Heitor,

It looks as if the only real selling point of your solution is that it is 
written in Rust. Apart from that, if you take a closer look at what you are 
trying to sell here, it is just marketing fluff.

Let’s take ransomware detection as an example. It is more than doubtful that 
what you are selling now is any different from what you already tried to market 
some time ago as PodHeitor. It was ineffective and pointless then, and nothing 
here suggests that has changed.

Your claim of deduplication with a 60x factor is highly questionable. I have no 
idea how you arrive at such numbers – presumably under idealized lab conditions 
with a carefully selected configuration that has little to do with reality.

You also write:

“From the mainframe to Microsoft 365 in one place — 21 database, virtualization 
and cloud plugins.”

I assume you do not have a mainframe at home, and it does not appear on your 
actual plugin list either. This makes your marketing statement misleading at 
best. As PodHeitor there was ever SAP HANA. You never can provide this as you 
must be a partner and you are not.

Your so‑called “high availability” is no such thing; at most it is a simple 
failover where you copy files somewhere else using SCP/SFTP. Architecturally, 
this is just wrong and falls far short of what real HA means in enterprise 
backup. Is this really automatic failure? Ask you AI, it is not.

Your entire solution looks just as fragile as your previous offerings that you 
kept promoting with bpipe and similar tools.

There is also no transparent price list, just a vague promise to be 50% cheaper 
than Veeam. Where are your actual prices? On your own site, you instead 
advertise discounts of “≥ 50% off your current Veeam / Commvault / NetBackup 
contract,” which raises even more questions about how realistic and sustainable 
your pricing is.

Based on the documents you have published in the past, it is doubtful that you 
even fully understood what your AI-generated material is saying.

Most of the features you list here are not innovations at all but a cheap copy 
of what you have simply recompiled or repackaged from Bacula Community, which 
already offers many plugins and advanced backup functions in open source form.

The more interesting question is how you and your development team intend to 
further develop Bacula Core itself, or whether you are once again just waiting 
for the next community release so you can copy new features into your product.

Innovation does not come from copy and paste. It comes from original design, 
real-world testing, and delivering value beyond what the community has already 
built.
