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.
SunilPanigrahi - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable solution with good duplication capabilities and fair pricing
The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement.  I've been using the solution for five years. The solution is quite stable. We haven't had any problems over the past five years of use. Scalability is fine. We keep adding different…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The most valuable features are the ease of administration and the ease of configuration."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
"The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."
"Veritas is loaded with features because the appliance is ready to integrate with the cloud in cases where the customers have a hybrid or cloud environment."
"It's very comprehensive. It's one of the first brands to appear in its field."
"Some of the tool's best features include an enhanced dashboard and strong security features compared to native Veritas. Our environment is entirely automated."
"The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
 

Cons

"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"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 product needs to improve its support."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job."
"The technical team wasn't very helpful."
"Technical support can be improved."
"Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas."
"The tool can be improved in terms of maintainability and flexibility, especially as companies grow larger. In these aspects, I feel Veeam is better for cloud and operational purposes."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"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 price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"The program is quite expensive."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
