Arcserve UDP vs IBM Tivoli CDP for Files comparison

"It allows us to back up all the servers and centrally manage them."

"The most valuable features are the replication to the cloud and the deduplication."

"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is live replication."

"This product is extremely user-friendly and it is capable of performing large-scale archive/backup (five+ years worth). It is easy to store, maintain, and check backups."

"There are many backup options available in this solution. For example, you are able to do backups of servers, email, OST files, and users. This is a complete backup solution which is very good."

"The most valuable feature of Arcserve UDP is the initiative UI and the logs are clear and detailed that are generated when there has been an issue or failure on the user's system. We only have to log onto the client's system to retrieve the information. It is possible to precisely identify the problem's location. The system categorizes and logs every step in a structured manner, selectively displaying only the essential logs. However, to view a comprehensive log, one must access the line machine log and examine the actual client for detailed logging."

"The product's deployment process was straightforward."

"The most valuable feature is the duplication."

"The restoration and infrastructure is extremely reliable."

"It takes much time to verify and consolidate images for backups."

"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."

"I don't know whether the tool has VMware integrations. It would be good to cover this area if it doesn't have those."

"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly. It can be difficult to assign destinations and choose which files and folders we need to back up. There are some aspects that are unclear."

"Backups are very slow and time consuming."

"Based on my experience, whenever we need support, there are difficulties with communication when trying to resolve the issue."

"The solution can improve by allowing older versions to support the latest version of the OS."

"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."

"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."

"In comparison to other vendors, it is a low-cost solution."

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a four or five out of ten."

"The licensing cost is for one year. There are not any hidden costs involved in the pricing model of the solution."

"The solution is expensive."

"The price is based on the number of sockets. We use a four-socket price that includes two servers and the cost is $4,375."

"Pricing is most likely comparable."

"The pricing is moderate."

"The solution is priced well compared to other solutions."

"It's expensive, but it's worth for it due to the volume of critical information within our database. We are currently paying about $22,000 per year."
