A reliable backup solution that needs to incorporate a flexible pricing model
We use Boxafe for backup.  I like the tool's reliability. Its price is also cheap, and it gets delivered in two days.  Boxafe's pricing policy should be more flexible.  I have been working with the product for seven years.  The product is stable.  I rate Boxafe's scalability an eight out of…

Secure backups have simplified compliance and now provide immutable protection for cloud workloads
The best features that Clumio offers are the ability to know when a backup has completed, to know how to restore both files at the file level and also restore EBS backups, point-in-time restores, as well as snapshots. Clumio has positively impacted our organization by providing us with the peace of mind of knowing that all of our EC2 instances are securely backed up. This peace of mind has translated into measurable outcomes as we adhere to NIST 800 compliance, and with that, we need immutable backups and the ability to have backups that do not exist within our existing tenants. Clumio fixes that problem for us.
