Pros
"Granular restoration is extremely useful in Altaro VM Backup for MSPs since it is something that we make use of the most in our company."

More Altaro VM Backup for MSPs Pros →

"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability.""One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup.""The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here.""MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface.""The initial setup is very easy. It's not overly complex.""It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution.""Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions.""The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."

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 initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on.""The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode.""The product could be more user-friendly.""The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated.""The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy.""The solution's pricing is very high.""As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing."""Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."
