Overall Satisfaction with Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery

We just use it for backing up our data for 911. We replicated the data to another appliance at another location in the county. Other departments that are part of Houston County use the appliances as well but we don't share resources. The use of the appliance(s) addresses the need to backup critical data that we use for dispatching 911 calls.
  • Backup Copy
  • Image backups
  • Data File backups
  • The UI is hard to use no very intuitive.
  • Flow of operations is confusing.
  • Getting to some parts of the system seem very confusing.
  • The ROI is not that high. The appliance is very expensive.
  • We just renewed mostly because we already had the device and it was working well.
  • It performs well and in recent years has been very reliable.

Yes

Yes

Would you buy Unitrends again?

Yes

Datto was very expensive and I only looked at it because we use Datto as our remote monitoring and management agent
Very well suited for most environments. I don't see where it would not be well suited for a backup solution.
