I appreciate the ease of use of HYCU, which allows me to spend less time managing backups. The installation was very simple, and the simplicity of deployment and administration allows me to manage the solution efficiently, with just a glance at email notifications to check that everything is working well. Native dashboards in HYCU provide a global view of the backup status. I also like that HYCU manages backups protected by WORM technology ("Object Lock" features). The reliability of the solution has really helped me optimize my time compared to my previous solution, Commvault, which I found more complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main area for improvement in HYCU is in the configuration of backups. For example, I would like to be able to schedule a monthly backup on the 15th of the month, but HYCU does not offer the possibility to do so because HYCU is a solution designed to be based on meeting RTO/RPO (with configurable time windows) rather than on strict scheduling.

I find HYCU really simple to use for backing up all of our virtual machines both to a local device and into the cloud, giving us on-site and off-site backups. It's simple for our technical team to use and integrates seamlessly with Nutanix. The support we've received from HYCU has been excellent. It's a great addition to the final product we offer to our customers, ensuring their machines are safely backed up. Setting it up with HYCU was really easy as they worked closely with our technical team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I honestly don't think there's anything that could be added. Perhaps a mobile phone app that would report successful backups that we can have a quick look at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integrates and works with Nutanix seamlessly. Performs well backing up quickly and ensures we hit all our backup and restore targets.

The user interface is smooth and easy to navigate, information you need is easy to find and never far away.

When needed we have found the technical support staff to really know the product and solve our issue or answer our query first time.. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside we have found in our years of using HYCU is how it backs up physical servers in our environment. We don't have many of them but they are not differentiated in the UI from the virtual servers, and backing up a server with a large disk that is less than 20% full still takes a very long time.

Dependable and easy to use, with straightforward upgrades and very good support. Adding on prem or cloud storage is also easy to do and HYCU integrates well with Nutanix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, I’m very happy with HYCU. One thing I’ve run into, and would like to see added, is the ability to include the date in the name of a scheduled report. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is simple and efficient. I also appreciate its connection with Nutanix, the speed of restoration, as well as the different options offered for restoring. Finally, the support is very effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The pricing seems a bit high to me nonetheless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that HYCU is simple and continually just works with very few issues over 5 years. I appreciate the delegation of roles and data access within Office 365 backups, allowing other team members or non-technical people to access their data, so they can restore their own data. The interface in HYCU is simpler to configure and maintain compared to Veeam. The initial setup was very easy, with HYCU support assisting us; it was up and running in minutes.

Until recently, upgrading the Nutanix on-prem software could be a little time-consuming, requiring manual downloading and uploading of images. There has been a recent update to make this much smoother now. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

HYCU stands out for its simplicity of deployment and its cloud-native approach. The tool allows for the quick protection of environments like Microsoft 365 without complex infrastructure. Centralized management, granular restorations, and global visibility offer a real time-saving advantage in operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

On the automation side, HYCU remains quite limited as soon as one moves beyond standard use cases. The solution is very effective in a "set and forget" logic with simple predefined policies, which is ideal for quick deployments. However, this simplicity comes at the expense of flexibility for more complex environments. [hycu.com] Specifically:

Advanced scheduling capabilities remain relatively limited, with few detailed options to orchestrate complex backup scenarios. [g2.com] Automation relies mainly on built-in mechanisms rather than customizable workflows (such as multi-step orchestration). Integration possibilities via API exist, but they are less rich than in more mature solutions, which limits advanced automation scenarios (CI/CD integration, DR automation).
