Robert Hedblom - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows for storage optimization and archiving functionality of DocAve Backup is valuable for organizations with large amounts of data
Setting it up, it gets stuff happening that's easy, but you need to be very specific on what type of data you should migrate, and why, and when, and so on and so forth. So it's not like the cloud backup feature, which is two minutes. It's a bit more to take into consideration because when you move the data, it's out of the tenant. It's not an issue getting it back to the tenant; that's super easy. But it's better to do it right from the beginning. So it takes a bit more thought power.

Provides fast access to files and offers a reliable backup solution without compatibility issues
Versioning control helps speed up data recovery by providing easy access to previous versions of files. This is particularly useful when moving backups to off-site storage and deploying them quickly during installations. My experience with Synology Backup's security features includes partitioning for production environments, regular scans for new threats, and support for multifactor authentication. Password security is also emphasized, meeting basic security requirements. Before choosing Synology, consider its sensitivity in your network infrastructure, especially for critical backup and storage tasks. Prioritize security, including testing and recovery procedures, and evaluate the device's performance to ensure it meets your needs effectively. Overall, I would rate Synology C2 Backup as an eight out of ten.
