Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The initial setup is really straightforward."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward, it's not complex."
"The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"What I like most is it is a professional product. It supports all kinds of technologies, and I consider it one of the best backup products available."
"Disaster recovery primarily involves backup usage. We employ it for both backup and recovery purposes. The backup and recovery processes have been executed multiple times, even restoring data from backups created three to four years ago."
"It is a good solution. It covers most of the applications."
"Veritas NetBackup provides good backup performance, and I can mount the snapshot without an installer."
"The solution offers a lot of really great features that organizations can utilize and take advantage of."
"The solution has been very good over the years at fine-tuning various aspects of the product so that it is continuously made better."
"Includes snapshots and multiple database agents."
"The Dedup and file storage is great."
"I set up a test, deleted the source, and went to fail it back, and it didn't work."
"Sometimes a server will get a bit behind. "
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"The user interface, customer support, and the recovery time for the current customer query could use improvement."
"The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"The licensing costs could be more affordable."
"The flip side about NetBackup is that it is not policy-based."
"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."
"I do not really like NetBackup as it is coming from a mix of other software packages."
"Main area that could be improved is the pricing, to make it more competitive"
"I also think they could improve the reporting. They use a web-based software application OpsCenter for the reporting and I see that they haven't made any changes in years."
"We would like the Java console to be updated."
"The SQL Server backup features are not up to date."
