Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.

Pros
"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication.""The standard backup and restore feature is most used.""It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them.""Easy restoration and the solution works quickly.""It's simple to set up.""We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature.""The most valuable feature is the duplication.""The solution has no limitations because it does backup for Linux and Windows."

"The most valuable feature of Veeam Cloud Connect is the server backups, such as the Microsoft Windows server. Additionally, the updates provide useful enterprise functionality.""It's a stable solution.""Replication without network changes.""The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful.""The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data.""One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great.""It hasn't given us any issues so far.""I've found flexibility to the most valuable feature. I also like that it's scalable and that the stability is okay."

Cons
"StorageCraft ShadowProtect can improve by making one console that can control backups of all desktops and servers in one place. Additionally, the recovery process of the backups is very slow and could improve. It's very slow when we went to recover a complete disc but to recover one file is very fast.""The technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS.""The speed of restores should be improved. We have found the speed of large restores rather slow.""I had an issue with Arcserve UDP during the failover and the secondary machine didn't get back online, even though it ran automatically. I faced the issue during a crisis situation. However, I haven't faced such a problem again.""I think that the price could still be a bit cheaper and I do not like that they have been purchased by Arcserve.""Licensing is an area that needs improvement.""The tool doesn't provide cloud integration in India."

More Arcserve UDP Cons →

"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication.""We were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people.""There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features.""We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers.""The solution could improve the stability.""It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is. For instance, in the enterprise version, we can only use one accelerator with the cloud provider. It means if I have my Cloud Connect, I cannot connect another site of mine with another cloud connect and use an accelerator of Veeam. They should change this.""I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases.""Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I do not work with the pricing or licensing issues of the solution for our organization."
  • "We only have the maintenance of three standard UDP licenses. Each license is 50 Euro. There are some additional costs for the storage and software but it has nothing to do with the UDP."
  • "Normally our customers purchase the premium plus license, rather than the standard one, which provides more options."
  • "The price of this product is high and it should be lower."
  • "It is approximately $400 to purchase a virtual service outright."
  • "There is an annual license required for this solution and it is priced well."
  • "Pricing is most likely comparable."
  • "The retail fee is $1300 for a year for one server. Other than that, there is just the cost of your hardware."

  • "I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
  • "The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

    Overview
    Arcserve UDP is a comprehensive solution that empowers even a one-person IT department to protect virtual and physical environments with a high degree of simplicity. It allows you to design and manage your entire data protection strategy with a unified management console, and enables you to scale your data backup coverage as your organization grows with the push of a button.
