Datto Endpoint Backup for Windows vs Druva Endpoint Data Protection

Datto Endpoint Backup for Windows backs up and restores Windows PCs, servers, virtual machines, and cloud instances directly to Datto Cloud, without an appliance. Policies let administrators choose data, schedule backups from once every hour to once every 24 hours, set retention periods of 90 days, 1 year, 3 years, or 7 years, and manage bandwidth. Recovery includes files and folders, file versions restored elsewhere or downloaded directly, and bare metal restores to the same or different hardware. A unified portal provides alerts and visibility into backup status, history, storage use, and policy settings for Windows and Mac endpoints. Backups are encrypted in transit and at rest, with optional customer-managed keys; listed protections also include forced MFA, KaseyaOne single sign-on, and immutable cloud storage. The product integrates with Autotask PSA, Datto RMM, Kaseya VSA, IT Glue, and Compliance Manager GRC. Supported systems include Windows 10 and 11, Windows Server 2012 R2 through 2025, and macOS, though Windows 10/11 Enterprise multi-session is incompatible. Pricing is on request, based on storage used, and there is no free plan.
