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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"Druva inSync is very easy to use."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The solution is stable."
"They provide good technical support and we are satisfied with the support we have received."
"The most valuable feature of Veeam Backup & Replication is the ease of use."
"The tool is good for VMware environments."
"Veeam Data Platform is valuable for its stability and the ability to easily contact support for assistance."
"The technical support services have always been good."
"A quick-working solution that is very user friendly."
"Features with the most value are Instant VM Recovery, SQL Explorer and Exchange Explorer."
 

Cons

"The product needs to improve its support."
"If I could have an accelerator or something to back up the solution on the cloud, that would be helpful. Also, it would be helpful if the accelerator could give me a buffer of a couple of days for any kind of immediate recovery on an offsite."
"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."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"The speed could be better."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"This is an expensive solution."
"The documentation and communication could be better in Veeam Backup Replication."
"Sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments."
"I feel that the product's support team needs improvement."
"One common customer complaint is that Veeam, not just Veeam ONE, has become increasingly complex over time. This means that it is now very feature-rich, which can be challenging for some users to navigate and understand. There is a need for more education on how to use the GUI and all of the available features. Even regular users of Veeam may struggle to utilize the new features, which makes it more challenging for backup administrators to manage their backups. The platform is not becoming simpler, but rather, it is becoming more complicated over time."
"I would like to see a storage application in the next version of the product."
"Regarding managing LQ or Liberty delivery, there was no system initially; it was solely for backing up Vista Disc. I suggested enhancing this option. However, my experience with Dibree was unsatisfactory. I recommended adding Azure for EBMI XPower backup and incorporating SolarWinds for end-of-month risk processes, which were not part of the initial solution."
"The cost needs to be considered."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"The product is fairly priced, I would rate its pricing five out of ten."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"The pricing is good."
"The product is expensive."
"We are on an annual license for Veeam Backup Replication. We could expand or upgrade the license for the Office365 features. Next year we might go to a three-year plan for support on license."
"The price of Veeam Backup & Replication is high and that is why I am choosing an alternative."
"The cost is based on the number of core servers."
"The license cost is per socket, per processor. We can have one license with two processors and we can cover everything inside of the test environment that we have."
"Customers require a perpetual license for the product. However, along with the license, they must also subscribe to the support service for one year or three years under a separate contract."
"I would suggest to others that they buy the full license when purchasing this solution."
"Veeam is more reasonably priced than some competing products."
