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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"Clumio gave us a genuinely isolated vault that sits outside our AWS Organization's blast radius."
"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."
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"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."
"Clumio proved to be the most cost-effective option."
"pCloud is one of my favourite cloud storage services that help me to store and share important images, videos, and files."
"I like the interface and that they add new features all the time, but I use it mainly for the sync option which keeps my files up to date."
"I trust pCloud to store my business and personal files like photos, videos, university books, etc. pCloud is always there when I need it."
"The pCloud sync server client has worked well in the trial version."
"Excellent service."
"I can access my files from all kind of devices and operating systems. I do not need any more external flash drives. I can even edit my files directly in the cloud using pCloud Drive."
"After a lot of tests, I found pCloud to be the most secure and affordable solution for independent businesses like myself."
"The sync process has been quick, and the software correctly maintains the same file structure as in File Explorer."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"The credit system can be confusing, but if you talk to your account manager, they can help alleviate those concerns."
"It would be beneficial to show when backups are available and to receive alerts if there are any issues with the backups."
"We are still exploring the areas where improvements might be needed."
"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
"More alignment with Clumio and Commvault branding would have helped us understand the product better during the discovery phase."
"Integration with third-party software mostly. Also, online file editing option for documents."
"Sometimes the desktop sync can take some moment before starting the sync process. Also, pCloud should improve their customer care service."
"I would really like to be able to search entire documents."
"I would like to be able to edit the files at the same time with the others, but I understand that this is not possible with the cloud solutions in general."
"I'd like to be able to edit my files via the mobile device without downloading the file on my local space."
"My recommendation is that support could be better, even though sometimes things can be technically complicated."
