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.

Reliable and issue-free with a helpful onboarding wizard
The solution has been installed on Linux machines.  The solution is issue-free. We are happy with it.  The solution has been stable and reliable.  It is scalable.  My understanding the setup is pretty straightforward and that the onboarding wizard is pretty easy to follow.  I've never had to…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."
"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."
"The solution saved time and money."
"I haven't explored all of what this solution has to offer as I have only been using it for four months, but so far it's good and I would recommend it."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to pick up individual files."
"The initial setup and deployment are easy. It's straightforward."
"Veeam has a "next, next, finish" installer, and the overall deployment is straightforward. The deployment is easy because Veeam is compatible with all our VMware services and VMs. Veeam Backup and Veeam ONE are integrated into vCenter or vSphere site deployments, so we don't need to deploy each server one by one."
"Veeam Agent for Linux works like a charm and after-sales support is amazing, so I can only say that the product is very new."
"We are very satisfied with Veeam's technical support."
"Veeam Agent for Linux is highly stable; we have not had any issues."
 

Cons

"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."
"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."
"The interface could use some updating."
"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 solution's pricing is very high."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"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."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side."
"Scalability, if you are talking about Linux, is good. However, if you need to backup more types of solutions or Unix systems, like HP/UX, AIX, etc., it's not compatible."
"Their technical support could be better. I will often find a solution to a problem before they get back to me."
"The integration needs improvement. It should be easier for my admins."
"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"I rate Veeam Agent for Linus six out of 10."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its pricing needs improvement."
"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."
"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."
"We have a very good return on investment."
"The solution is expensive."
"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."
"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."
"The solution is rather expensive and I think the price is too high."
"Licensing costs are $300,000 USD yearly, and we pay for three years at a time."
"We have purchased a license to use Veeam Agent for Linux and the additional support. The overall cost of Veeam Agent for Linux is expensive."
"Veeam Agent is one of the cheapest products in the market."
"There's the principal license for Veeam Agent for Linux, and then you need to buy additional licenses for your machines."
"It's a subscription based license, which is started on a yearly basis. Currently the licensing is split between three editions: standard, enterprise, and enterprise plus. As long as you check the comparison between the additions and make sure that you have what you need, there are no extra costs with Veeam."
"Licensing costs are monthly."
"The costing is very competitive."
