Arcserve UDP Overview

What is Arcserve UDP?

Arcserve Unified Data Protection (UDP) delivers data protection and disaster recovery for every type of workload. Backed by heterogeneous, image-based technology that protects to and from any target, it’s the first of its kind to combine enterprise-ready features without the complexity of traditional enterprise solutions. Deployment modalities include software, physical appliances and hybrid cloud. Easily turn on and off capabilities as needed, and scale hybrid business continuity topologies, locally or over long distances with multiple sites, including service and cloud providers. Installation is done in a few clicks. Create data stores on the recovery point server, add the nodes you want to protect, a storage destination, and a plan. Back up to either a local machine or a central recovery point server (RPS) with global, source-side deduplication. A destination can be an RPS, local folder, or remote shared folder. Add network CIFS/NFS shares, Office 365 Exchange or SharePoint online nodes, and create related tasks. Perform jobs such as backup, virtual standby, instant VM and replicate. Perform a simple restore or a bare metal recovery. Fully protect a broad range of platforms, including: Windows, Linux, Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure, Office 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business), Microsoft Exchange, MS SQL, file servers, Microsoft IIS, Microsoft Active Directory, Oracle Database, PostgreSQL, VMware vSphere (agentless), Microsoft Hyper-V (agentless) and Nutanix AHV.

What do you like best about Arcserve UDP?

Not a lot, instant VM I guess, impressive de-dupe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP?

Lack of meaningful reports, missing info on reports, product is flaky - works one night, not the next, recovery takes an age - 30-40 minutes to load a backup set, and if you've got the wrong date, 30-40 minutes more for the next one ad infinitum. Search is hopeless. Support takes a loooong time. Was fine for small PoC, scaling up to 00's brings nothing but pain. 'Agentless' backups can't cope with more than a handful of nodes - ended up having to install agents everywhere - which we wanted to get away from Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Absolutely none, should have stuck with DPM Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arcserve UDP?

The backups are quick, compared to the tape system we used to have, its extremely quick. Especially once the original seeding is done, the incrementals take almost not time at all to go through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP?

Sometimes when our replication box disconnects (network issue) the merge jobs then don't run properly when it reconnects so it tends to fill up more than it should. Not a huge deal, just means I have to hop in once a month or so and clean it up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Making sure we have reliable back ups of all data an email. So far its worked like a charm. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Arcserve UDP?

The Arcserve UDP is an effective backup, especially in our case, were other VM-only, agentless backups wouldn't work. The interface is relatively easy to navigate. The system is reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP?

It's not the easiest nor most intuitive to set up and use. There are some stability issues with both the server and the agents. There are times where a scheduled backup gets missed because an agent crashed or is locked. The agent's poor state isn't known until the backup fails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I've been able to back up older OS machines, and special duty servers that other solutions simply can't Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Functional and has minimal issues backing up client data Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Arcserve UDP?

restores of multiple individual users must be done individually. User creation is a pain when you want to delegate specific clients. Generates an email on job completion but we struggle to identify chronic issues. Clients would also like to see data storage per location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great product. Works from a technical perspective but it requires some extra effort to maintain and manage. Requires oversight from technicians responsible and doesn't have great customer reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
