"Cohesity DataProtect is a reliable solution for performing backups within a suitable timeframe, and its forever incremental model is particularly effective for the customer's needs. Additionally, the solution handles instant recovery and file-level recovery from a VMware image backup seamlessly."
"Its flexibility is the most valuable. Being a cloud version, it has more flexibility, and it allows me to incorporate different workloads and consolidate all the data in one place. It has good high availability, and it is also easy to maintain."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Cohesity has very simple reports to help you stay in the know of which servers are being backed up or not."
"The ease of use and the GUI have really been most valuable to us. Configuring the system to do what we need is simple and straight forward and a lot of guesswork has been removed. One of my favorite features with Cohesity is Kroll for Exchange item-level recovery. The software is simple to use and fast."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"The implementation and training are all done through the sales engineer, which provides for a seamless and great experience when it comes to starting with a new vendor."
"I like the performance of the restore feature."
"Add the ability to delete View Boxes and External Targets in the GUI."
"I would like to see Microsoft Exchange DAG supported as soon as possible."
"In terms of what could be improved, it just needs some maturity."
"It would be great to add SQL Object Level restore, so user objects, tables, etc. can be restored without having to restore the entire DB."
"Quality testing of upgrades should be somewhat improved."
"There is limited support for legacy systems, which is something that could be improved."
"Many of the reports are basic, at most, and at times we had to open a support ticket to help find or develop a report for our needs."
"The one area where we would like to see additional improvements is with reporting. There are very granular reports from each grid. There are also some built-in reports within Helios (SAS Management Console) that offers basic reporting. However, for complex, large-enterprise environments, a more robust reporting engine that supports detailed audit reporting and enhanced ad hoc reports would be welcome."
"We have to do a lot of POC to show why ExaGrid is good."
