Senior Software Engineer at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
Ransomware recovery has become validated and protects critical workloads across multiple accounts
The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy. Consolidating those or offering a slimmer permission set for read-only backup (versus full restore) would help with security review friction. Cross-account restore into a target account still requires manual steps for KMS. If Clumio could handle re-encrypting with the target account's CMK during restore rather than requiring Multi-Region Key pre-staging, that would save significant preparation time. Also, the restore API could surface better progress telemetry since right now, large RDS restores are a bit of a black box until they complete or fail. Finally, DocumentDB and MongoDB Atlas backup support would round out our stack nicely.

"Technical support is great."
"I have experience with the technical team of the product, and I feel that they offer good support."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that its console itself is user-friendly."

"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
