What do you like best about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

Setup is a breeze. Support is very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

The interface isn't exactly intuitive. They tried to make it super intuitive, but in the process, it's hard to know if you're doing the right things for actually backing all your drives or setting up for a disaster recovery. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct solving and how is that benefiting you?

Basically I'm saving myself from having to manage a backup solution in-house. No more tapes, now I have an off-site storage AND a DR solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

1- The backups go directly to the Arcserve cloud, and no local infrastructure is needed, only an agent needs to be installed on the devices to be backed up.

2- In the Arcserve Cloud, they protect the Datastore with the Sophos Intercept Security product thanks to the alliance made between Sophos and Arcserve.

3- Only the first backup is done fully, the rest are done as infinite incrementals, which saves time in the backup processes.

4- If during the backup process, internet connectivity is lost, the backup also stops, but when the internet is restored, it resumes from the point where it left off and then performs a check to ensure integrity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

1- Arcserve Support has many opportunities for improvement in response time and knowledge.

2- The first full backup takes a long time to complete, the brand's support had to optimize the agents to speed up the process.

3- In connections with low upload bandwidth, the backup is quite slow, so the product is aimed at fast connections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct solving and how is that benefiting you?

1- Support for organizations that do not have a Datacenter or infrastructure to store their backups.

2- Backup directly in the Arcserve cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When my client was in an important presentation with foreign delegates, and suddenly, between meetings, his system got attacked by ransomware.

What do you like best about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

Cloud Direct is an excellent option for easy and secure off site backups and data storage. Product works great and as long as you have good internet has minimal impact on network performance. Cost effective and easy to use. MSP rich features and one console for all customer control makes this product a very useful and profitable software offering in our stack of services. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP Cloud Direct?

Retention policy is built off calendar days and not backup generation count. So if you have a 7 day retention and you skip Sat and Sun on your backup schedule, then you only have 5 generations as the other 2 days count and will delete your generations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
