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 rollback features for smooth IT operations and an easy setup

We are using Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to take backups of shop floor PCs. I use it for clients locally, particularly for critical machines. It is also used globally for server-side backups and includes scheduling features like taking ten backups every Sunday when the factory is closed. This…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"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."

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

"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"

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

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

"Technical support is very good."

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

More MSP360 Backup pros

"The pricing is reasonable."

"The most valuable aspect of Veeam is its stability."

"The solution is stable."

"It is easy to set up. You can use some functions to make sure you get the maximum bandwidth to do the backup. It has an option to bypass Microsoft network limitations and things like that."

"The solution is stable and reliable."

"The most valuable feature is the built-in integration with Office 365, which helps us protect email accounts and servers. We use it on virtual servers on the cloud with Azure, or we can use an agent on physical servers."

"Once you set it up, it works very well. You do not have to go back to reconfigure it– it is very easy to use"

"The solution is stable."

Cons

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

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

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

"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 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."

"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 product could be more user-friendly."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"The installation could always be a little bit easier. You do need to be a bit technical."

"You can't really edit. For example, if you have created a backup for a user, you can't drill down on a granular level during the backup. You have to back up the mailbox completely. That's it. It would be helpful if you could at least go inside the mailboxes to choose what you want."

"While Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 is a highly convenient product, there is room for improvement in its integration with Microsoft 365."

"I would like Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 to increase the speed to reduce the backup time."

"They should improve the backup and restoration time."

"In some instances, a customer is not necessarily backing up Microsoft 365. For instance, they might be backing up a large Oracle database. It would be nice if they could tweak it to compress the file, so it's easier to transfer a huge file."

"Technical support could be improved."

"Microsoft currently saves only two months of conversation history, and it would be better if Veeam could focus on backing up more than two months of conversation data."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"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."

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

"The solution is expensive."

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

"Its pricing needs improvement."

More MSP360 Backup pricing and cost advice

"Veeam Backup for Office 365 is a low-priced solution, so it is scalable and is priced for the market, comparable to other solutions."

"This is not a stand-alone product and requires a standard Veeam license for your organization in addition to the cost of the solution."

"Its cost is pretty high. I would rate it a three out of five in terms of pricing."

"We decided on Altaro because, from the point of view of the total cost, Altaro looks cheaper than Veeam. Veeam has a lot of costs that are not clear when you start it, which makes it less flexible than Altaro, but only after half a year, you can be really sure that you made a good decision."

"There is a license required for this solution and we pay annually."

"Veaam Backup is licensed per mailbox, which customers like because it's per user and so they don't have to pay for shared mailboxes."

"For the number of users and amount of storage you receive, it is not expensive."

"I'm not sure about the price, but I think it could be lower."
