Automated backups have transformed our multi-account recovery and now streamline compliance reporting
While N2WS has served us well, there are areas for improvement. The user interface feels somewhat dated and could benefit from modernization. Navigation between sections could be more intuitive, and the dashboard design could be more streamlined compared to contemporary AWS tools. The initial setup process has a steeper learning curve than we’d prefer, especially for complex multi-account configurations. More guided setup wizards would help new team members get up to speed faster. Reporting capabilities could be more granular, particularly around cost optimization metrics and backup performance analytics. Currently, we need to gather information from multiple screens to get comprehensive insights. For future releases, we’d value enhanced integration with AWS native services like Config and CloudTrail for better compliance reporting. More advanced scheduling options that adjust based on application load would also be beneficial. Better support for newer AWS services as they’re released would help us maintain comprehensive coverage as our infrastructure evolves. Additionally, native integration with popular ITSM tools beyond email notifications would improve our workflow automation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"Asigra's agent-less capabilities make it a very convenient solution to implement."
"Asigra is a cost effective solution and very competitive in the market."
"The solution has been very stable."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"N2WS is a perfect backup solution for AWS EC2 instances and VPC backups, and it has made our backup process and monitoring simple and effective."
"The backup and recovery are the most valuable features, so our developers can work with confidence."
"N2W has positively impacted our organization by assisting us in areas of cost savings when compared to other tools available, and it has also given us an extra layer of protection."
"N2WS is a powerful solution with a rich set of features designed to address even the most complex backup and disaster recovery requirements."
"N2W has positively impacted our organization by allowing us to conduct recovery drills and share information with our customers about our improvements."
"This is one of the most stable products that I have ever seen."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
 

Cons

"The UI could do with a facelift."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The GUI isn't the slickest, because Asigra has opted to focus on features and capability over a shiny interface."
"The management could be a bit better."
"They should have 24/7 support for customers in different time zones. They are slow to respond to requests, and I get the impression that the ServiceDesk is overloaded."
"Asigra's implementation and day-to-day costs are very high; necessary features can significantly increase the cost of implementation."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
"It could be improved to include disaster recovery in cross accounts for Azure in upcoming releases."
"Deployment is one area that could use improvement."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delete, to move, and to classify the object file in the backup directory at the storage feature level."
"I believe onboarding could be easier. While the platform supports multi-account architectures, the initial process for new customer accounts could be more automated."
"One area where we would appreciate improvement is support for additional AWS native services, such as Lambda function backups and S3 beyond archive."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
"It's very economical and worth the cost."
"The pricing and licensing on AWS is fine, because you can do it for smaller tiers depending on your number of instances, so it's not that scary."
"It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
"The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
"AWS adds more features and offer things for free, or cheaply. Therefore, we will be evaluating AWS Data Lifecycle Manager, because it will probably do backups. Thus, make sure the product that you are using is competitive or adds more value than AWS."
