Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance.""The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently.""The initial setup is very easy. It's not overly complex.""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 solution is simple to use and easy to configure.""MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface.""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.""General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."

"What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management.""It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company.""Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one.""It's stable and reliable.""The user interface is good.""I like the incremental backups and their failover.""The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward.""The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."

Cons
"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel.""We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines.""There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station.""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 main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not.""The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated.""The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable.""The solution's pricing is very high."

"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.""More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution.""It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though.""The integration needs improvement.""The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable.""In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud.""Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible.""It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
