"Great value to consolidate backup infrastructure"
What do you like best about Unitrends Backup and Recovery?

Replaced multiple other solutions (Barracuda, Veeam) and added Disaster Recovery as a Service Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Unitrends Backup and Recovery?

* The software does seem to have a lot of quirks that we've had to work through support to get everything working, although support and the onboarding/training team were easy to work with.

* Documentation can seem dated.

* Initial hardware setup could be made easier, and definitely the documents you are supposed to fill out for installation service are confusing with conflicting information and a lot of unnecessary (we felt) questions.

* Never got DRaaS comfortably working Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
