Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."The most valuable features of Azure Backup for us are its flexible retention options and the ability to recover to a second region with geo-replication and read access."
"The scalability has been good."
"Azure Backup is good because it is entirely cloud-based, which means that you can be 99.9% sure that your backup is safe."
"This solution is easy to configure and restore. It is a Microsoft product so is easily compatible with other solutions."
"The best aspect of the solution is its backup functionality."
"It is a stable solution...The product is worth the money you pay for it."
"It is easy to schedule backups."
"The most valuable feature is the ease in which it backs up our data."
"The restoration and infrastructure is extremely reliable."
"While Azure Backup allows ingress data, the egress data is chargeable, which should be excluded."
"Technical support can be slow to respond at times."
"In the next release, I would like to see the ability to back up to different cloud providers."
"The integration with the record database and integration with other applications will be good, especially with the database piece."
"Azure lacks sufficient solutions for a particular scenario, we may need to resort to using third-party applications. In such cases, these applications can be employed to facilitate backup, replication, and the efficient utilization of internet connectivity and bandwidth. They enable us to effectively manage and transfer data while ensuring optimal utilization of network resources. However, it would be a benefit if we did not have to use third-party applications for these operations."
"The monitoring and tagging features could be improved."
"Azure Backup's licensing model is very challenging because it doesn't give a clear picture."
"Azure Backup could improve the backup data copies because they are not immutable."
"We would like to have the opportunity to omit data from being backed up. For example, we have three virtual machines, each with three disks. When running the backup, it will automatically take each disk rather than allowing us to select what data we want backed."
