(Original )Information
What do you like best about vRanger?

Quest vRanger have come a long way for backuping up virtual environments. We use it to backup our VMware virtual environment. Let me tell you that the product is really focus on virtual backups, and do a great job. I like the fact that you can backup to any disk solution you have and can do a granular recovery with little time to spare. The compression and deduplication helps a lot. We just need a server with local storage or SAN access and thats it. The wizard for creating backup jobs and scheduling is really simple and intuitive. You can also backup physical servers if you are interested. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about vRanger?

Well I think for the most part is that even though you can also backup physical servers, I will better stay with another solution for that purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering vRanger:

vRanger is a great tool for backup virtual environments, but if you are looking for also backup physical serves, you will have to look for another tool for those physical servers. Also I recommend a training. You can learn it by yourself but it will be better to take a training so you can customize it for your needs, and take advantage of the more advanced features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is vRanger solving and how is that benefiting you?

With vRanger we have being backup our VMware virtual environment for over 2 years and we have some situations where we needed to restore and had always work. Also if you need to migrate from old vCenter and clusters installation, you can backup and restore and thats it. no mess. its simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about vRanger?

I have been working with Vranger for over 3 years now and thinks it is a very good and reliable product. I like it mostly for its simple and clean Interface and the fact that it gets the job done quick and easy. There are not too many options to configure and it works very well with our Vsphere Vmware Environment. I haven't tried using the Physical backups at all or the Hyper-V. Restores are usually very quick and easy to setup. I even Restored a Linux Machine Last week. Usually just a few clicks. File level restore is very fast and very useful. Another very good selling point for me is that there are hardly any problems with the jobs and/or configurations and if there are - Customer service is Local (very important) and very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about vRanger?

You need to be careful with the Hot-add feature and the snapshot technology it relies on in general. Before using this Product, it is a very good idea to really understand how VMware works and how Snapshots and Backups can affect a running Server in Production. I also don't like that you cannot do a File Level Restore on a Dynamic Disk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering vRanger:

If you don't need to many options that the Big Vendors offer this product is worth considering. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is vRanger solving and how is that benefiting you?

Performing Daily Incremental backups and Weekly Full backups on about 50 Servers and 75 VDI Machines. I keep this backup on Disk for Quick Restores for a month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about vRanger?

The ease of use and it actually works. The interface makes sense. You don't have to guess where stuff is. When you get errors they are pretty specific and you can find most fixes online. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about vRanger?

I really have not had any major issues so far. Like i said before If i do get errors I can usually find the answer online or call support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is vRanger solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to backup all of our VMs with the ability to restore full VMs and single files. Being able to backup full VM server is great for DR situations. Being able to being a server back online after a crash is great. It really takes no time at all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
