Featured Reviews

Sergio Itikawa - PeerSpot reviewer
Software Solutions Architect at SPEData
Has supported hybrid IT environments effectively and offers strong data protection
With Arcserve UDP, the most valuable feature is to improve persistent data, which I consider important. I use other products too, not only Arcserve UDP, as we use TrueNAS as well. Arcserve UDP improves the precision of data. I have utilized Arcserve UDP's data deduplication feature, and the data deduplication feature helps my storage efficiency significantly. I have used Arcserve UDP's continuous data protection. It is beneficial for operational continuity because we use it constantly and have no objections to Arcserve UDP technology; I think it is very good. Arcserve UDP's integration with multiple operating systems is very good and very efficient. This brings value for me since many of my clients have different operating systems like Windows and Linux; there is no problem. Regarding the deduplication and compression with Arcserve UDP, I think Arcserve UDP is still a solid solution that we primarily use.
Ingvar  Ingason - PeerSpot reviewer
Channel Sales Manager at Arrow Electronics
An affordable product that offers a reasonably good technical support
I rate the product's initial setup phase an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is a difficult setup phase, and ten is an easy setup phase. The product's installation phase took me around two weeks. On average, it usually takes about a week or two to deploy when everything is in place. The solution is deployed on a hybrid cloud from Azure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like the solution; it's working well for us."
"Arcserve UDP provides security to our database and also it takes backup regularly, without human intervention."
"The most valuable feature is the duplication."
"One of the things that I do like about it is that it has a very good deduplication feature."
"The recovery part of the product is very good."
"The ROI is very good because of the speed of the backup, so our IT staff don't waste time doing unnecessary work and can set up and focus on other tasks."
"The solution has no limitations because it does backup for Linux and Windows."
"It's an extraordinary product."
"Nutanix, in my opinion, will eventually take over."
"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"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."
"Nutanix can converge legacy-style rack mount servers, so it is highly scalable."
"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."
"Our primary use case for the solution is to back up our devices and equipment for employees and some equipment in airport software."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
 

Cons

"Licensing can be quite difficult."
"The problem is just reliability. If the promises in the marketing material were realized in real life, it would be the perfect solution, but it's just the reliability issues."
"The technical support of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"A lot of their new technologies are not very good."
"The solution can use a lot of bandwidth when the scheduling is not done, it should auto-schedule itself. For example, if there are 50 users connected in the network at 12 o'clock and the backup is not scheduled. At this time the network offices are going to have performance issues when it is doing a backup. Having a feature to auto-schedule a time when the network is not being used often would be beneficial."
"Every time I change the disc, I have to do a full backup."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"I had an issue with Arcserve UDP during the failover and the secondary machine didn't get back online, even though it ran automatically. I faced the issue during a crisis situation. However, I haven't faced such a problem again."
"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."
"It could be cheaper."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"The pricing could be improved. It's an expensive solution."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"The solution could be cheaper and they should include more education or marketing materials for users to understand how to use the solution."
"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not very expensive, but it is not cheap."
"The price of this product is high and it should be lower."
"Pricing is most likely comparable."
"The price of StorageCraft ShadowProtect is competitive in the market."
"The solution is expensive."
"We only have the maintenance of three standard UDP licenses. Each license is 50 Euro. There are some additional costs for the storage and software but it has nothing to do with the UDP."
"I feel that the product is fairly priced."
"The licensing cost is for one year. There are not any hidden costs involved in the pricing model of the solution."
"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"Nutanix Mine Integrated Backup is fairly priced."
"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."
