We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable aspect is the added protection of having a cloud-based backup service. It provides redundancy in case of data loss.""The ability to back up, restore, and do different types of testing for the preventative maintenance has really increased our importance to these clients because they see the value in how fast we can get them back up and running. We're saving them money in that way.""The product is simple to use and manage. The customers have access to verify the backups.""The most valuables feature is the alerts and monitoring that catches the failed backups.""One of the bigger features and advantages of the solution is that it is easy to integrate with my RMM which is also N-able.""The monitoring makes it very easy to check whether a backup has gone bad.""For starters, this is one of few databases that allow us to backup MySQL databases, most others only support Microsoft SQL. This solution also has a very user-friendly interface accessed through a web browser. Additionally, backups can be easily configured through N-able Backup.""The initial setup of N-able Cove Data Protection was very easy."

"The best part about this solution is that it just works.""The deployment is quite simple. Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features. The solution offers good transparency for the end-user.""The most valuable feature is that it is very elastic. It's adaptable because it's very flexible and modular.""The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful.""It's a stable solution.""This solution works really well and it is simple to deploy.""While there are some complexities, Veeam tries to keep the product simple and offers a good knowledge base. It's quite structured, so you can easily take one subject and learn about it simply by reading through the documentation.""In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution."

Cons
"A disaster recovery console would be an improvement for the product.""Having the licensing available for partners to be able to take advantage of testing without paying would make a big difference.""For small amounts of data, recovery is easy, but when it's large amounts of data, it takes forever. So, if they can have a service where they put our data on a hard drive and ship it to us as fast as possible, it would be great. Even if there's a fee associated with it, it's fine.""The reporting feature and functionality need improvement. We would like to see a little bit more detailed reporting that offers more CEO or C-level focused reporting options.""One area I don't like has to do with the agent that goes on the system... if a system stays offline for some length of time, say for a week or so, I may have to go back in and reinstall the agent to get it back in business. I don't know what's causing that.""A feature I'd like to see would be a more customizable admin console.""A better default view on my dashboard would be great. There is a lot of useless information there that it pulls up. They could present the dashboard slightly better, in terms of the extra information after the first five columns. The first five columns are awesome. After that, I don't care about the rest, and there are another seven things after that.""The one thing they don't are Linux servers, it's Windows only. I understand that directive. I have another product that I use for our Linux servers and stuff, but it would be nice if they had that flexibility on the Linux side. I understand the development and the world is geared towards Windows in 365, I know that's where the clienteles are and the business and the money is."

More N-able Cove Data Protection Cons →

"The bandwidth optimization needs to be improved and have better efficiency so that you send fewer amounts of data from one site to the other.""The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept.""The solution could improve the stability.""The security of encrypted data could be better.""The flexibility results in more administrative GUI. The GUI needs improvement.""There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features.""The pricing is much higher than what our clients expect it to be.""The dashboard could be more intuitive."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The pricing of SolarWinds seems to be fair compared to the rest of the industry."
  • "When you have a device/appliance on the site quite a lot of the other enterprise class backup people insist that you have their appliance, which is frankly offensively expensive. Because when you pry the top off, it's just a standard 19-inch tin box with a standard Intel I5 in it, some RAM, and a hard drive. Then, you go, "Why have they just charged me 5,500 quid for a box, which I could have probably build for under 500." Whereas, with the SolarWinds product, they don't have that. The backup appliances that we have onsite are just plain cooking PCs. We can build our own machines, which is reflected in the price that we can offer a customer."
  • "There is no per node cost, at least not the way I am doing it. I am on bulk. New customers can be set up on a trial, where they can get things all squared away, then they can switch over to being a billed customer."
  • "I believe that the price is very reasonable in comparison to other options. It is cheaper than both Redstor and Acronis and, since we are now using our own on-premise cloud, there is absolutely no comparison since we have unlimited storage rather than paying per gigabyte used for their onsite storage. We are currently able to backup fifty computers for the same price that we use to backup five computers."
  • "The only option I would like to see is an adjustable scale. Right now we have 250 seats and we're not using all of them. It would be nice to be able to save that little bit of money by being able to buy just what we need."
  • "Cove only takes the data you have on the physical server. I can back that up for long periods of time, and I don't accrue high charges to have the data in the cloud. It stays at one rate. This allows me to forecast payment for the next one or two years and show clients their estimated growth."
  • "The price isn't extreme, but I'd love to pay less."
  • "The pricing is very competitive and it's well worth the price."

  • "I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
  • "The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."
  • "We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."
  • "The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
  • "It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
  • "The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."
  • "The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."
  • "The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
