The main reason we switched to Vembu was the affordability of it as well as the ability to back up and restore hypervisors in a matter of minutes. And the ease of use was also a factor. It seems much less cumbersome than some other applications I’ve used. It just does the job and it’s something that we don’t have to worry about. Once it’s set up and working, it’s just working.
– Stuart Conner, Director of IT
We tried Altaro but it was not so reliable as it crashed the storage many times. It lacks a few important features. When we learned about Vembu BDR, we downloaded and evaluated it to its full potential. To our surprise, it was very easy to use, faster and reliable. Vembu really helped us with automating virtual machine backups. It saves a lot of time and we have peace of mind. Vembu meets important fundamental needs of our organization.
– Hariesh Nair, Assistant Manager – IT
I like the simplicity of Vembu, it’s super intuitive to use in either ESX or Hyper V. I’ve tried both full/increment VM backup and VM replication and both work flawlessly. It’s also a really cost-effective way to backup your environment. Finally, what makes it even better is the support guys are on point.
