Vivek_Jaiswal - PeerSpot reviewer
Security Engineer at LTI Mindtree
Cloud backups have strengthened ransomware recovery and now protect critical business data
I see several areas where Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery could be improved. First is the architectural design and configuration, along with operational maturity, as well as security integration. The performance of support can definitely be improved with easier on-call support features for P1 and P2 incidents. Getting quick support from the vendor during major recoveries or disasters would be greatly appreciated. Additionally, improving the strength of ransomware protections, addressing critical gaps in deployments, enforcing backup immutability policies, and making disaster recovery testing routine instead of an ad hoc process are important. Validating that I can quickly recover data should be a priority, and improved runbooks or operational maturity platforms would be beneficial for data recovery from critical incidents.
CONRAD FORREST - PeerSpot reviewer

The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support
MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The ease of use is valuable. It is user-friendly. Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution."
"Get Infrascale and talk to their team. They will support you, and they will make you the happiest customer out there."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to boot locally, as well as in Infrascale's cloud. This means that we can either do on-site failover or failover to their cloud."
"The experience that we have had with this product is generally good."
"For me, Infrascale had the best package to offer to my customers, including features, pricing, implementation, and support; everything that comprises the total solution."
"Its Critical Server Insurance feature for protecting physical and virtual servers, including Windows, Linux, VMware, and Hyper-V is mandatory for me and it makes me happy. If I had a backup solution that didn't do that, it would not be a backup solution and would not be any good."
"From a backup and disaster recovery perspective, it has been a night and day difference."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is simple to use."
"Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"The initial setup is very easy. It's not overly complex."
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup."
 

Cons

"There is room for improvement by making the interface a little more intuitive when navigating to recover flat files or an old server."
"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection. It is hard for them to deploy a lot of different hardware options. Depending on footprint size and overall capabilities, that is where there could be some flexibility in some cases. However, it is not a deal-breaker."
"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection."
"In terms of what I would like to see, it would be to make the solution available across multiple clouds."
"They can always make the GUI a little bit nicer, the interface level a bit better. There's always room for improvement."
"Their margin from what they're wholesale and their MSRP is kind of tight for people who have to manage it."
"They set me up as a vendor, not as a client. So sometimes I end up in the wrong portal and I'm doing vendor things instead of client things, and I didn't realize that right away. Once I figured it out I just changed my favorites on my desktop to go to the client-side."
"One of the significant drawbacks of it is due to the fact that we're using two devices to manage the same vCenter, or virtualization environment, and they don't talk to each other. That means I can't easily see what VMs are already being protected. If I'm on Infrascale device "A" and I have protected these VMs, when I go over to device "B," I can't see that those VMs are already covered."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."
"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."
"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is super competitive. It is worth taking a look at it from a licensing and pricing perspective."
"Infrascale's pricing, to me, was outstanding and was one of the major factors in my decision to go with Infrascale... My customer had a different solution before and his monthly payment was three times as much as the payment he now has with Infrascale."
"The appliances have different prices because of storage, size, and memory. For example, the older machines support more virtual machines, whereas the new one only supports one virtual machine. As we have purchased the later appliances, they have probably been a little bit more expensive because they have to be good enough to keep the business running if the physical server goes down. We learned our lesson from the one that went down when we tried to run products and it wasn't quick enough."
"The pricing is pretty good and competitive with the market. The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others."
"I appreciate their pricing. We went for this solution for its pricing."
"The licensing is based on how much data you have plus what appliances you need."
"The licensing structure was changed some time ago and it's a lot more efficient and the price points are a lot better. They're improving and heading in the right direction."
"They are incredibly fair and willing to work with their partners to make their pricing work for both partners and the end users."
"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."
"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."
"The solution is expensive."
"We have a very good return on investment."
"Its pricing needs improvement."
"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
