Ransomware recovery has become validated and protects critical workloads across multiple accounts
The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy. Consolidating those or offering a slimmer permission set for read-only backup (versus full restore) would help with security review friction. Cross-account restore into a target account still requires manual steps for KMS. If Clumio could handle re-encrypting with the target account's CMK during restore rather than requiring Multi-Region Key pre-staging, that would save significant preparation time. Also, the restore API could surface better progress telemetry since right now, large RDS restores are a bit of a black box until they complete or fail. Finally, DocumentDB and MongoDB Atlas backup support would round out our stack nicely.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform's most effective feature is quickly recovering virtual instances into a separate environment."
"We have been able to safely and securely save our backups off of AWS."
"Working with the Clumio/Commvault team has been a very good experience."
"Clumio proved to be the most cost-effective option."
"Clumio gave us a genuinely isolated vault that sits outside our AWS Organization's blast radius."
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"It has improved our disaster recovery footprint; previously, backups were only stored on premises, and having an offsite backup improves our reliability and security."
 

Cons

"They could add more intelligence features in the workflow through automation."
"It would be beneficial to show when backups are available and to receive alerts if there are any issues with the backups."
"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The additional cost is cloud storage, which the public cloud provider charges."
