"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"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 solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
"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."
"It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
"It's very economical and worth the cost."
"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."
