Room For Improvement

Nasuni struggles with cloud integration, performance, and user experience, needing improvements in data retention, security, and analytics.
NetVault Plus users request enhanced restore accuracy, interface clarity, version compatibility, storage capacity, and seek additional features like MongoDB support.
I would improve Nasuni by addressing the performance issues we sometimes face on the base file share, which must be fixed.
Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
I suggest Nasuni improve their syslog forwarders to support TCP protocol, as it's more secure than UDP, which is plain text and not protected at all.
Infrastructure Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
There is also a need for better security measures, as security is critical to ensure backups are safe and free from malware.
Senior System Engineer at PT. Virtus Technology Indonesia
It fails so many times that it is not production-ready.
System Administrator at DIANA FEA BV
Improvements should come, particularly in compatibility, backup performance, or better troubleshooting.
Manager at Fractalio Data Pvt Ltd
 

Setup Cost

Nasuni offers competitive pricing with flexible cloud compatibility, licensing per terabyte, and cost-effective enterprise solutions.
NetVault Plus pricing is seen as variable, with flexible licensing and mixed satisfaction on costs compared to competitors.
I prefer solutions with lower pricing.

I find Nasuni's pricing to be competitive with other vendors, especially when comparing it with NetApp or EMC.

I cannot say the rate is cheap.

It could be cheaper.

Valuable Features

Nasuni provides scalable cloud-based file management with global file locking, data security, and efficient disaster recovery features.
NetVault Plus provides efficient backup, user-friendly interface, supports major databases, and enhances recovery operations with robust reporting capabilities.
Data protection is enhanced by the fact that Nasuni uses S3 technology to create snapshots every five minutes and enables versioning, so the snapshot is created and I can utilize that snapshot for disaster recovery or restore purposes.

The features I find most valuable in Nasuni are the unlimited snapshots, antivirus capabilities, auditing, and ransomware protection.
Infrastructure Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
Quest NetVault Plus supports a wide range of databases such as MSSQL, MySQL, Oracle, and SAP, offering extensive coverage.
Manager at Fractalio Data Pvt Ltd

Consultant at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Unified cloud file storage has simplified global data management and reduced operational overhead
From an admin perspective, Nasuni has various valuable features. The GUI is very good, upgrading is very easy, and DFS is very easily manageable. Compared with other products, the snapshot feature is beneficial because it creates a snapshot every five minutes, allowing me to provide restores very easily to customers. Data protection is enhanced by the fact that Nasuni uses S3 technology to create snapshots every five minutes and enables versioning, so the snapshot is created and I can utilize that snapshot for disaster recovery or restore purposes. I assess the value of global file locking and caching for reducing latency as good, giving it a five out of five.
Arno Wolthers - PeerSpot reviewer

Reliable multi-platform backups have protected diverse servers and virtual libraries
Quest NetVault can improve in the area of Office 365 backups. Two years ago, I purchased the Office 365 plug-in or leased it for a year, and I have never been able to have a solid backup of Office 365 using Quest NetVault. I have resorted to a different solution specifically for Office 365 backups. It is not that it never works, but it fails so many times that it is not production-ready. On a weekly basis, I encounter problems and have to restart jobs or figure out what is wrong and then run it again. It simply needs to run as all the other Quest NetVault jobs do. If tomorrow there was a brand new Quest NetVault and I had the option to add something to make my life easier, besides improving the Office 365 backup, I would like to see that Quest Co Store products should be a part of Quest NetVault. They work and interact, but I have the impression it should be one solution.
