Overall Satisfaction with Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery
We’ve been working with Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery mainly as our server backup
system and we used it for datastore replication, archive, and instant data recovery
as well. Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery works well with multi-domain controllers, and it helps
to separate the main storage and other critical software and run smoothly in
different servers. A trusted backup system is a must when it comes to financial
data and Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery always delivers good results without fail. Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery virtual appliance helps to back up by running on a completely virtual
environment. Their user interfaces are pretty simple, and it's deduplication
allows us to restore lots of older backups as well.

Pros
- It has fully automated and customizable dashboards that can run with less administrative attention.
- It should be able to run on virtual machines or be deployed as a virtual machine within MS Azure or AWS.
- It's AI-based ransomware detection helps to understand data characteristics and alerts for ransomware attacks.
Cons
- Automated failover and copy data management security are only available with the 'Enterprise Plus' plan.
- More flexible subscription plans would be helpful for small to medium businesses to use their services.
- It feels like data recovery takes a bit longer to process and there wasn't an option to restore them to a different drive.
- Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery disaster recovery-as-a-service gives extra protection with the cloud storage and easy to recover it anytime we want.
- Only the Enterprise and Enterprise Plus plans provide you the advanced security features so as a small to medium business it's not convenient to pay such a big amount for the Enterprise plan.
- System administrators find it easy to use and needs less attention due to its reliability.
- Veeam Backup & Replication, Barracuda Backup and Commvault Complete Backup & Recovery
Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery's artificial intelligence plays a major role in all
the appliances that run a scanning procedure during each and every backup to analyze
the change logs of the files and identify if the backups are infected by
ransomware. Once the threat is detected, alerts will be sent to administrators immediately and all suspicious backups will be flagged with prominent icons to prevent any
attempted data recoveries using those infected files. If we take Veeam Backup & Replication, for example, it requires multiple Windows virtual machines to deploy their final product. However, Unitrends Data Center Backup and Recovery appliances allow users to do the configuration
simply by connecting the appliance to the network and using its user interface to point to the devices, you need to protect.
