Overall Satisfaction with Bacula Enterprise
The BGW Group of companies rely on Bacula Enterprise to ensure that all company servers are backed up on a daily basis. Our environment is a mixture of physical and virtual machines, running both Windows and Linux operating systems, and hosted across multiple data centres. Over the years we have found Bacula Enterprise to be a very robust and flexible product, which easily adapts to our ongoing changes and needs.
- Central management of all clients and jobs.
- Accommodates various backup strategies.
- Support for multiple platforms and media.
- Some may find the setup intimidating, but it's actually very logical.
- Faster backups has reduced the required backup window.
- Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery, Veeam Backup & Replication and Dell EMC Avamar
We started using Bacula Community Edition back in 2011 and took advantage of Bacula's selective migration plan in 2014 to move to the Enterprise Edition. This move came about after our technical team decided to conduct a formal review of its backup and recovery requirements, both for the present and future. Whilst other backup solutions available at the time (Avamar, Veeam, Commvault) could do the job, none of them could do it as cost effectively as Bacula.
