Experience with offsite backup enhances data integrity and reduces on-premise reliance
One of the features of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection that customers are looking for is immutability. This is the most important feature. With the cloud, Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is actually in the cloud, which means they have unlimited space to do their backups. They can expand on a need-to-need basis. The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore. Currently, it's automated so you just do a click. You select the feature in a graphical interface, making it easy to use even for a newbie.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The update process is quite efficient. They send admin alerts one day in advance when updating data centers or products."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"We find the product to be very scalable."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The platform's most valuable features include its backup functionality, particularly the snapshot and image backup capabilities."
"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"It provides quick backup recovery."
"I think the most important feature is the ability of SaaS Backup to cover all modules proposed by Office 365, because competing solutions don't cover the total scope."
"It excels in performance and delivery but they are quiet on the market."
"The duplication is the solution's most valuable feature."
"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources."
"We're comfortable using this kind of technology. It's user-friendly."
"The solution is quite stable, and we haven't had any problems over the past five years of use."
"It's a good solution. It's pretty stable."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
 

Cons

"There are some compatibility issues that could be improved."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"Technical support needs improvement. They are too slow to respond, and when it comes to backups, it's critical to deal with issues quickly."
"User interface improvements: I think this needs to be done in the navigation path into the UIs, mainly for the reseller interfaces."
"The agent stability needs improvement."
"Advanced backup is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"In the solution, you have the customization option for reports but it is limited and should allow more customizations in terms of how long or when you can do the reports."
"I would like to see more mature XDR and EDR features."
"When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas."
"They should review the cost aspect of the subscription for Veritas Alta SaaS Protection because customers are going for the cheaper storage, which doesn't give those features in terms of dedup ratios."
"Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."
"Other people will prefer this solution because they're used to it. However, from my point of view, you have more breaks, more failures on it than you will with Commvault."
"The tool can be improved in terms of maintainability and flexibility, especially as companies grow larger. In these aspects, I feel Veeam is better for cloud and operational purposes."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The program is quite expensive and I am not impressed by their technical support."
