"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"Our customers do not need to purchase third party storage or a separate server for data backup."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."

"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
