A backup solution with better reporting and easy configuration
We were looking to replace our backup software and started doing a POC. During the POC, we realized the benefits of Clumio, especially given our small team. We always look for solutions that are easily manageable and not cumbersome. Clumio offers an easy interface, is simple to set up, and is easy to maintain. It provides a way to get daily reports directly from the software. Clumio has a straightforward setup; it involves deploying an OVF agent and connecting it to the cloud. Once connected, it begins backing up to the cloud. You can easily go to the cloud console and specify which servers need backups, and it starts the process. Different policies can be defined and assigned to servers, making the process much easier. Clumio also sends daily report emails, so every morning, we receive a report detailing what was successfully backed up and what failed. Their support is also good. If a backup fails twice, they proactively open a ticket and contact to resolve the issue.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"The backup and restore functionality is very easy to use and manage."
"Provides easy, one-click functionality and flexible backup policies and schedules for AWS workloads."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The backup and recovery are the most valuable features. So, our developers can work with confidence."
"The product is successful with the SMB market."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
"Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
"It's very economical and worth the cost."
"AWS adds more features and offer things for free, or cheaply. Therefore, we will be evaluating AWS Data Lifecycle Manager, because it will probably do backups. Thus, make sure the product that you are using is competitive or adds more value than AWS."
"It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
"The pricing and licensing on AWS is fine, because you can do it for smaller tiers depending on your number of instances, so it's not that scary."
