Featured Reviews

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.

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 find the ease of use valuable."
"Nutanix has its own backup system known as HYCU, as well as its own virtual server."
"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."
"I like the autofill-over feature and the simplicity of the solution."
"Our primary use case for the solution is to back up our devices and equipment for employees and some equipment in airport software."
"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."
"Nutanix, in my opinion, will eventually take over."
"Veritas NetBackup's pricing is a bit steep when compared to other tools, it is very costly, but service-wise and overall, the Veritas NetBackup is a good product."
"I have seen value delivered to customers I sold Veritas NetBackup to because they now have a reliable solution that they can always depend on, allowing CIOs to sleep better."
"Veritas NetBackup technical support is good and responsive."
"Veritas is the market leader in enterprise backup software, with all the required features that are available in the market, always staying one step ahead, and deployment is easy as they have all the documentation required."
"With our critical data protected by Veritas NetBackup, we feel confident knowing that we can reliably recover the data in case of incidental data loss or disaster."
"This is a complete solution, everything is under one console."
"I would give NetBackup a 10 out of 10 for scalability."
"Great deduplication feature."
 

Cons

"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 price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"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."
"It could be cheaper."
"The pricing could be improved. It's an expensive solution."
"The solution's setup process should be simplified."
"Nutanix is not secure enough, and it needs to be more resilient."
"Planning for the implementation takes a lot of time."
"While technical support is good, it takes them a long time, for reasons unbeknownst to me, to resolve issues, which is why we involve their partners."
"Technical support is somewhat slow and is in need of improvement."
"The only pain point we have with this solution is the cost. It's very expensive. In fact, it's so expensive we are looking for other platforms. We want to move away from it in order to save our organization costs."
"Improvements can be made to the service by providing better and more competitive ratios on data backups. The functionality for backups is there with Veritas, but I would like to see them optimize and enhance this feature more."
"Extra features come with additional costs."
"Licensing was very expensive and did not scale well if needed to move between license models."
"Netbackup can backup MySQL via Oracle policy, to be honest, this is not completely native support and this method has a few limitations. In fact, you can buy from Veritas (or Zmanda) clients for MySQL or PostgerSQL from Zmanda to backup MySQL or PostgreSQL on Linux."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the pricing a five out of ten because the price is average."
"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."
"While Nutanix Mine is extremely expensive for small businesses, it is a very cost-effective product for enterprise businesses."
"Our primary complaint about this product is that it is too expensive."
"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."
"Licensing fees are charged based on the number of CPU cores."
"The solution is expensive."
"Annual licensing fee."
"I rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten."
"So far I can only say that the license structure could be looked at to be aligned as either capacity-based or traditional."
"Pricing is pretty costly as compared to the other products but worth investing for the long term and high ROI."
