Druva Data Resiliency Cloud vs. Skybox Security

Druva Data Resiliency Cloud is excellent for managing especially Cloud Apps, Legal Holds and other Compliance-related functionalities. It also does an excellent job of making sure that the entire backup goes on the cloud without needing any local servers or contingencies. It also provides protection in cases of Ransomware and any similar threats to the backup landscape.

For any customer that has a complex network environment spanning globally, skybox helps manage firewall policy compliance for many vendors quite easy. It has a variety of security and network vendors that it is compatible with in its database.

• Customer onboarding was fantastic. We were assigned dedicated resources that helped us integrate inSync to our needs, including profile creation and application deployment.
• Support has been knowledgeable, competent, and motivated to assist us.
• Pricing is competitive with other solutions, possibly even better.

• Skybox manages compliance for firewalls better than we have seen with other tools.
• Skybox integrates into standard change management tools so change control can flow through Skybox and assist with all decisions to implement a change.
• The Skybox network map is more detailed than other management tools showing us paths other tools didn't find.

• Support. Not that the support was bad, but I had a situation where it was "try this" "try that". The support rep was great, I just wish things would have moved quicker.
• When I first started using it, there where a lot of updates going on, so I would learn one thing, the documentation would say something else, and the UI was different. I haven't experienced that since though.
• Credential store - not a huge fan of that.

Incentivized

• User experience. On the first approach, it's not the simplest tool that I have ever used.
• Web-based console. In my honest opinion it's very important [to have] this type of functionality to extend the use of Skybox.
• Too many updates of the product.

The product was easy to deploy and has been easy to manage. The current pricing model is also acceptable. With all of this combined, it just makes sense to renew our subscription to the product. The only thing that may change this is if there is a product or service that we need that either they do not function with or if they do not offer

I'm a sucker for software that does exactly what it says it will do, especially if said task is carried out with a minimum of fuss. Initial setup time for Druva Phoenix was minimal, job creation a cinch and monitoring of successful and unsuccessful backups as easy as you like. What's not to love about that?

Incentivized

It is user friendly and quite easy to use. It centralizes all info in one portal and generates good reports to help you visualize and assess your change management decision

Like any service, there are scheduled maintenance periods and unscheduled outages, however outages have been very limited and fortunately have not had any impact on our environment.

Page response in the admin center is acceptable- rarely are we waiting for data to load. Backup speeds seem fine, and restore speeds are OK considering it's likely pulling data from cold storage. It often takes 30-60 seconds for the restore to begin transferring files, but speeds are acceptable thereafter

I have dealt with MANY support teams in my role as system administer for: Office 365, Concur, Replicon, Webex, Adobe, Dataprise, and MozyPro. The support team at Druva, is far and above the best! They respond quickly, they take action when needed, and they are easy to understand (meaning they don't talk too Techy, to my users). I am very please with all the support we receive from this team!

Incentivized

The support team needs to be improved especially in their response and awareness about recent bugs in their solution. For example, sometimes they are not aware about how to integrate specific vendors like Microsoft Azure and they still don't have answers to it until now.

They are very well knowledgeable. They conducted a two day training session and they explained each and everything.

As an administrator, if I had a user who needed additional training, it was available. As an Administrator, the product was so easy I didn't need it

Implementation from cloud ranger to Druva Data Resiliency Cloud platform was a seamless integration experience to upgrade the policies and license for continual backup/recovery support. This may be one of the best "set it and forget it" apps for backup solutions, that also allow notifications for failures etc...

We didn't want to run a dedicated server and storage which led us to meet with Druva. Once we met the account team and supporting engineers we were won over with their professionalism and willingness to see any issue to resolution.

CloudGuard Dome9 does not have a suite for an on-premise datacenter.

Druva Data Resiliency Cloud is built on a cloud-native architecture, which allows it to scale easily and handle large amounts of data. This is one of the reasons why I rate Druva Data Cloud a 10 on scalability. The cloud-native architecture enables the product to automatically scale resources up or down based on the data protection needs of the organization. This means that the product can handle a high volume of data without requiring additional hardware or manual intervention, making it a highly scalable solution. Additionally, Druva Data Resiliency Cloud also supports a wide range of platforms and environments, which allows organizations to protect their data across a diverse set of environments, providing more scalability options.

• In economic terms, Druva is sufficiently economical that recovering the investment made at the time of purchase is easy to achieve.
• Prior to using Druva, we did not have the capacity to grow our ROI to a point where we could begin to see short-term gains.

Incentivized

• Overall ROI is good as this product is an augmentation for us but we already have a mature security program with an experienced security team so the ROI is high.
