Unitrends Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Using two of the appliance local backup devices with 3 Tb capacity. these two devices have worked well for a few years. the biggest issue I am having now is that the ability to increase storage in basically non-existent. In my experience, you either pay a rather large fee for new device or pay for a rental unit hardware rental is not my desired format. i have never had enough capacity to make full image backups so I have had to look for another format. I will still continue to use these as a instant short term storage of user data that may need to be restored from a few weeks or months past. i have only had to contact support 4-5 times over the years but the cost of support is rather high from my experience. the push to purchase new SASS or hardware is at even higher premium for a small company.

local backup for short term restores its is working great. For us, the price is prohibitive if i want enough space to do a image of a single server. I did have to push back on a sales person that was calling me monthly, I thought it was very overbearing and pushy. when I did talked to support they were able to understand the issue and resolve it quickly. the devices do run well and i have not had any down time big plus for a backup device.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery for all our backup and disaster recovery needs. We use Unitrends for the whole organization. We backup 9 Windows servers. We also have cloud retention through Unitrends for our mission-critical files and SQL database. Unitrends has been a truly set it and forget it backup solution without near as much interaction needed as previous solutions I have used. Email reports are to the point and don't overload my inbox for each backup, but give me a summary that I can glance at and tell in just a minute if all backups were successful.

Likelihood to Recommend

Unitrends has a friendly interface that allows for seamless, easy restores and easy monitoring. I can restore files in just a few click with options of either in the original location or to a new location. I get daily emails that show the results of the backups and if any have warnings. From my experience, and lack is that it seems difficult to find out how much space a particular backup is taking. Also, I would like to backup just some files on a device and if I select that I get a warning the the device isn't being backup up completely and no obvious way to shut off the warning.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We backup all of our virtual servers and file shares, sending our critical information to their DRaaS.

Likelihood to Recommend

We have a traditional stack and pretty typical needs as a manufacturer. I have used and evaluated everything out there, but the Unitrends solution fits very well and was competitively priced. I would think if it fits us, it could fit anyone like us with a similar stack.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use our Unitrends backup appliance to run nightly backups of all our production servers. These servers run a wide range of services including Hyper-V, Exchange, SQL, and basic file shares. We backup bare metal installs as well as VMs across four branch locations. Our Unitrends backup appliance solves our problem of having safe, reliable backups available in the event of a disaster recovery scenario.

Likelihood to Recommend

If the environment is relatively stable and there isn't a lot of data growth, the Unitrends appliance should be able to handle anything you throw at it. It is very diverse in backing up all kinds of systems. With that being said, if you're in an environment where data growth happens very quickly, you may have issues with scalability. These appliances are sized in specific quantities.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use it for backups and cloud backups across the organization. For us, we have to do end-of-year processes before we can conduct business the following year. This includes creating backups of business-critical databases. We have to keep these for at least 7 years and the Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery cloud is one location where we keep these.

Likelihood to Recommend

We are a pretty small organization, so I believe it will benefit others like ours. We have about 8 servers and 25 desktops being backed up.

I have a habit of using my laptop rough and tough every time. This sometimes leads to hardware damage or data loss and this software helps a lot of time to recover data and to upload backup on the server, which lets the data be safe and lets me use my laptop as I want to.
