Druva has used by our organization more than five years. We have been using it for our backup purposes for laptop and mobile devices. It is being used across the whole organization. It address one of our prolonging business issues of data loss due to theft or hard disk failure.
- The first and foremost thing about Druva is user friendliness for both administrators and users.
- Easy deployment and upgrades of clients.
- User is able to recover the data by themselves by using web or client.
- No performance lagging issues when Druva is installed.

No
One time, during a server migration from physical to VM, my server hard disk went to non operational mode where my Druva storage is located. Due to this, the user's backup didn't happen. When I made a request, Druva support people took the remote session and collected the logs and analyzed them. Within hours they came back with a solution and we did the recovery successfully.
- My first choice is user based recovery at any time
- Easy client deployment and upgrade
- Policy configurations are very user friendly
- Roll up to old version in case the new version is having issues
Yes
It is working very good and is very user friendly.
