Overall Satisfaction with BDRSuite

Usability

The suite web interface is very easy and logical to use and configure. The menu system and items make logical sense. It is also nice being able to configure multiple items or products from within one console, like licensing, storage, email notifications, recovery options, and obviously back and retention items.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the Vembu BDRSuite for Office 365, Google Workspace, local Hyper V, local file and folder backups, and offsite replication. Recovery is very robust with several options. The product offerings are very affordable. We have been a customer of Vembu for over 15 years and have been extremely happy. The customer support and technical support are reliable and quick.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Stabile Product
Good pricing structure
Good communication
Great technical support

Cons

Would like more technical support documents
More explanations of fixes applied
Easier installation documentation

Return on Investment

We spend less time checking the status of backups with notifications
The ability to test live data for restores save time
5-year licensing saves money with the discounting

Likelihood to Recommend

While it is hard to be a catch-all backup solution, I think they do a great job with so many variations of products that really give us peace of mind in case recovery is needed. Most of the diverse products we will never use, but I can see other larger companies having the need.
