Looking to migrate backup service to Unitrends.

@JasGot said in Looking to migrate backup service to Unitrends.:
We've been a Cloudberry Provider for many years. We have some customers on Unitrends.
We are in the process of moving all our customers to Datto. It's partner channel only, so you'll have to find someone to work through.
We are putting an appliance onsite; with forever cloud copy.
I hate Unitrends for a plethora of reasons, and I just don't have a high level of confidence in Cloudberry anymore.
Also, I do like the idea of the onsite appliance for quick recovery rather than downloading fro the cloud (current Cloudberry setup).
Datto's backups are all stored P2V, you can spin up a VM of someone's PC or your server in about 40 seconds. I like this part.
Datto restore aren't that fast as far as I have tried and we have many appliances.

In what way? The VMs sitting on our local Datto appliance are up and running in about 40 seconds.
Same for those we spin up in the cloud.Now bringing a full system restore down from cloud storage can only be as fast as your ISP connection.

What are your resources on the VM? Like are you running a VM with 80 GB of Data or TB of Data?

@dbeato I've had Datto brought up to me in conversations in the past year. I'm interested to see if it fits with our refresh coming up. Right now, all options are on the table.

It is nice to have, but depends of your budget and what you have. What do you have?

Just a local backup target. Nothing offsite.

Yeah, That I can spin up fast. But we have some clients with VMs that have about 2 to 4 TB so 40 seconds is not that realistic for that size but still fast.

Have you considered splitting their OS from that much data?

That is how they are, OS is about 150 GB to 200 GB tops. Other VHD/VHDX are for Data.
