CONRAD FORREST

President at MTS Consulting Group, Inc.

The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support

MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

Affordable, highly scalable, and outstanding support

For moving the data for DR, we are using Megaport. We are using a Megaport link between the data centers, so we have a third party for the site-to-site connectivity between the data centers. If such connectivity is available from the Nutanix side, it would be helpful for us. Currently, Nutanix is providing the remote snapshot, and on the data center side, there is one cluster, and on the DR side, there is another cluster. We have synchronized both clusters with the same environment. For connectivity, we are using a Megaport link, and we have to pay a third party for that. If Nutanix can provide such connectivity, it will be helpful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."

"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."

"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."

"The initial setup is very easy. It's not overly complex."

"Technical support is very good."

"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."

"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."

"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."

More MSP360 Backup pros

"We haven't needed anyone to maintain or deploy the solution. The traditional Nutanix administrator can administer the solution."

"The solution is stable."

"Hyper-convergence gives me the ability to patch my firmware, software, and hypervisors with a single click. That is extremely useful."

"The most valuable feature is its simplicity."

"The tool's most valuable feature is ease of use."

"It offers synchronous data replication, allowing us to sync our recovery data every hour and efficiently send applications to remote sites."

"It is a very secure and scalable solution, and their support is also outstanding."

Cons

"The product could be more user-friendly."

"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."

"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."

"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 restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."

"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 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 graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"The solution needs improvement in cost."

"I think that Nutanix should support public clouds instead of the Nutanix data centers."

"They need better reporting on the environment."

"The pricing could be better."

"The product is more costly than other platforms. The price could be better."

"For moving the data for DR, we are using Megaport. We are using a Megaport link between the data centers, so we have a third party for the site-to-site connectivity between the data centers. If such connectivity is available from the Nutanix side, it would be helpful for us."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."

"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."

"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."

"The solution is expensive."

"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."

"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."

"We have a very good return on investment."

"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."

More MSP360 Backup pricing and cost advice

"Besides the license, there are additional costs with the network connection. The customer may want a direct connection between the two data centers and that has an extra cost."

"It is a little bit cheaper than the other products in the market. It is affordable."

"One-time costs may initially seem high, but they reflect the quality of the service received."

"I always want it to be cheaper."
