"The data protection functionality is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The tool has a lot of features."
"I like the product's restoration cases."
"I like that it's a stable solution and their support is good. I think Microsoft's commercial force is superior."
"Azure Backup is very simple to use and user-friendly."
"This solution allows me to restore either the VM or the data, depending on what is needed."
"With a couple of buttons, we can configure a VM for a backup and use the wall service, the storage wall service, pretty seamlessly."
"The MARS agent makes it easy to use."
"I like that it's a simple system."
"Backups are very slow and time consuming."
"Arcserve UDP is in the middle range of complexity. The interface can be developed a little bit more to be user-friendly."
"We could not go into granular details of retrieving backup information."
"They could work on their marketing approach. I don't see many people leveraging it."
"It should be easier to switch between backup locations. We have multiple data storage locations and sometimes one of those storages need to be replaced. It would be nice if they made it easier to reconfigure the backup configuration."
"The support could be more knowledgeable and faster."
"The only problem with the solution is that when I change the drive capacity, it has to do a full backup. It's a problem when I have five servers to backup. When I only want to change the size of the drive, I have to do a full backup that can take one week."
"The solution can use a lot of bandwidth when the scheduling is not done, it should auto-schedule itself. For example, if there are 50 users connected in the network at 12 o'clock and the backup is not scheduled. At this time the network offices are going to have performance issues when it is doing a backup. Having a feature to auto-schedule a time when the network is not being used often would be beneficial."
"On-prem can be complex to set up but the cloud is simple."
"I would like to see better integration with more products, and more services."
"I would like to see more automation, integration, and security. The price could be better."
"It can be further improved by continuously meeting its compliance requirements."
"There is a limitation of 99 files restores per day which means that we can't complete a huge file restore. We would like Azure to increase the number of the possible file restorations."
"While Azure Backup allows ingress data, the egress data is chargeable, which should be excluded."
"Technical support can be slow to respond at times."
"The compression ratio of the backup data should be improved."
