HYCU vs. Quest Migration Manager & Migrator

It’s well suited for Nutanix AHV data protection and includes the ability for immutable backups via WORM policy. I’m unsure of its performance in environments that use Hyper-V OR VMware for virtualization. The use of tiered backups without additional policies are great when creating new VMs, even automatically assigning a default backup policy to ensure that all workloads have at least a minimal level of data protection

Dell ChangeBASE is well suited in migrating an OS to a new version, or 32/64-bit. It's also helpful when virtualizating workstations into Thin Clients for use with Citrix or other thin provisioning services.

• OS Patch Testing - We further used this to test Microsoft's Patch Tuesday releases before we put them in production.
• Web Dashboard - The latest version added a fully customization dashboard with widgets to give you an at-a-glance view.
• Application comparability - We used this to test our Windows XP to Windows 7 migration.

• Better DR support guidance/best practices
• Reporting isn’t straightforward and as customizable as I’d like
• Including M365 backups without additional cost would be a big value add for us

• Initial setup can be tricky - We needed to contact support for some help.
• Prior to the latest version, there wasn't an easy way to view all of our results. The new dashboard has rectified this.

Very simple interface. Can learn it in a day. The instances where I needed a little hand holding, I just called support and they assisted immediately. That's the best of both worlds.

I have had several requests, and issues with the rollout and deployment of HYCU in our production environment. The HYCU team of support and developers have met each issue with importance and some kind of resolution or explanation of help. They have been so supportive even in the not so easy ones. That says something for their product and team behind it.

I have used several backup programs, I selected 2 just to be brief. The best thing I see with HYCU over Veeam is that it is much more difficult for an attacker if inside the network to gain access to the backups and objects saved in the backup storage. The best part about HYCU over Bacula is that it is much easier to use and more stable. The interface alone will save you from time and energy using other products

Dell ChangeBASE is more costly when compared to Admin Studio, I believe the price was almost double. However, Admin Studio did not provide a comfortable level of support and we felt we were in better hands with Dell's patching schedule. Admin Studio wasn't able to answer our question on when they released software updates and how complex an upgrade would be.

• I trust this product to protect our organization if things go badly.
• I am able to not lose sleep thinking about backups.

• ROI was seen after 10 months of use.
• Greatly sped up the application testing process by several weeks, and allowed our existing development team to continue working on other projects.
