Lightweight, easy to install and configure, and it does its job automatically
One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console. Currently, Druva can manage only one Office 365 tenant per console. As a customer, I should be able to manage all Office 365 tenants from a single console. This is one product feature I am looking for.

"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."
"Features with the most value are Instant VM Recovery, SQL Explorer and Exchange Explorer."
"The ntegration of physical agents with our cloud connect service is positive."
"The solution's best features are its ease of use and replication."

"Veeam Cloud Connect has helped us to reduce the cost of cloud storage for an offsite solution using their archive storage feature."
"The solution is very easy to deploy."
 

Cons

"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."

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

"We would like to have the ability to perform more things on the web interface. The heavy client is still needed to perform advanced tasks."
"I cannot recall coming across any features that were lacking."
"Even though the speed has improved over the years, I think that there are some instances where it still takes a while."
"Limited support for environments other than VMware or Microsoft."
"During the initial setup especially, there's a bit of a learning curve."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"It would be useful if we could integrate our on-premise VM solution with the Azure workload backup from the existing console. This would assist our customers in reducing the cost of hardware."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution.
