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.

One of the cheapest products that also provides prompt support

It is fine if users want to use the product for a general purpose. If they want something with more options, they should choose other solutions. Veeam Agent for Linux has only basic features, and the configuration is not as good as other products. Veaam can create backups of the virtual environment, physical environment, and Office 365. You can also create backups to the cloud. There are many options. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."

"I liked the way the product worked, its flexibility on the storage and cost, and the way it was supported."

"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."

"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."

"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has been successfully backed up and what has not, which is very valuable because you don't have to check the machines, and the second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."

"Technical support is very good."

"The solution is appliance-free, the initial setup is very straightforward, the scalability and stability have never been a problem for us, technical support is very good, and we have found the price point to be quite good."

More MSP360 Backup pros

"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."

"I like the incremental backups and their failover."

"In one balanced solution, one single management pane, I can take care of everything, even my cloud infrastructure."

"The solution saved time and money."

"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward."

"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."

"It is scalable."

"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."

More Veeam Agent for Linux [EOL] pros

Cons

"The product could be more user-friendly."

"The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup."

"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now."

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

"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.""

"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."

"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 main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"There are some roadblocks with the licensing. Right now we are dealing with an issue because we cannot merge licenses."

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

"We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."

"They could be more customer-friendly."

"In terms of the physical environment, I'd like them to integrate it with other kinds of solutions."

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

"However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."

"The price of Veeam Agent for Linux could be reduced."

Pricing and Cost Advice

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

"We have a very good return on investment."

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

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

"The solution is expensive."

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

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

"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."

More MSP360 Backup pricing and cost advice

"It's a subscription based license, which is started on a yearly basis. Currently the licensing is split between three editions: standard, enterprise, and enterprise plus. As long as you check the comparison between the additions and make sure that you have what you need, there are no extra costs with Veeam."

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

"There's the principal license for Veeam Agent for Linux, and then you need to buy additional licenses for your machines."

"Price-wise it's good."

"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 monthly."

"The costing is very competitive."

"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
