A scalable and reliable product that is good for data security and disaster recovery
We use the tool for our Microsoft 365 customers for their backup of Teams, OneDrive and SharePoint data. We also use it for data security and disaster recovery.  The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable. The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft…
George Philippakos - PeerSpot reviewer
Backup process and monitoring become simple and effective while seamless instance recovery and cost optimization ensure business continuity
Policy creation is straightforward, with automatic backups of new resources enabled through tagging. Instance recovery is seamless, whether within the same VPC or across different VPCs. File-level restores are intuitive and easy to manage, while full VPC backups provide critical protection and peace of mind in the event of a disaster. In addition, lifecycle management and automated transitions to lower-cost storage tiers have been instrumental in optimizing costs while meeting compliance and retention requirements. The ability to create immutable backups further strengthens our business continuity strategy by ensuring an additional layer of protection against accidental or malicious data loss.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the AI with threat detection that can detect ransomware and restore it."
"The most valuable feature of Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup is it's synchronized well with Microsoft 365. Additionally, the solution is able to identify through Microsoft Defender if there are viruses and will provide a notification."
"The product is deployable anywhere. It is also scalable and reliable."
"The initial setup is pretty simple."
"The product's most valuable feature is the backup retention policy."
"Overall, I would rate Barracuda Cloud-to-Cloud Backup a nine out of ten."
"The product enables us to restore lost files."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"We had a ransomware event in 2023, and we were able to recover every machine with minimal effort."
"Having multiple policies and schedules handled for me takes the burden out of managing backups across multiple departments."
"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 restore functionality is very easy to use and manage."
"N2WS is a powerful solution with a rich set of features designed to address even the most complex backup and disaster recovery requirements."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The initial setup is easy."
 

Cons

"Locating and recovering files can be confusing."
"The solution may be improved by allowing integration with other platforms."
"They should adapt to new parameters as the market grows."
"The tool does not support Google Support. I have only Microsoft 365 customers. I don't have a good solution for my G-suite customers."
"Navigating through folders and finding files can be a bit slow, taking up to three to five seconds between clicks, which feels slow compared to the speed in SharePoint or a browser."
"We needed assistance with the implementation of the solution from the vendor. The process could be easier."
"What would be great should be either a guaranteed restore or a guaranteed restoring speed."
"They could expand their offering to include Lambda function backups and other native AWS services, as these can be recreated through CloudFormation or Terraform."
"I would like to see native support for more AWS services beyond EC2 and EBS, such as full coverage of RDS, DynamoDB, and Redshift."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"Improved disaster recovery options and expanded multicloud support are two areas where N2WS has already made significant advancements in the latest version."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable compared to other products."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"This is a cost-effective solution."
"The product's pricing is fair and competitive."
"The product's pricing is based on the customer's needs because every customer is different."
"It's very economical and worth the cost."
"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."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
"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."
"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."
