Overall Satisfaction with Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery
I currently have 2, 8TB backup solutions in my company. One is located at my West branch and replicates all data at that location, the other is at our East location and have them replicate change data overnight. This gives us our own "cloud storage". I am able to recover anything here in the West, and if there is an issue, I can spin up VM's on our VMWare server in the East using the backups on my appliance.
- Easy to use an operate.
- Customer service is Excellent!
- Set and forget device meaning there is little maintenance after deployment.
- Deployment is simple with customer support.
- Setting appliances to backup entire VMware servers should not initially be done, its a waste of space if you have several test servers.
- Spinning up of VM's is not straight forward unless you are a Unitriend's expert.
- Replication between 2 appliances took a while to get correct so old backups were removed.
- The question you always have to ask yourself, how much is your data worth to you? For the cost, this product gives you [peace] of mind knowing if there is an issue, you can [recover] the data quickly.
- So far, this has been an expense because we haven't had an issue where we needed to use it, but it's there, and ready when the time comes.
- This gives us a grandfather backup solution, in-house that can be [run] by someone just starting off in this field.

- Veeam Backup & Replication and Symantec Endpoint Security
Veeam product is far too "clunky" and difficult to manage. Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery provides a much easier solution and gives the customer peace of mind knowing their data is protected. Symantec was built on an older system and not reliable, I went with Unitriend's and replaced both of these products at different companies.
