Offers good time navigation features and we haven't had stability problems in the twelve years we've been using it
The initial setup was supposed to be complex, and a guy from Atempto went to our site and they did it with us together. So, in the end, it was quite clear and straightforward. The deployment took one day. From time to time, we require maintenance. Most things can be done also automatically. We prefer to do some manually like recycling virtual cartridges. Two people are required for maintenance. Two people use it daily. Time Navigator runs daily, for some backups, even more, three, four times a day, for critical stuff. But for intervention, we have two, three per week.
Giovanni Golinelli. - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to use, offers good scalability and responsive support
The deployment depends on the environment. Deploying on VMs is relatively simple. But for most of our customers, we implement physical clusters with at least three configured hosts using the existing model. So, it depends on the setup. Implementing DataProtect itself wasn't particularly challenging. One key requirement for successful DataProtect deployment is proper network configuration. If the network setup isn't right, you won't achieve optimal performance. We have developed a service for some of our customers where they implement an appliance or physical cluster of Cohesity at the customer site. Then, we use cloud clustering to replicate, and even in production, a second copy of the protected data. And in some cases, we have developed some disaster recovery procedures using Cohesity.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The time navigation is the most valuable feature."
"The tool is faster and easier to use than others. The most critical feature for our data protection needs is the accuracy of backups and restores."
"We can run test scripts on production data."
"Cohesity DataProtect is user-friendly and straightforward. The setup process was effortless, and both the backup and restore operations are speedy."
"I love the ability to clone a virtual server in only minutes."
"Instant recovery options are a big benefit for urgent restores, as we don't need to wait for hours or days for a restore to complete before being able to access the files."
"Cohesity is a cost-effective storage designed for secondary or archival data. It also integrates well with a number of other systems, like VMware, Pure Storage, or AWS with its large array of APIs available to the user."
"The solution is stable, with regular updates and patching."
"The support is awesome. They are very fast, competent and friendly."
 

Cons

"They are working on the improvement we're looking for. The web GUI is flash-based and in around one or two months, they will put everything on HTML5."
"The product is still young and is continually improving. There have been a couple of buggy releases in the software that have caused us minor issues, so possibly some better QA before releasing would prove to be useful. We have also been inquiring about new app and functionality via the Marketplace that was teased months back but has yet to come to fruition."
"We would love to see direct compatibility with HPE Simplivity, which we also leverage."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"Better documentation is needed because the lack of information has necessitated having our team depend more heavily on Cohesity support."
"The GUI is in need of improvement."
"There is limited support for legacy systems, which is something that could be improved."
"The error handling could be improved."
"Add the ability to delete View Boxes and External Targets in the GUI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution's pricing is quite high, more so than that of its competitors, Veeam, Veritas and Rubrik."
"We purchased support from Cohesity to ensure that should we face an issue, we don't have to deal with different service providers."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. It is cheaper than other backup solutions."
"Cohesity came in at the best price. Setup was included and done in half a day."
"If SQL is in heavy use at your location, I would highly recommend narrowing your PoC testing to Cohesity and Rubrik. They will be competitive on pricing with each other, so really put them through the paces."
"There is monthly licensing."
"The solution's pricing is in the mid-range, where it's neither costly nor cheap."
"My advice is to always negotiate for better pricing."
