Provisioning new datastores that way would be nice."
"Scalability. Reduxio has only one product, they don’t have an option, for now, to expand the storage product."
"Needs to be made easier to use with slightly older versions of VMware."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They were the best solution and surprisingly enough, the cheapest."
"The pricing is reasonable. It's my understanding that the cost is about $7 for unlimited storage in the cloud per server."
"It was expensive. It was more expensive than Eureka, and it was more expensive than Barracuda Backup, but what we got was a full team. They didn't come in and nickel and dime us. They provided the assistance we needed. They didn't say that they need to charge us for something or it is going to take another statement of work. It was all bundled into it... We pay for the software maintenance. It is probably 18% or 20% of the license fee for rev releases."
"It is 100% worth the cost to get and keep the support, especially when setting it up."
"It used to be a good solution for SOHO in particular as it had unlimited storage for a reasonable price. However, their pricing model has changed and they are now primarily targeting enterprise users."
"The licensing is very simple with Reduxio. It is actually one of the attractions, unlike some of the other products. The other product we're using, in some of its incarnations, has extremely complex pricing, with every spindle having an associated license and fees. With Reduxio it's very simple. For the box - the hardware comes in essentially one configuration for the chassis, the unit (and you can buy multiple units and daisy-chain them) - there is no "a-la-carte," so many drives of this kind or that kind, etc. It has a basic hardware configuration. Then, through the software license, they allocate or assign you the right to use the full capacity, or half of it, or a quarter of it. Of course, if you're not using the full capacity but need to, it is a simple phone call to upgrade. It's as simple as it gets."
"The pricing and licensing were favorable.​"
"I think that you are able to buy a minimum capacity, then grow your capacity within the box as you expand your data needs."
"They are very competitive in pricing, so I would definitely recommend Reduxio."
"Only one device is sold. Negotiate the initial storage, but you can start small and move up with ease. Negotiate."
"ROI is how much (time, money, resources) you will save in case of a ransomware attack because you had this box."
"They have very competitive pricing and were able to work within our budget constraints as a public school."
"I think the pricing is good value, because you're not just buying a storage array, you're buying a backup solution and a DR solution and a "time machine" solution, all bundled in one storage array. When we had NetApp storage we had to then go out and buy a copy of Veeam which is a backup solution. With the Reduxio, you still need to do backups but you don't need that software product."
