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.

Reliable and issue-free with a helpful onboarding wizard
The solution has been installed on Linux machines.  The solution is issue-free. We are happy with it.  The solution has been stable and reliable.  It is scalable.  My understanding the setup is pretty straightforward and that the onboarding wizard is pretty easy to follow.  I've never had to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"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."
"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions."
"The UI is pretty good; it's very simple and very user-friendly."
"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."
"I liked the way the product worked, its flexibility on the storage and cost, and the way it was supported."
"It is very good, and it fits the purpose."
"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."
"The solution saved time and money."
"The really amazing feature about Veeam Agent is that when you're using the central deployment model, you can actually use the instant VM recovery feature, which is really a pain point that I find some days."
"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's stable and reliable."
"The flexibility and user-friendliness of Veeam make it very IT operations-friendly."
"The solution is very simple, and management of the platform is so simple that we don't need to have any training to deploy this solution."
 

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."
"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"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 interface could use some updating."
"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."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"The integration needs improvement."
"In new releases, I hope they can support Oracle cloud."
"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
"It has no cloud backup feature. You can't back up anywhere outside of your local network."
"We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"The integration needs improvement. It should be easier for my admins."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a very good return on investment."
"The solution is expensive."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"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."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
"Licensing costs are $300,000 USD yearly, and we pay for three years at a time."
"Licensing costs are monthly."
"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."
"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."
"There's the principal license for Veeam Agent for Linux, and then you need to buy additional licenses for your machines."
"Veeam Agent is one of the cheapest products in the market."
"Price-wise it's good."
