Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The monitoring makes it very easy to check whether a backup has gone bad."
"The most valuable feature is that it's hands-off. I log in every morning and there are pre-canned filters that I've created to make my life easier. I have something called server status color bars, and that gives me all the servers and, in a nutshell, I can see: if any errors are being reported; when the last backup was; if one is not working, should there be one, and it literally jumps off the page."
"The ease of use and the console are great."
"The user interface is the most valuable. It gives us the ability to check everything. With more than 100 endpoints running that software, I like the ability to quickly check that everything is working correctly. That's one of the biggest selling points."
"The most valuables feature is the alerts and monitoring that catches the failed backups."
"What I like the most about it's the ease of use and the reliability that it has when copying information to the cloud."
"For starters, this is one of few databases that allow us to backup MySQL databases, most others only support Microsoft SQL. This solution also has a very user-friendly interface accessed through a web browser. Additionally, backups can be easily configured through N-able Backup."
"The most valuable aspect is the added protection of having a cloud-based backup service. It provides redundancy in case of data loss."
"Setting up VMs can be done quickly. It is easy to use."
"We feel the ability to move virtual machines while they are still running to be the most valuable feature."
"Technical support is very proactive and helpful."
"The initial setup is easy depending on the environment you are working with."
"The most valuable features are the backup and disaster recovery services."
"The only area that needs improvement is that it is a little bit difficult when you get into virtual machines. The initial deployment of Cove is a little tedious, not for standard machines, but when you get into specialty stuff, like Hyper-V."
"An area for improvement that would really work out well would be if there were a little bit more of an elegant handshake relationship between SolarWinds RMM and the PCs that are being backed up, to advise regarding "up" status... Since RMM is an agent that feeds back that a machine is alive and on, I don't see any reason why they can't either tap into that one feature or build the same exact polling within the backup agent, to update right away and say the system is online or offline."
"There could be a possibility to create a local NAS backup for infrastructure."
"For the MSP side, they could have more of a "security user" that can go in and only see certain clients. If you give somebody access as a technician, they can see all the clients."
"Integration with a hybrid cloud is something that I found complicated."
"N-able Cove Data Protection for Microsoft 365 is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The reporting feature and functionality need improvement. We would like to see a little bit more detailed reporting that offers more CEO or C-level focused reporting options."
"For small amounts of data, recovery is easy, but when it's large amounts of data, it takes forever. So, if they can have a service where they put our data on a hard drive and ship it to us as fast as possible, it would be great. Even if there's a fee associated with it, it's fine."
"VMware Cloud Disaster Recovery could improve by enhancing the network bandwidth from the storage."
"It would be ideal if they added advanced analytics or AI to the solution."
"The improvements should be as per customer requirements."
"When starting up the replication and converting it to the virtual machine I had some problems. I had to start the process again and that is inconvenient."
"The automation should be simplified or improved."
