Unitrends Reviews Summary
Author infoRatingReview Summary
Manager, Information Technology at a hospitality company with 201-500 employees5.0Unitrends offers reliable backups, intuitive scheduling, and strong support. Restores always work, and instant recovery is effective. False ransomware alerts occur due to custom scripts, but overall, it's far superior to our previous Veeam setup for peace of mind.
Director Of Information Technology at Creation Technologies Inc.3.5We use Unitrends for backing up our servers and Hyper-V cluster nodes. The backup and instant recovery features are valuable, but their support is costly and occasionally unresponsive. Previously, I've worked with NetBackup Enterprise, Commvault, and Veeam.
Manager, Information Technology at a hospitality company with 201-500 employees4.5I use Unitrends for VMware backups, valuing its automated feedback that saves time. I switched from Veeam due to scripting issues and appreciated Unitrends' hardware. Improvements are needed in the UI clarity and scripting process for better usability.
System Engineer at a recreational facilities/services company with 11-50 employees3.0We use Unitrends for backing up virtual machines and files, appreciating its simple interface and reliability. However, since it's nearing end of life, we're considering switching to alternatives like Veeam for our long-term projects.
IT Manager at Middlesex University Dubai3.5I use Unitrends for real-time synchronization and appreciate its instant power-on feature. However, the UI could be improved, and I suggest adding synchronization and VXLAN support. We started using Unitrends for new DR requirements without switching from another solution.
Service Leader at Entrust Support Services Limited4.5I find Unitrends valuable due to its efficient reporting and UniView features, which save time in monitoring backup completion. However, the base operating system requires improvement. Overall, it enhances backup processes without needing prior solutions.
Systems Engineer specializing in Data Protection at a government with 201-500 employees2.5I appreciated Unitrends for its valuable daily "traffic light" reports and consolidation capabilities. However, frequent stability and scalability issues, coupled with the company's declining enterprise engagement and lack of cloud direction after Kaseya's acquisition, ultimately led me to switch vendors.
IT Director at School District of Bruce5.0I use Unitrends Backup to protect our K-12 servers, appreciating its easy setup, frequent updates, and excellent daily email reports and improved GUI. I wish for a free version with more storage to better protect schools from threats.
Systems Administrator at a tech services company with 11-50 employees4.0I use Unitrends for backup. While tech support is good, I face billing issues due to a third party. Scalability is expensive, requiring new, larger appliances. Some recent skipped backups and updates are also concerns.
Technical Presales Consultant/ Engineer at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees3.0I value Unitrends for its legacy system support, in-appliance VM recovery, and deduplication. However, its appliance-based model causes vendor lock-in and hardware end-of-life issues, hindering scalability. I prefer software-defined solutions for greater flexibility, despite Unitrends' good support.

The solution can be used to back up servers and Hyper-V cluster nodes, but its support is super expensive

An all-in-one enterprise backup solution that supports any operating system, but it can be more scalable.
