Axel Peter Brox - PeerSpot reviewer
Hospitality Specialist at Bechtle
Backup has become straightforward for our clients but deployment insights are still limited
Azure is quite a broad topic, so it is really difficult to give a straightforward answer to that question. Easy deployment for easy configurations is straightforward, but you can make it as difficult and complex as you can within Azure.It also depends on the actual environment. In most cases that we are involved in, it is between two and five people.I am overall satisfied with the pricing and licensing policy of AvePoint, as pricing compared to other products is competitive. I would rate this review as a seven.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Disaster recovery is good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"It covers the need to block threats, investigate incidents, and ensure disaster recovery. This approach aligns well with current cybersecurity trends."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"The customer service and support are really good."
"From a security standpoint, it provides robust protection to prevent system crashes and data loss."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"Stability is a ten. No issues, no performance drops, and no crashes."
"I rate the overall solution a 9 out of 10."
"The recovery options in Microsoft 365 are not adequate and it does not help to recover data from the recycle bin that is older than 90 days. The solution has made us more efficient and helps to recover data that is older than 90 days."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"Overall, this is a good product and I can recommend it to others."
"It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup."
"For me personally, the best feature in AvePoint Cloud Backup is mostly its ease of use."
"The SaaS feature of AvePoint Cloud Backup is very strong."
"The most valuable features are the email backup and the SharePoint backup."
 

Cons

"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"Technical support needs improvement. They are too slow to respond, and when it comes to backups, it's critical to deal with issues quickly."
"Not many people know about this product, so they may need to concentrate more on marketing."
"I would like to see more mature XDR and EDR features. Additionally, for backups, I would like more replication options beyond the current VMXI replication."
"Support could be improved, and awareness is important."
"I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The tool needs to have better protection. The tool should be also able to take backups while users are offline and upload to the cloud whenever the internet connection is restored or if there is a good bandwidth."
"I keep submitting a request for more flexible reporting. I'd like to create custom reports in my own way, rather than just combining the pre-defined modules."
"Some proactive alerts or emails are not currently available."
"It is not a traditional restore process and it is somewhat limited in what we can do."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"The restoration could be faster."
"It is challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it."
"For me, it is very difficult to say how AvePoint Cloud Backup can be improved because I am not working on those implementation projects."
"The component in the product that can be improved revolves around the area where the tool should focus on providing more of a custom touch to the policies."
"For improvement, AvePoint can provide details on how the tool's backup scope works."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
