Cons
"I would like to see the pieces that they have put in the web only to be put into the thick client sitting on the desktop client.""Make sure you check your backups on a regular basis. Backups do get missed with this tool, for whatever reason.""The way the filtering goes, if you filter on your view, there is no indication that you have made a selection."

More IDERA SQL Safe Backup Cons →

"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 could be slightly improved.""The GUI has room for improvement.""There is room for improvement in stability.""The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient.""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.""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.

  • More IDERA SQL Safe Backup Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "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."
  • "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's very economical and worth the cost."
  • "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."
