We work in a cloud environment in the health insurance industry as a medium-sized business. We're pretty happy with Veritas CloudPoint in terms of how we've used it on-premises over the years. Although we haven't really leveraged some cyber event recovery tools available in the new version yet, I think it's more about Cohesity or Veritas reaching out to customers to help them understand what tools are available to them. I would recommend Veritas CloudPoint to others because if you have limited teams, it's a huge benefit to bring in a tool that allows you to start backing up your cloud environment without the need for extensive training on a new tool. I would rate Veritas CloudPoint a ten because it's done everything it says it'll do, and we've really not had many problems with it.
We sell Veritas to some of our clients. There are some differences between Veritas NetBackup and Veritas CloudPoint. In CloudPoint, for example, now they're integrated with NetBackup itself. That is in the 9.1 version. There is not much difference in that. With NetBackup, I can take a VM-level backup and file-level backup. Similarly, in CloudPoint, you can take a volume-level backup. Currently, there is no file-level backup, or something similar, in the cloud, although I'm not sure about that. In NetBackup, you can have granularity, whereas, in CloudPoint, you can take volume-level backup, or the virtual machine, or the instance-level backup. I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've mostly been happy with the product's capabilities. I would recommend the solution, however, those that take it on should have some knowledge of the solution and understand the prerequisites. It will make it easier to implement. Make sure to go over documentation or seek out information instead of going in blind.
Make sure that they test the encryption. If they want to replicate the EBS volumes between two regions, then they should understand the encryption if they want to encrypt the replicated volumes. I would rate Veritas CloudPoint a nine out of ten.
Cloud Backup solutions provide businesses with reliable data storage and protection by enabling automated, secure backups over the internet. These solutions ensure critical data is safe from data loss or corruption. Cloud Backup solutions offer robust data protection by storing copies of data on remote servers. This approach reduces the risk of data loss due to hardware failure, theft, or natural disasters. Solutions vary, but most provide encryption to safeguard data from unauthorized...
