Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 most promising feature of the product is data security policies, which make it simpler to include compliance processes.""It is the best product in the market for Office 365 backup, and our customers are satisfied with it.""It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup.""The product's initial setup phase was super easy.""It is a very good and stable solution...With AvePoint's support, our experience has been exceptional""The initial setup is super easy.""The most valuable features are the email backup and the SharePoint backup."

"We frequently use the granular restore option for when our users accidentally delete files or to recover emails from mailboxes. We have found that to be a must-have feature and it comes with the solution at no extra cost.""We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten.""All of the features are fantastic and also the management from Microsoft dealing with multiple machines is great. The whole package is excellent for me.""VM backup and the item level recovery are the most valuable features.""It is an excellent product. It is easy to deploy, stable, and fast. Their support is excellent.""Ability to restore to any host.""The most valuable feature of Altaro VM Backup is its ability to backup and restore various types of data, including Active Directory, application servers, and SQL Server databases.""Valuable features for us include quick recovery, compression, and deduplication."

Cons
"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.""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.""I would like to see improvements in the tool's initial seed. The initial seed of around 10 TB of SharePoint data took 45 days to complete.""The restoration could be faster.""It is challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it.""Some customers choose other backup solutions because AvePoint is Office 365 and CRM backup system, but they have other backup needs for Azure and so on. Such customers often choose another backup solution instead of AvePoint."

More AvePoint Cloud Backup Cons →

"The initial set up was complex, and I was not able to do the set up myself.""If you look into the performance of a virtual machine and you look to the performance of the physical machine, the correlation between these is totally unclear.""The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer.""Availability of physical server backup would be an added advantage.""Improvement areas for Altaro VM Backup include enhancing backup and deduplication solutions for continuous operation and offering an all-in-one solution for hardware backup.""Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on.""To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time.""Replication is not fast, the GUI could be more user-friendly, and technical support is lacking in Iran."
