"It's not easy to scale it."
"The ability to back up both physical and virtual appliances under one roof."

"The problems that we face are often related to the customer's network, although sometimes there are problems with the software, such as an error in the configuration."

"On the cloud side, security could always be better."
"In the span of six months, maintenance is done at least twice and you are told that it is coming up, with apologies for the inconvenience. It's a distraction, and it interferes with the backup schedule."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."

"There are times when the backups are slow. A faster backup would be better."

"I would like to see more storage options for the free version."
"No appliance update notifications."
"In terms of improvement, the UI, especially in the recovery section, is unclear about which repository it uses."
