Review of our Druva inSync Cloud deployment
What do you like best about the product?
Druva is easy to deploy if you use GPO rules or SCCM, we even were able to use Munki for our Mac users. It was fairly easy to lock the installer down to only mass deployment installations using a generated token. We used the cloud version and so didn't have to worry about setting up onsite storage even with users who had several GB of data we didn't need to restrict what could be backed up.
What do you dislike about the product?
We're an international company with users all over. In order to setup AD mapping we needed to create several profiles for each country we have users in and there's no way to clone previous profiles even though they'd be the same except for the location. The AD mapping is also very limited, you can only match on country and department. Because we have a few different backup profiles based on department we ended up needed to create some PowerShell tools that update the security group because we just have too many discrete departments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Were able to deploy the backup solution worldwide for the first time and have it be almost completely automated from on boarding to off boarding.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
With a few tweaks you can completely automate on boarding and off boarding of users, make sure you put as much of that in place from the beginning.

What do you like best about the product?
Simple integration into your existing single computer or entire enterprise of computers.
Fast, low impact backups and restorations.
Easy to use but powerful portal with detailed information that is easily navigated through.
The ability to have a local cloud cache or be entirely cloud based.
The ability to not have it upload on certain networks; E.G. when on cellular hotspots.

What do you dislike about the product?
No ability to view/browse files of a backup without restoring the entire backup.
Lots of false alarms about systems not backing up/being out of compliance when a computer comes back online after a while of being offline and performs it's updates/backup routine.
As an IT Support Specialist logging into machines throughout the company and having it create a user profile for me on every machine I touch and then having to remove that machine from my profile in the portal is cumbersome.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to recover files from a damaged/lost system or from a previous employee whose computer has been repurposed to another user.
Having the local cache has greatly improved the speed in which we are able to backup/recover files
The built in asset management/tracking is a nice bonus, but has not yet been something we've had to actually use.
Gives an insight into users who are not on their computers much, or are not in areas with internet connectivity.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Regardless of whether you are a single user at home, a small business or a large corporation this software has the power and versatility the keep your data safe, and current. The on-site cloud cache is great for large businesses with lots of dating going in and coming out, but even the cloud only side of things is incredibly fast and very low impact on your system/bandwidth.
Druva inSync review
What do you like best about the product?
I love the simplicity for the end users. Once things are setup and running they take care of everything. It is rare that they call in for help with a restore or adding a folder.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to set it up so that a top level folder is configured on the server side, and the user could deselect sub folders under that top level folder.
Really a minor annoyance.

End Point Backup and FileSharing in One Solution
What do you like best about the product?
There is one solution to backup the end point data and allow employees to share data internally and externally. Their support is super fast.

Needs more features on the inSync (Dropbox like side). I know their focus is on data governance but employees are yearning for more sharing related features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Protecting data on employee computers. Allow employees to share data with each other and external clients using a secure company sanctioned service.
We have been able to recover deleted data from laptops.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mobile Device Management and backup.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would make sure individuals know that this product does NOT backup the device, unless the app is running in the fourground. If a user has not opened the app in the past hour/etc it will not update the devices location.
