An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is useful for those who run an infrastructure where there might arise a need to do some transition or want to opt for digital transformation. Everyone who uses the solution, be it a public, private, or whatever type of company. For some of the infrastructures, the…

Efficient data recovery and replication features
There is a big change in Veritas. In the past, we could easily change servers or appliances and continue working by restoring the catalog. We could change servers from Linux to Linux or Linux to Solaris and perform catalog restores to continue working. But with the new version, we are forced to engage Veritas' professional services, which is too expensive. Sometimes, we've received quotes exceeding $100,000 for a catalog migration. This expense was unnecessary in the past. For instance, we used to install a new release of Linux and simply restore the catalog, and the system would function well. But with the latest version, it's no longer feasible. For instance, if we want to migrate from appliance 5030 to 5060 or even just 5050, we are compelled to engage Veritas consultants due to the intricate data manipulation involved. This additional expense is quite expensive. In the past, these devices didn't even exist, and we could easily restore the catalog, resulting in a fully functional system. However, the new version demands expensive expertise for such tasks, which I find unacceptable for our clients.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"I have found it to be the simplest solution to the market. It gives us a complete end to end solution. We are using this solution, Veritas Appliance and another one for access archiving. It is convenient to have all the support from one vendor."
"I like the cross-platform features."
"It is essential. We can't do without it."
"Logs are very easy to read, parse, and use for diagnostics."
"The simulation engine is highly valuable as it allows us to simulate what a failure would be like and generate reports."
"I am comfortable with using this product."
"The backup and restoration are 100 percent guaranteed."
"Deduplication is the most valuable feature as it reduces the backup time and provides backup of a single copy of data"
 

Cons

"This solution could be improved with regards to the hosts that integrate with the platform itself. Each of the hosts integrated with the storage and networking only provide one instance of a backup."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It could be cheaper."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"The product is not able to keep up with other competitors in the market."
"The restore tool is not friendly to newcomers."
"Planning for the implementation takes a lot of time."
"The implementation process could be simplified to make it quicker."
"It gets a lot of new features, but improvements in basic functionality are often sacrificed for a shiny new bullet point to put on sales presentations."
"Veritas could simplify the firmware recovery in terms of the deployed. The process shouldn't be dependent on the agents. It should be completely agentless."
"Lacks a reporting feature."
"They need to work on the GUI. It has been the same for the last 10 years."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is affordable or low, and ten is expensive or high, I rate the price as two."
"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."
"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"Veritas NetBackup is quite expensive and licensing costs are fixed."
"This is an affordable solution"
"Price-wise, most of the backup products are similarly priced, and NetBackup is the same."
"The price of Veritas NetBackup is high, it should be reduced."
"Acceptable if you need to implement it for larger environments, e.g. over 1000 clients. For smaller setups it might be too expensive."
"The solution is expensive."
"Licensing was very expensive and did not scale well if needed to move between license models."
"So far I can only say that the license structure could be looked at to be aligned as either capacity-based or traditional."
