Nothing really, everything seems to check all the boxes of what we were looking for Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

file level granularity when performing restorations from tape or disk back to original location. This is sometimes important when working in a windows environment with AD profiles Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would prefer that the logs had more detail in them and is easier to look at. I want to know where exactly something has failed and why especially if its errors related to tapes or drive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ARCserve's ability to provide bare-metal recovery services is key to our disaster recovery policy. With physical medium and cloud-based backup and restore capabilities, we are confident of limited downtime along with access to the most recent data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Although the cloud-to-cloud service is fast the internal server to cloud-based services could be somewhat faster, it seems. Our Internet connection is quite fast, yet the archival process doesn't appear to utilize the bandwidth very efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program works well. It keeps up with all the backups using deduplication and provides a fast way to recover files. This product also works well with tapes and backing up directly to SAN and Network storage media. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a little bit of a learning curve to figuring out the UI, but it just takes some reading, and you will have it down in no time. The support is ok; I had a little trouble a couple of times I contacted them. The licensing scheme can also get very pricey since you have to get individual licenses for all attached devices/servers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was very useful with all of the automation settings. Always hated going to every server to check backups but with this software you can check it from one server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How hard it was to perform updates on the software. Also, the support for the program used to be horrible with wait times, sometimes taking over a day for assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
