"Great for Disaster recovery or quickly accessing older file versions"

5/5

What do you like best about BDRShield?

Easy to navigate interface. Setting up VM backups for disaster recovery is straightforward and works great. I receive image integrity reports showing the boot status of the backed up VMs and I can perform a manual test recovery in a few minutes. Just works for both my Hyper-V and VMware VMs and physical servers. Licensing options are reasonably priced - especially the small business less than 6 CPU licenses- allow annual subscriptions or one time purchases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BDRShield?

The only negative I have about the software is that the upgrade process can be a bit tedious and some random issues usually come up after a version upgrade. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering BDRShield:

Support is excellent-- At all hours I have submitted simple to complicated questions and I receive responses almost immediately and support assists until issue is resolved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BDRShield solving and how is that benefiting you?

Needed a comprehensive backup solution for multiple VMs for both Hyper-V and VMware. Recovery a single file or folder --or recovering an entire VM; process is easy and straightforward. Image integrity checks have always been accurate to let me know I can count on our backups. Can be emailed if a backup fails- integrates with 3rd party monitoring software.
