Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface

It removes the headache and hassle for users. However, there’s a critical issue, especially with endpoint users: any change made will immediately reflect, and another problem is that the backup only retains data for 30 days. Some users change files they might not remember or need to revert after a…

Provides alerts regarding pending jobs, but the storage capacity is very low

I use the solution for backup and recovery. I map the data paths to the network. There is a client agent and a server agent. The client agent is added to the client PC, and the server agent is added to the server PC. We work for the pharma industry. We save the files that need to be converted to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"It has a straightforward installation."

"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."

"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."

"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."

"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."

"Druva inSync is very easy to use."

More Druva inSync pros

"It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us."

"The user interface is good."

"The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes."

"Having the web-based interface is important to us because we can access it from any computer in the network, rather than having it installed and available for use only on a specific one."

"The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration."

"If a job is pending, the solution communicates it to us through emails."

"The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want."

"The interface is very user-friendly."

Cons

"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."

"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."

"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."

"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."

"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."

"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."

"The support team generally needs to be more proactive with technical and general suggestions."

"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."

More Druva inSync cons

"The initial setup is a little complex."

"I would like to see the option of cloud-based management."

"The interface can be improved. It should be more clear what features are available and make them easy to find."

"The storage capacity is very low."

"There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency."

"The product’s SQL backup plugin needs improvement."

"There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily."

"In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault."

More Quest NetVault Plus cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."

"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."

"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."

"The pricing is good."

"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."

"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."

"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."

"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."

More Druva inSync pricing and cost advice

"The price of our 12-month contract is approximately $1,500 AUD ($1,100 USD)."

"When we purchased four licenses, we were given a very good price. However, it is still on the high side when compared to some other vendors."

"The tool is expensive."
