Cloud-to-Cloud backups.

I've used it for 10 years.

No issues encountered.

It's very good.

It's very good.

It was straightforward.

We did it in-house.

80%.

Always keep an eye on the competitions’ price.

Veeam, which we also use.

Take the training courses to get the most out of it.

Backing up to the cloud

Replaced an ageing tape backup product and reduced administration.

Data encryption due to the speed of restoring multiple files

6 months

Limited issues around configuration and backup client on different platforms

Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software

None encountered.

Very good indeed.

Again, very good technical support

Used a tape solution, cloud backup is easier to manage to and administer.

Complex especially around testing.

Through a vendor with a very high level of expertise.

2-3 years of reduced administration costs.

£2k per month plus £5k setup.

No, this was the market leader and a proven technology.

For large numbers of file restores it is advisable to also have an onsite NAS device for faster restore times.

I use Asigra to deliver backup as a service, DR as a service, and archive as a service across Microsoft and Linux operating systems.

It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature.

I have found the remote virtual DR for recovery feature very useful. The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level.

They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data.

I have experienced no issues with the product's stability.

I have experienced no issues with the product's scalability.

The technical support is knowledgeable and provides good support.

I did not use any solutions before Asigra.

Some expertise was required for the initial setup.

It was implemented using an in-house team. Asigra provides good customer support.

Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services.

I implemented other products like EVault and Veeam before switching to Asigra.

Asigra is a reliable solution with high recovery rates.

Asigra does not require any agents to be installed - it's a much more effective (and less labour-intensive) solution than the agent-based alternatives out there.

It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software. It gives customers peace of mind that their data is in safe hands.

The UI could do with a facelift.

Simplicity, very easy to restore user data. Means that we don't have to request off site tapes to be delivered to the office, can easily access the cloud data and restore most data within minutes.

As above, vastly improved user down time on important data that has been deleted. Tapes could often take hours if not over a day to retrieve, now that issue has been eradicated.

For me it does what it needs to.

2 years.

No issues with deployment.

No issues with stability.

No, have easily scaled up as we've increased the amount of data we now hold.

From the limited contact I've had it's been very good.

Excellent, always at the other end of the phone with a solution to most of the few issues we've had.

Just tape storage with a local firm.

I wasn't involved in this but from the sounds of it it was very simple. Most of our servers are virtualised so we just needed to set them up and our supplier did the rest.

Through a vender, they knew what they were doing and there was very little if any down time.

Symantec cloud was the only other product and it came down to cost, you had to install the client on all the servers which was done with a fee, with Asigra there's no such problem which makes it very cost effective.

Worthwhile, possible the initial setup of the hardware is costly but once you're going the costs are relatively cheap, it's the data costs that can rack up.

Agentless backup, Desktop and laptop backup, BMR.

Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD. Everything is automated and no hassles for the administrator.

Backup of databases like Oracle and SAP.

3 years

No issues with deployment.

No issues with stability.

No issues with scalability.

8/10.

5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech. Need to have more people on board for support which covers all timezones and should be an expert in the product.

We did not have a backup solution in place, ease of management is one key factor to use Asigra.

Since I work on backup and storage for more than 6 years it looked pretty straightforward.

In-house team.

80%.

Don’t recollect since it was handled by the procurement team.

Ease of use and management, one time setup is what all it requires to get going.

Its automation, security, optimisation, simplicity, reliability, very high recovery rates, and ability to protect so many different platforms.

It frees up technical resources, because once it is setup, it just runs.

More integration with leading storage solutions.

Since 2008.

No.

No.

Asigra technical support is outstanding.

No, we selected Asigra from day one.

Setting up our N+1 Asigra infrastructure was straightforward. Provisioning client environments vary according to how well their systems and software are setup.

Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market.

EVault, Veeam, and Dell EMC.

Try it in a proof of concept.

One product that can back up almost any platform or application. Windows, Mac OS X, Unix, SQL databases, SharePoint, Oracle, Exchange, Android, iOS, and clouds services like Office365 and Salesforce.

You install the client on one computer in the network, and you use this to backup any other servers or applications in your network. You don’t need to install software on the servers that you are backing up.

It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution. It has been on the market a long time and is well developed. All backup data is encrypted, and with the correct configuration only the end user can access their data with the right encryption key.

They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded. However, I haven’t used the ServiceDesk that much.
