We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has improved our backup and recovery window, because you can have two Reduxio machines linked up, so every block that changes on the primary storage array gets replicated to the secondary storage array. If one side or the other goes bad, you just recover from the other side.""The HTML5 UI is clean, easy to navigate, and very intuitive.""Reduxio delivers a self-contained system with all of the features rolled in and functional.""The support has been so responsive and great, they feel like one of our staff members.""Write latency is averaging way under a millisecond.""Reduxio offers a very simple, elegant user interface (design) to manage it.""It's very intuitive, has a very modern interface. Instead of making the user set up a million parameters for things that the system knows better anyway, they put all the intelligence in the product and made the controls much easier.""Efficiency of data management (Tier-X tiering, and NoDup inline dedupliclation and compression) provide for quick response time (+150k IOPS) during regular usage."

"Replication to Forever Cloud.""Stability-wise, I rate this solution a nine out of ten.""Iinstant recovery (allows a spin-up of your image as a VM on the appliance).""I like the fact that you can recover the VMs inside the appliance. For example, they're basically running this appliance on a Linux-based distribution, and they're spinning off KVM virtual machines inside.""It is an easy system to use. The support, if needed, is always willing to help.""When we talk about a backup point of view, from a backup perspective, it's a good one.""It is very easy to set up and get started. Almost too easy. We racked this device and had it up and running in less than 15 minutes.""It is fairly stable."

Cons
"We had a brief hiccup, a brief outage, during one upgrade process, but it wasn't too extreme.""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.""The only thing that I'd like to see, at some point in time, is having the storage array being able to detect a ransomware attack. When you get hit by a ransomware it rewrites every block in your guest's virtual machine. So there should be a way for them to be able to detect that: "Hey, this is unusual, to see every block of this guest being rewritten all at one time," and then flag that as potential malware or ransomware.""I am waiting for the vSphere Plug-In with individual VM level control.""Needs to be made easier to use with slightly older versions of VMware.""A centralized management would be nice, the ability to manage all cluster in one management portal.""t would be helpful to have a mobile app to monitor the storage array remotely.""The user interface for the web console could be more user-friendly, while it is flashy, how to find functions is not necessarily obvious.​"

More Reduxio [EOL] Cons →

"Techs don't see to be well-versed in troubleshooting issues that arise and tickets stay opened for weeks for resolution.""The solution’s support and onboarding process needs to be improved.""Comparing the features and the working pattern, definitely they have to come down on pricing if they want to compete in the market.""I would like to see the real-time replication process improved, and a zero RPO feature added.""The solution's base operating system needs to be improved.""It would be great to have the job throttle/limit the max number of backups on a single ESXi host.""​​Follow up for the DRaaS service setup. I'm still waiting to schedule a DRaaS test after upgrading several months ago.""Unitrends can be challenging to scale."

  • "Make sure you do the homework to size the solution properly. Buy the Enterprise Plus licensing if you can afford it."

    Top Answer:The most valuable feature of Unitrends for me is the automated feedback
    Top Answer:Unitrends is an expensive solution. We've negotiated deals where they've given us the $ 62,000 to $ 64,000 appliance for free but charged $ 90,000 for three years of support.
    Top Answer:In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses—I had to hover over to find that information. Figuring out the scripting part wasn't… more »

    Overview

    Reduxio's HX550 flash hybrid storage arrays, based on Reduxio's TimeOS storage operating system allow you to recover application data to any second in the past, eliminates most of the complexity associated with managing storage, and provides exceptional performance and efficiency, far exceeding anything available today.

Unitrends leverages high-availability hardware and software engineering, cloud economics, enterprise power with consumer-grade design, and customer-obsessed support to natively provide all-in-one enterprise backup and continuity. The result is a “one throat to choke” set of offerings that allow our customers to focus on their business rather than backup.
