- Several hours a week of admin time no longer needed to deal with tapes.
- Many hours a year saved in that the admin no longer has to deal with LTO drives, LTO drive firmware, tape libraries, tape library firmware, a physical server connected to tape library, etc. Retired old legacy NAS devices that in some instances no longer had firmware updates. One system to administer and maintain.
- Piece of mind. We replicate from our onsite cluster to an offsite cluster in the event of a DR event at HQ.

Highly reliable backups and a true partnership with Cohesity
Score 9 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
- The primary benefit for my company has been a dramatic reduction in time spent managing backups for our organization. With our previous solution, my backup admin would have to spend 5-10 hours a week managing and remediating our backup systems. With Cohesity the solution "just works" and has reduced that to 1 hour per week or less.
- The ability to archive our backups to the cloud has reduced the amount of on-premise storage we've had to pay for. This means we are not having to constantly grow our backup clusters as the amount of data we are backing up or retaining has increased.
