HYCU R-Cloud™ Platform

What do you like best about the product?

HYCU has been an absolute game-changer in the way we manage backups and disaster recovery. After years of dealing with bloated, overly complex backup solutions, HYCU’s native snapshot-based protection finally brought the efficiency, speed, and reliability we needed across our entire environment.

One of HYCU’s biggest strengths is how seamlessly it integrates with platforms like Nutanix, leveraging native snapshots instead of relying on heavy agents or clunky legacy workflows. This not only reduces overhead but also makes backup operations remarkably fast and lightweight. Recovery has become equally streamlined on what used to take hours is now accomplished in minutes with clean, intuitive restore options that don’t require digging through layers of unnecessary menus.

The user experience is another standout feature. HYCU’s intuitive workflows make it incredibly easy to configure policies, manage protection groups, and monitor backup status without needing deep-dive training or certification. Everything is where it should be, and the interface guides you naturally through every step. Even junior team members have found it effortless to navigate.

Backup validation is often ignored or overly complicated in other platforms is refreshingly simple with HYCU. The ability to quickly and easily verify backup integrity gives us the confidence that our data is protected and recoverable when it matters most. No more guessing, no more manual checks, and no more “I hope this works” during a crisis.

Overall, HYCU has significantly streamlined our backup and recovery operations, improved system performance, and given us a level of reliability we simply didn’t have before. For organizations looking for a modern, snapshot-aware, user-friendly backup solution that actually delivers on its promises, HYCU is absolutely the right choice.

What do you like best about the product?

It works natively with Nutanix AHV. Simple to deploy and manage. It just works. If it doesn't, support is very quick to respond and stays with you until you are happy the issue is resolved.

What do you dislike about the product?

Scheduling jobs is only able to be done by days and hours when certain jobs are allowed to run via policies. You cannot set a static time or day when a job runs. When you schedule archives and validation, the entire job with all sub jobs has to complete within your day time window to be considered compliant. The next jobs starts earlier than it did previously so that it can complete before the compliance requirements causing jobs to run earlier and earlier in your scheduling window. Unless you have a window that is every day of every week you will eventually fall out of compliance for jobs here and there.
