Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of AWS Backup are point-in-time recovery and support resources."
"AWS Backup's most valuable feature is that you can configure it remotely to create backups."
"Reporting is one of the key elements that are valuable for C-suite executives. In terms of monitoring, the solution provides comprehensive details into ongoing processes, flagging issues and warnings as necessary."
"The advantage that AWS Backup has over competitors is that it's very simple."
"It's very easy to configure. Since it's a managed service, it's very straightforward to set up and use. And my customers get on with it very fast."
"It is highly scalable for both SMEs and large enterprises."
"The solution's most valuable features are its backup capability and tight integration with other AWS services."
"It provides an easy data migration process from on-premise to cloud."
"The solution is dependent on the network bandwidth. For example, if they have a bandwidth of 10Mbps the solution will run a little heavier. If the bandwidth is good the solution runs well."
"It provides our disaster recovery solution. It works fine in our tests."
"CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is a fairly stable solution."
"We went from an organization with minimal to no disaster recovery. I was able to spin up the disaster recovery environment with AWS rather quickly and meet business requirements."
"Technical support has been very good. They usually respond quickly to our requests."
"We have never had any issues with scalability."
"The most valuable aspect of CloudEndure Disaster Recovery is its instant block replication feature. This allows us to perform live block verification and eliminates the need to concern ourselves with recovery point objectives. This capability is particularly advantageous for critical workloads."
"It's on the cheaper side and not too expensive for users."
"It could be less expensive."
"The AWS Backup backend reporting is a major area that needs improvement. We would be very excited if we can see some reporting, such as trends. We do understand that there are reports available for S3 Bucket, in which the AWS backend stores the data. However, if we can receive holistic reporting, then it would be very helpful for us."
"The solution's reporting features and restore features can be improved."
"There could be a centralized dashboard with a reporting feature notifying us of daily backup status."
"When it comes to encrypting data, it is not so convenient."
"For additional functionalities, it should be more intelligent, like more AI-capabilities."
"It requires a lot of time to connect the snapshot, identify the files, and restore a single file manually."
"Its cost could be better than a few of its competitors."
"Definitely there should be better logging. From a customer perspective I would like to see more logs on what is happening. If there is an issue, I would like to know what the problem is. Right now, we have to depend on the support of the vendor to check and let us know, because we don't have access to a lot of logging information."
"I have not seen any areas that need improvement at this time."
"The UI could be a little sleeker."
"The failback could be improved. It should be more intuitive."
"The only thing I would like to see is, they don't have a formal ticketing system. There is no way I can go back and see what questions we had six months back, what issues we had, and how they were resolved."
"I would like to see better support for creating and working with archives."
"The solution's network setup and a lot of the control tower setup could be improved."
"The bandwidth is a constant upload communication to the AWS DR environment, so if you do not have the proper bandwidth, it will definitely eat up your internet line."
