Great for endpoint backups and excellent service.

Druva inSync is one of the only endpoint backup products that gives us the option for an on-premises install. The backups are fast and efficient and easily managed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Migrating the product from one server to another was not as easy as we expected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a backup solution for our off-site laptops which allowed them to be backed up to our data center. Druva inSync allowed us to keep the backups in house. The management console is very easy to learn. This product has saved us a lot of time.

inSync Review from lead engineer
What do you like best about the product?
I love inSync is able to backup our laptops very easily. It means backup operations finish in a short time because of de-duplication. And now we can backup SaaS apps like Office 365. That is great helps for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
inSync has limited reports only. Competitors like box are able to report richer. And unfortunately, on-premise servers are not especially good. Master server doesn't have redundancy, edge servers can't use load balancer like F5, and storage node might be bottle neck.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We realize inSync can prevent our shadow IT. Users need cloud storage such as dropbox. However, using dropbox might have data loss. inSync provides good shared storage solutions with data loss prevention, because inSync can wipe data remotely and prevent to open other apps on iPhone.
Druva inSync is a winner!
What do you like best about the product?
Manageability of this product is so easy. I love the interface and the is very straight forward to making changes. setting up users, deploying via GPO, making changes after the deployment, Mac support using Windows wildcards. I also love that we can put users on hold and have the license recaptured. another great feature is that we can get super fast backups as the system does an amazing job at de-dupe and compression. the system also backs up user state, so icon placement user background etc can be easily restored when upgrading a users computer. 9/10
What do you dislike about the product?
undo changes would be nice, drag and drop and also being able to copy profiles. I would also like to see a way to share sub level folders with different permissions over the parent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
sync to cloud for our remote and corporate users as well as share between users. super easy and even though we are only a few months into it, the product has a super comfortable feel to it. when we have had to go back and do restores, even user-state restores the process is simple and fast. This product is a winner.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Contact their sales team and get a demo installed. this product has what you are looking for and the support is VERY responsive should you run into an issue.
Great backup solution, easy to manage/integrate.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the integration with AD and the ability to map using profiles. The profiles allow you to map using OUs and select different server locations (for different GEOs) for better up/down speeds.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface can be confusing, and AD mapping is not always straight forward. However once you get past the learning curve, things become substantially easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prior to Druva we had a complete lack of backup solution. Druva allowed us to easily push a backup solution to our users and protect our data. We also enjoy utilizing it's restore features for when we upgrade our users to new laptops. It makes it easy to restore their computer to how it was.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to create an infrastructure using AD Mappings. It will make adding new users significantly easier, especially when adding users in different geological locations.
Ease of Use and Just Works!
What do you like best about the product?
Only had one issue in the last over a year. It is great and great service!
What do you dislike about the product?
I already discussed this with them - when there is a problem or the service is down it would be nice to have a email sent out to inform us of that instead of having to create a ticket and wait.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every day users issues. This software is very easy to use and users can figure it out without having to call each time.
Good service for our data backup requirements.
What do you like best about the product?
Easy setup of the system and ease of use once installed.
What do you dislike about the product?
Dashboard interface could improve. The different login for user and admin could be centralized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
ITAR restricted data backup
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a good system to use.
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.
