Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."
"For regular backup and restore solutions, this product is fine."
"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is a fairly stable solution."
"We are very satisfied with the product as a whole—all the backup functions, the data protection functions. We are very satisfied with those, and the product is very simple to use."
"Cohesity customer service is the best that I have ever used. They are extremely fast in responding to cases, fixed all issues, and answered every question in a very timely manner."
"Converged system. It makes much more sense to have the backup server running on the same hardware as the storage for backup and recovery."
"The solution's SQL cloning is great, and its Instant Mount restoration of virtual machines is brilliant."
"The initial setup is easy."
"One of the most valuable features is the restore functionality that they offer."
"Within the system, we have rule-based access control, single sign-on, multifactor authentication, and basic identity and access management features."
"It's stable."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive."
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"The product is still young and is continually improving. There have been a couple of buggy releases in the software that have caused us minor issues, so possibly some better QA before releasing would prove to be useful. We have also been inquiring about new app and functionality via the Marketplace that was teased months back but has yet to come to fruition."
"Cohesity DataProtect can improve in the area of databases. We have had some challenges with both Cohesity and Rubrik being able to effectively back up in a timely manner the SQL Oracle workloads."
"I'd like to be able to pause a backup while it's running and have it resume when I tell it to resume."
"Features I would like to see include a more visible data lifecycle monitoring tab, and an easier to read backup status dashboard."
"Physical RDMs on virtual machines could be a bit easier to configure and plan out."
"We have Oracle databases running on Linux servers in our environment and we have found the Oracle backups were quite complex to setup."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"There is room for improvement in terms of price."
