Overall Satisfaction with Cohesity DataProtect

We use Cohesity to protect physical MS Cluster, Windows Server, Databases like MSSQL, SAP HANA, Linux Hosts, Oracle Databases LPARS on Power Hardware, and Virtual Hyper V Machines. For the moment at two different location where we replicate the data between. We also use it to deliver some Fileservices like nfs an smb It is because we need an alternative to Spectrum Protect.
  • Support is the best i ever see
  • Backup ov VM´s
  • Indexing and search for Data in the Backup Data
  • DB2
  • Nutanix AHV integration
  • M365
  • Backup and Restore
  • File Services (Views)
  • Replication
  • I can not say something about that
IBM is good but it´s old and really big and not easy to manage. And the License fees and so are worth it. Veeam I have a look on and 4 years ago I selected Cohesity because it was easier to manage, dedup was better and it is one hyperconverged infrastructure. Rubrik is or was similar to Cohesity. But they are not so good in Data management on the boxes

Searching in the indexed Backup Data. For example, if you don´t know where the File is located that you want to restore you can easily search for it. Restore of VM´s is very fast. Even if you are restoring the first snapshot or the thousand snapshot that you made. Deduplication and Compression of data are very efficient.
