Mohd Azhar Uddin - PeerSpot reviewer
An admin tool that admins use to migrate data if there is an M&A or internal request to migrate content
Sometimes when using an SQL database, the solution creates issues with retrieving information or keeping the connection established. However, that happens for longer migrations when I'm migrating ten terabytes of data or more than that, and not in ideal cases. I rate AvePoint FLY an eight out of ten for stability.
Dieudonné-Nsabimana - PeerSpot reviewer
Integration with other services has improved migration efficiency
A valuable feature is the schema conversion tool, which allows me to migrate databases, for example, from Oracle to Postgres. The service is fully managed by AWS, which makes it better to use the migration services. It is beneficial to enable phased migration, and the service offers easy integration with other AWS services. The integration of AWS Application Migration Service with AWS makes it a good tool for working with AWS services.

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

Pros

"The solution is very straightforward to use. It's not overly difficult to figure out."
"I would rate the stability a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature of AvePoint FLY is its ability to install or use multiple client servers using a single master server and balance the migration load depending on our needs."
"The initial setup phase can be described as a very user-friendly one...The solution's technical support was good since they responded very promptly."
"The most valuable feature is the live, block-to-block replication."
"I rate AWS Application Migration Service a nine out of ten overall."
"The CloudEndure feature is most valuable because it is user friendly and very simple."
"Live Migration's best feature is that it's free."
"AWS Application Migration Service allows us to perform migrations with minimal downtime, which is crucial for our operations."
"The product is reasonably priced."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the solution's support a ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"Right now, AvePoint FLY doesn’t provide us with help to identify the size of the mailed items for a certain period."
"Technical support is lacking in that they don't seem to respond. I do a lot of research myself. I can't rely on them."
"The solution's reporting could be improved because it does not have a lot of reporting capabilities."
"The initial setup is a little bit more complex than setting up Cloud Backup for Avepoint."
"Live Migration has some issues with target setups."
"I think it is important to have more logs, and more details would be great because we have just logged on the client's side, but there weren't many details on the cloud."
"I do not see any improvements required for the CloudEndure."
"We would like to have a disaster recovery feature included in this solution."
"The schema conversion is not included in the document management services itself. Complex formations require additional steps."
"One drawback to using CloudEndure is that the default is to give one small, lightweight server, which is created in the cloud."
"There are some features in the Migration Factory that could be integrated directly into AWS Application Migration Service."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The prices of the tool are neither low nor high, so it can be considered a moderately-priced product."
"AvePoint FLY's pricing is good enough for its capabilities."
"We are using the trial version and find it to be costly. It's something around $20. With another attachment, the cost was lower, at about $3. However, you seem to have to buy more licenses than you need."
"There are two different ways of licensing Avepoint FLY. So either you can use set up a licensing form based on objects which we do not recommend because then it will be more costly. So what you do is you set up the migration based on the users instead."
"Live Migration's price is good."
"For me, the price of the tool is cheap and very good. It is flexible pricing since you pay just for what you use."
