More Altaro VM Backup for MSPs Pros →

"Its dashboard is quite well done. When you log into the GUI, you can basically see everything you need to know. There is also the possibility to edit the view as you like, which is great.""It has File and SQL backup, which is the main benefit for us.""The solution allows us to block off our network and only give access to whatever we want.""Having the web-based interface is important to us because we can access it from any computer in the network, rather than having it installed and available for use only on a specific one.""The platform helps us with efficient QoreStor deduplication (DD) capabilities and configuration.""The interface is very user-friendly.""The user interface is good.""The initial setup is straightforward. It's not that complicated. Deployment took maybe about 15 minutes."

Cons
"A technical person who hasn't received any dedicated training or hasn't gone through the documentation part of the solution may find the product to be a little non-intuitive at times."

More Altaro VM Backup for MSPs Cons →

"The stability of the solution is poor.""The product’s SQL backup plugin needs improvement.""The initial setup is a little complex.""The storage capacity is very low.""There are command-line limitations. There is not a very strong possibility to work with the command line. The commands that are there are not that powerful, and you need to be very good at scripting, for example, in PowerShell or in Bash in case it is running on Linux systems. You need to combine a lot of commands together, and still, you will not get a great output that is presentable to others. You cannot work with it as easily.""In the next version, I would like to see support for the MongoDB database. As it is now, there is no component that works with it and we cannot back the data up using NetVault.""There are certain issues with the product that we report to Quest, and we get offered a workaround instead of a fix. There could be better interaction with the development teams, perhaps in terms of transparency.""I would like to see the option of cloud-based management."
