## About Druva Data Security Cloud
Over the past decade, data risks have diversified, shifting data protection’s role from a passive last line of defense to an active data partner in responding to and recovering from diverse data risks. Traditionally, backup solutions aimed to secure against system risks such as hardware and application failures. However, with cloud making infrastructure redundant and applications becoming more resilient, risks have shifted from infrastructure to the data layer. While security tools play a critical role in creating defensive layers to secure the enterprise perimeter, some threats inevitably breach these defenses. Legacy backup approaches typically resorted to brute force recovery, but modern incident response demands a thorough analysis of the breach&#39;s scope, impact, and remediation strategies before recovery can occur. Data security is essential in this process, providing deep data insights that, when combined with perimeter security data, drive comprehensive and effective data-powered incident response. Druva bolsters enterprise data defense with the Data Security Cloud, a 100% SaaS, fully-managed platform that enhances protection, monitoring, and recovery. Druva ensures secure and clean recovery through air-gapped immutable backups, and advanced anomaly detection facilitates early threat identification. The platform&#39;s integrated response capabilities allow organizations to assess and address threats promptly, and bounce back to clean data without loss. By combining these features, Druva complements existing perimeter defenses, providing a seamless, comprehensive solution that simplifies the response and recovery process and ensures robust protection against modern threats. About Druva Druva is the leading provider of data security solutions, empowering customers to secure and recover their data from all threats. The Druva Data Security Cloud is a fully managed SaaS solution offering air-gapped and immutable data protection across cloud, on-premises, and edge environments. By centralizing data protection, Druva enhances traditional security measures and enables faster incident response, effective cyber remediation, and robust data governance. Trusted by over 7,500 customers, including 65 of the Fortune 500, Druva safeguards business data in an increasingly interconnected world.

## Druva Data Security Cloud Reviews
  ### 1. Solid, worry free product to meet your backup needs

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 11, 2021

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

Druva just works. Once you have the client installed, apply the settings, and it is worry-free.

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

Druva has increased prices lately, making it harder for small businesses and non-profits to afford. Backups should be affordable for all, regardless of size and status.

**Recommendations to others considering Druva Data Security Cloud:**

Please give them a look, but be sure to push and negotiate on the price. Be sure to compare prices and hold that to Druva if needed.

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used Druva to replace our old tape backup system. We gained a worry-free system, with no need to manage tapes or other media.

  ### 2. Decent Solution to Protect Your Data

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jorge V. | Network Administrator/Office 365 Administrator/Video Production/Photography, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2020

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

We found Druva inSync is a descent solution for mid size organizations looking a central backup solution. Can become a bit of a headache for larger organizations due to occasional issues with agents. This could be easily overcome if Druva support steps us a bit and backup client is thoroughly tested for bugs and incompatibilities before release.

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

As mentioned earlier there quite some room for improvement such as Backup agent reliability, Support needs some improvement and reporting.

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Druva inSync is being used and has been our backup solution of choice to protect all our users data on corporate owned machines for both onsite and remote employees across the organization. Aside for a number of issues backing up OneDrive for Business and local backup client stop backing up randomly for several users for a period of time, eventually these issues got resolved. Biggest benefit is being able to manage backup from one central location.

  ### 3. Great product being discontinued

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Dom J. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 18, 2020

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

The ability to point clients to a local data storage option provides companies with the best control and information governance. Centralised management of clients and data assists system administrators to deploy and manage large network deployments with ease. Browsing of historical data and prior versions is simple and users can initiate their own data recovery at a highly granular level. Access to technical support is relatively easy and they are quite responsive.

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

The current version of the client that we use which allows for storage of data on an on premise server is being phased out early 2021, meaning that the only option available will be to backup to a cloud service. This is disappointing and makes it largely a clone of every other 'cloud backup' product out there (Mozy, iDrive, etc). A bug exists with licensing where the client floods the network with connection requests to the license server; if the connection to the server cannot be established it crashes the local network.

**Recommendations to others considering Druva Data Security Cloud:**

Consider whether backup of data to an on premise server is a requirement. If so then this product will not meet your requirements from next year.

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

inSync provides us with a user accessible local data storage and backup option which is easy to use and manage. This assists with users switching between machines and hotdesking, as well as data recovery in the event of loss or damage of EUC devices. The ability of users to initiate their own data restore and recovery results in a significant decrease in tickets to the Service Desk to perform these tasks.

  ### 4. Druva Works

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Scott K. | Manager of the Makerbot Innovation Center, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 20, 2019

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

it does it's job quietly in the background, with minimal to no performance impact

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

recovery from server is very slow, the following is to meet the required length for this box. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

thankfully I haven't needed Druva, but it does provide peace of mind knowing I'm backed up

  ### 5. Great product 

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2019

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

Easy to use, easy customer recovery of files.

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

That I'm being forced to move to the hosted solution for more money. We will be transitioning to OneDrive backup to prevent the additional costs.

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Desktop backup solution for campus users.

  ### 6. works behind the scenes, but restore is slow

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Program Development | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 19, 2019

**What do you like best about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

runs on its own in the background -set it and forget it

**What do you dislike about Druva Data Security Cloud?**

speed of restores - seems to take a long time, especially after catastrophic failure when lots of data (GBs) required

**What problems is Druva Data Security Cloud solving and how is that benefiting you?**

online backup solution
