Overall Satisfaction with Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery

I'm actually in the process of installing my 4th appliance over the years. [Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery] handles the backup for 4 schools. The appliance model makes [for an] easy licensing system. Archiving gives me an offsite backup.
  • Archiving to other locations for very little cost.
  • Easy licensing model with appliance (no need license per backup instance).
  • Just works.
  • Maybe offer account rep to look over backup setup (making sure to get [the] most out of product).
  • Free hardware for life with 3-year renewal has been a great program for our institution.

Would you buy Unitrends again?

Their appliance and licensing model fits our institution well.
I love the appliance model as I want another backup that is not attached to my primary SAN. If you have dark fiber, being able to achieve data to other locations gives you a lot more safety.
