Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Years ago (20+) we installed a lot of machinery in our plant that required multiple servers to run. We still run on the same setup today. We did virtualized our environment and maintained the same server/software solution. We started using Unitrends after we virtualized about 12 years ago. Data doesn't change much with these servers but occasionally we do have issues and Unitrends has allowed us to quickly roll back a snapshot and keep on trucking.
  • Easy to setup, easy to maintain, easy to change as our needs change. Very flexible to cover all of our backup needs.
  • Ease of use, support response time, ability to backup using VMWare, HyperV, Windows, Linux, and other type of systems. WebUI is logical and simple to understand. Unitrends Forever Cloud is an amazing solution when immutable offsite backups are needed.
  • I love their support cause I can count on them when I am not able to figure an issue. Their software is easy to use and we are able to manage it with no issues 99% of times.
  • Quick, easy to use, great customer support, the communication from the support team has been awesome.

Cons

  • Have to update the appliance hardware about every 3 years.
  • No cons really. We really like this solution a lot.
  • There isn't a lot about Unitrends Recovery Systems that I don't like, in fact, there isn't anything at all!
  • Sometimes when a big update happens, it takes time to figure where the tools are and how to figure it out again.
  • I wish I could could think of one, but at the present time, I can’t.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Easy to understand and use. Reliable backups and restores. Very good and accessible support.
  • Easy to use software whether it is for File restoration or a complete VM. Back-up checks and reporting tools give me detailed information about any possible concerns. The software saves me a lot of time and is well worth a try if you are looking for a new back-up software for your VM's.
  • Simple to use Reasonable Price Reliable Excellent Support

Cons

  • Error messages could be a bit clearer maybe. The support handles them so it's not that important though.
  • Loading big images from olders dates takes some time to load.. coffee time!
  • I don't have any cons that i can think of.
