Pros
"Reporting is one of the key elements that are valuable for C-suite executives. In terms of monitoring, the solution provides comprehensive details into ongoing processes, flagging issues and warnings as necessary.""It is an easy-to-use solution.""RDS backup is one of the most crucial components of any client's cloud environment, so we generally use that. Additionally, we store EBS snapshots in S3.""The replication in the recovery region is the most valuable feature.""We can directly back up EC2 instances in AWS without using any third-party applications.""The advantage that AWS Backup has over competitors is that it's very simple.""The most valuable feature is the daily incremental site backup.""What I like about AWS Backup is its simple approach to a complex problem."

Cons
"When it comes to encrypting data, it is not so convenient.""The service disconnects a lot.""The notifications on the backup and on the mobile app could be more useful. If they could arrange notes or notifications properly and offer services for managing it in our region, it would be helpful for us.""It requires a lot of time to connect the snapshot, identify the files, and restore a single file manually.""This backup tool does the full backup of the entire snapshot server. I would like to have the option to not do the full server backup.""If AWS Backup were a hybrid solution that also supported on-premises backups then it would be very helpful, especially if you are doing a migration to the cloud.""AWS Backup could improve because you cannot use Glacier or anything but EFS.""Its cost could be better than a few of its competitors."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "We don't use a lot of space, only approximately 900 GB, so the price is reasonable. For standing, it's okay. We normally do a payment to SSML, and they are the ones who pay over there. It is around $100 monthly."
  • "There is a lot of flexibility with the services and pricing. The price is reasonable when compared to other products. This is very good for us."
  • "There are no licensing costs for AWS Backup. You pay only for the amount of backup storage you use and then the data transferred between regions. Overall AWS Backup is priced reasonably."
  • "Our customers pay a monthly AWS fee that includes the AWS Backup service."
  • "The solution's price is reasonable."
  • "Price-wise, I rate the solution a six out of ten. One only has to pay for the storage cost of AWS solutions, which is the standard cost provided by AWS."
  • "Its price is much cheaper than some vendors but more expensive than others."
  • "The pricing is decent."
