Reviewer Logan Harbaugh put Bocada Vision through its paces to test VM backup and restore success, performance, capacity use, reporting, and other functions.

"With broad backup application support and excellent integration with vCenter and leading virtual backup solutions, Vision provides as much information on backups, restores, replication and snapshots as any administrator might want," said Harbaugh. "Vision gives administrators the tools to effectively analyze all VM data protection activity in their environment, which will significantly reduce administrative efforts and improve operations." The review praised the product's advanced management tools including health checks, policy management, SLA management, problem management, auditing, change management and capacity planning.

"We thank Mr. Harbaugh and Virtualization Review magazine for their help in demonstrating how Bocada Vision can help overcome the challenges of backup in VMware environments and reduce costs, improve satisfaction and achieve operational excellence," said Nancy Hurley Bocada CEO. "This thorough review provides administrators with much food for thought in how to manage their VM backups, assure  recoverability and reduce costs."

Bocada Vision is available as a standalone module within the Bocada Prism family, a service management platform purpose built to help organizations move through the DPSM process, a multi-phase set of best practices to ensure cost-effective delivery of data protection services to customers. Bocada leveraged years of customer experiences to create a workflow-driven, intelligent analysis solution with built in SLA impact analysis, change tracking, trend analysis and a searchable knowledge base to ensure organizations can meet business goals and improve operational efficiencies. When used over an extended period of time, Prism and Vision or the integrated solution for physical and virtual environments, vpConnect, provide a historical overview of data protection activity across the environment to help ensure operational excellence.
