Cons

No option for on premises hardware BDR. This means recovery restorations rely on self-supplied hardware performance.
License per machine can get costly if large number of computers or servers.

Errors on backup jobs could be more clearly explained. As the administrator of the device for my company, I often don't know what caused an error, and can't tell from the error information what happened or caused the error.
Updates of the devices should have an automatic option. It takes to much time to do an update to the devices if updates haven't been maintained.
Shutdown and restarting the device should be available from the main UI screen to eliminate some time when doing updates or if you're doing some maintenance on the device.

The cost savings we realized from moving to this software has us hooked - it does everything we need it to do on a very high level (virtualization, for example) and is very low cost for us.

We have grown very attached to the Unitrends appliances and their use for recovery and other file restoration needs as well as data archival, data replication to other appliance and data migration to other servers or long term storage requirements. The appliances work well and the support for them is very good as well.

Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery 8.6

Based on 14 answers

I have never used such an easy product that is stable and scalable like Unitrends. I have been running backups for MANY years. On premise, tape, disk, cloud, you name it. Unitrends is very flexible, stable and has incredible reporting features. It's nice when management requests a report and it takes you 5 minutes to run it and dump it to PDF. How can you beat that?

The Unitrends employees involved in the installation were very friendly and knowledgeable. A certain degree of hiccups can be expected during any installation but never shook my confidence because of the friendly and knowledgeable team that was assigned to my project.

Alternatives Considered

We went with Acronis Backup Cloud because we're able to backup all platforms, not just PCs. And the price was good when it comes to all those options. It's a hard sell to clients, but when explained properly, the understand the cost of a good solution. It's like having good car insurance.

Positive - for what were paying for one SQL server to be a live backup, we were able to shut that down and protect our entire organization using Unitrends. We were able to get rid of the off-site storage costs as well as the manual process of changing out tapes.
The reporting and the BCDR tool for creating a disaster recovery plan is great. A lot of times we need to share our DR/BC plan for RFP's or when working with other businesses, and having a web portal to create and edit the plan and then just print to PDF, makes this whole process a breeze.
