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 WAN accelerator feature has been the most valuable for me. That feature reduced the time needed to complete the task from 25 days to less than a week! This is compared with the original tools used: ntbackup, robocopy and Windows Server Backup."
"Veeam ONE is a straightforward solution and compatible with almost all hardware."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"Replication is the most valuable feature."
"I like the tool's backup."
"Replication and restore object in Exchange boxes with possibility to select part of Microsoft directory."
"For me, the most important feature is alerting."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"The initial setup is not always easy, and customers often need a lot of help to get Veeam up and running successfully."
"Pricing can be improved."
"The threshold could be easier to configure."
"The web interface could be more visual."
"When you want to restore files, you first need to restore the machine, and then you have to mount it, and then restore the files."
"Since the solution has many options, it is not easier to give tasks to schedule it."
"If you do not use the standard software and you go with a third-party solution such as this one, it might not work the same. There is an integration issue I understand between the database standards."
"The interface and cluster environments could be improved in the future as presently they are using agent interface instead of user interface. Also, the backup for the Oracle WAC environment can be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I rate the pricing a five, depending on the application and environment."
"The price is quite fair."
"We pay for a license to use this solution, and we recommend that our customers pay for a license and a renewal license."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"We are on an annual license for Veeam Backup Replication. We could expand or upgrade the license for the Office365 features. Next year we might go to a three-year plan for support on license."
"If you have Exchange, Oracle, SQL, or a supported SAN, then I suggest getting at least an Enterprise edition. It’ll pay for itself in no time."
"We are fine with its pricing policy."
"They have a free edition that can back up up to 10 VMs or physical servers. Small and medium businesses can use this edition until they can afford to get a license, and after they get a license, they just activate it on the same console. That's the amazing thing about it."
