Experience with offsite backup enhances data integrity and reduces on-premise reliance
One of the features of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection that customers are looking for is immutability. This is the most important feature. With the cloud, Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is actually in the cloud, which means they have unlimited space to do their backups. They can expand on a need-to-need basis. The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore. Currently, it's automated so you just do a click. You select the feature in a graphical interface, making it easy to use even for a newbie.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Druva inSync's automation has reduced manual intervention in my data management processes."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature, and requiring very little effort for implementation as well as the simplicity of configuration are all very useful."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"The most valuable feature about Druva is that it is 100% based in the cloud, scans the backups for ransomware, has a security element, includes unlimited uploads and downloads in the price, provides a granular approach to backup and restores so that customers can retrieve individual files, is incredibly fast, and dedupes all your data and only charges you for the amount of data that's been deduped as opposed to what it originally sees."
"All the data is well encrypted. In addition, the data is split into pieces so that if an endpoint is attacked or compromised with any kind of ransomware, the compromised machine can be relocated or restored. All the data that was previously backed up can be restored from the cloud. It has a lot of security features. Druva currently offers only the cloud version on AWS. Being a cloud solution, Druva goes by a lot of security compliances and provides a security portfolio. People are very skeptical of the data security in cloud solutions, and Druva has given consideration to that. It has some good geo-location features. If a machine is lost, when the machine is switched on and connected to the internet, that machine can be geo-located and tracked. It also has got the geo-wipeout feature. If someone tries to take out the data from a lost machine, they won't be able to do that. The moment an IT admin comes to know that the machine is no longer with a user, he or she can auto-run the geo-wipeout feature so that the data cannot be read by any third party. Duality replication is a unique thing about this solution. Everybody's data is not backed up if the data is common. Similar data is not backed up from other machines. The data backup also happens very smoothly. The bandwidth choking is very less. When the data is getting backed up, the users do not even get to know. There is no impact even when the users are not using high-speed bandwidth."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
"The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The solution's hardware appliance is very scalable and very useful."
"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."
"It's a good solution. It's pretty stable."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
"I would recommend this solution because it covers the total scope of Office 365."
 

Cons

"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"Auto registration of non-domain machines is missing, as registration is a manual process of creating a key and adding it to the client."
"The support team generally needs to be more proactive with technical and general suggestions."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"I have faced some challenges with these integrations."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching."
"Licensing has been a struggle."
"Technical support can be improved."
"The technical team wasn't very helpful."
"Technical support can be improved."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"The pricing is good."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"I would rate this solution's pricing as five out of five."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
"The program is quite expensive."
