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.

Unified backups have protected virtual machines and applications and optimize storage efficiency
Regarding automated disaster recovery, we have not used Veritas NetBackup automated disaster recovery because according to the RFP terms and conditions, we are not supposed to have automated failover or failback, as we are a government entity and cannot violate the rules of the RFP. My feedback about granular recovery in Veritas NetBackup is that we have been doing verifications of the backed-up data to restore from point to point and time to time, focusing on file level or database level. When it comes to integration with cloud services, we have not started because we are a government entity and are not allowed to store any data in the cloud at this time. From security concerns regarding what I would improve about Veritas NetBackup, I think you need to look into this because we found only one encryption option available, which is not that very strong. When I initiate a backup from my laptop or server to the appliance or the tape media using Veritas NetBackup, the encryption channels are not strong, and there are not many options available. Whatever is there is by default and not changeable. We cannot modify any encryption facilities, and security is a big concern nowadays, so you need to look into that. Regarding the functionality part of Veritas NetBackup, I think this encryption feature should be stronger and integrated from point to point, not just at specific levels. When I initiate a backup, all the communication channels involved should be encrypted until it reaches the endpoint, meaning from client to server, server to client, and client device.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use this solution as an integrated backup solution and it is integrated from the backup provider to the Nutanix solution."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the 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."
"We find the ease of use valuable."
"Our primary use case for the solution is to back up our devices and equipment for employees and some equipment in airport software."
"Nutanix, in my opinion, will eventually take over."
"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."
"Veritas released a new feature in version 8 of NetBackup called VRP. It's kind of like replication management from VMware. The great thing about this feature is that Veritas gave it to us for free."
"If you are running on a legacy tape environment NetBackup is best."
"It has been around for so long, and it is very in-depth. It has a solution for everything that you can cover."
"This is a very competitive product because all of the latest features and technology is in there."
"This product is flexible enough to allow for backing up data from physical machines, as well as from your cloud environment."
"The solution is easy and very good."
"I would recommend it to other users due to my thirteen years of experience, as it delivers every time when properly configured and performs well during crises."
"NetBackup is very easy for end-users."
 

Cons

"The price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It could be cheaper."
"The solution could be cheaper and they should include more education or marketing materials for users to understand how to use the solution."
"I would like to see the multi-cloud improve."
"The pricing could be improved. It's an expensive solution."
"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."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"The flip side about NetBackup is that it is not policy-based."
"There have been issues with performance and some features."
"The ability to use different disk appliance brands as Pure Disk (not OST), such as EMC Data Domain ."
"Once the protection plan is created, we cannot pause or resume via the web administration page."
"Lots of features are in need of improvement."
"The implementation process could be simplified to make it quicker."
"The ease of use needs improvement."
"The biggest problem with NetBackup is licensing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"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."
"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."
"The price is fair."
"The price of Veritas NetBackup is high, it should be reduced."
"Pricing is good, under our budget, and flexible."
"When you compare NetBackup's software licensing system with Veeam's, which is simpler and based on instances (or how many physical machines or virtual machines you want to protect), NetBackup isn't that competitive for smaller scale companies. However, if you're running many large workloads, then NetBackup may be the better option."
"Its price is quite reasonable. The cost depends on the depreciation and the volume. It also depends on the infrastructure. If your infrastructure increases, you would need some more licenses."
"If you have a source size of one terabyte then they will charge for a one terabyte license, although what is actually being stored is much less."
"Pricing is expensive, so it could be lower."
"It is an expensive solution."
