"The solution is easy to use and has high performance."

"In my opinion, the user interface and the user friendliness could be improved. The specific thing I have in mind are the graphics, which are not quite user-friendly."
"The stability could improve, a lot of scheduled backups failed at one time."
"It would be helpful if there was cloud support."
