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

"Supports peer-to-peer backup using Minio, which has allowed us to easily pre-seed and maintain an off-site backup within driving distance, making tactical recovery of accidental file deletions easy."
"Technical support is very good."
"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."
"I liked the way the product worked, its flexibility on the storage and cost, and the way it was supported."
"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."
"It's simple to use."
"I like the incremental backups and their failover."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward."
"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 technical support is good."
"The user interface is good."
"The Veeam Backup and Replication Suite is very user-friendly."
"Veeam Agent for Linux works like a charm and after-sales support is amazing, so I can only say that the product is very new."
 

Cons

"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 solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"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 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."
"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."
"Technical support is okay. They could be more customer-friendly."
"I rate Veeam Agent for Linus six out of 10."
"At the moment, this solution is not good enough."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"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."
"It could use deduplication features."
"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."
"There is a compatibility issue with HCI."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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