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.

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 best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."

"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."

"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."

"Technical support is very good."

"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."

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

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

More MSP360 Backup pros

"Veeam Agent for Linux's most valuable feature is the compatibility with virtual machines, such as VMware."

"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."

"It's simple to use."

"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."

"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."

"It is scalable."

"The solution is very simple. Management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."

"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."

Cons

"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""

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

"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."

"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."

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

"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."

"The product could be more user-friendly."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions. We don't just work with Microsoft or Linux, but other kinds of infrastructure data as well."

"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."

"More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution."

"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."

"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."

"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."

"The integration needs improvement."

"In the next version, I would like to see an increase in the locations online. I have found that other products have good pickup location."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing needs improvement."

"We have a very good return on investment."

"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."

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

"The solution is expensive."

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

"We have purchased a license to use Veeam Agent for Linux and the additional support. The overall cost of Veeam Agent for Linux is expensive."

"Licensing costs are $300,000 USD yearly, and we pay for three years at a time."

"The costing is very competitive."
