The solution has made us more efficient and helps to recover data that is older than 90 days."

Cons
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments.""It is challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it.""The restoration could be faster.""For improvement, AvePoint can provide details on how the tool's backup scope works.""I would like to see improvements in the tool's initial seed. The initial seed of around 10 TB of SharePoint data took 45 days to complete.""The component in the product that can be improved revolves around the area where the tool should focus on providing more of a custom touch to the policies.""Some customers choose other backup solutions because AvePoint is Office 365 and CRM backup system, but they have other backup needs for Azure and so on. Such customers often choose another backup solution instead of AvePoint.""It is not a traditional restore process and it is somewhat limited in what we can do."

"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server.""There is a compatibility issue with HCI.""The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable.""It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform.""There isn't much to improve. They just need to follow the trend or the development of other Linux products. Follow in terms of making the product compatible with new versions of Linux. They just need to include as many versions for Linux as possible.""In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location.""We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process.""Technical support could be improved."
