"We are satisfied with Arcserve UDP. The most important feature that we use and why we choose this product is the RHA feature."

"Azure Backup is easy to configure and restore."
"The product is cost-effective compared to other vendors."
"First of all, you can schedule a backup for the client. You can schedule it as you like. You can also control the bandwidth, so the backup will not utilize. The internet will depend on the bandwidth."
"The deployment process is quite easy in Azure."
"The fact that Azure Backup is integrated is one of its biggest advantages."
"We cannot restore each user's mailbox. Each user's mailbox should be independently restorable. Also, this solution is very slow. If you select all of the servers, it runs for a long time... It needs to be faster. Finally, If anything happens to one server we should be able to switch to another server."
"The initial setup was complex."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"The product is not user-friendly."
"The speed of restores should be improved. We have found the speed of large restores rather slow."
"The time to backup servers that sit in DMZ must be improved."
"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."
"It can be further improved by continuously meeting its compliance requirements."
"The integration with the record database and integration with other applications will be good, especially with the database piece."
"On-prem can be complex to set up but the cloud is simple."
"The length of time it takes to restore is our main source of frustration. It would be beneficial to shorten the time it takes."
"Azure Backup could improve the backup data copies because they are not immutable."
"We have a concern with the backup when were are working with VMs that are running in Barracuda Firewall because it usually fails."
"Azure lacks sufficient solutions for a particular scenario, we may need to resort to using third-party applications. In such cases, these applications can be employed to facilitate backup, replication, and the efficient utilization of internet connectivity and bandwidth. They enable us to effectively manage and transfer data while ensuring optimal utilization of network resources. However, it would be a benefit if we did not have to use third-party applications for these operations."
"Azure Backup's licensing model is very challenging because it doesn't give a clear picture."
