Regarding customer support, as this is a very new product and relatively new in the market, I am not sure how long they have been around, but there seems to be a lack of understanding with the support team. They take a lot of time and change priorities as well.

Previously, we relied on native AWS backup mechanisms and manual processes. While those approaches provide basic protection, they require more administrative efforts for monitoring and reporting across all accounts. Nimesa provided a more centralized and automated approach and improved operational efficiency, which is why we switched.

I have not seen a return on investment in terms of money saved as it is an additional product. However, compared to native solutions, it is saving costs through optimized storage utilization for our backup policy based on the retention we need and the frequency of backups. Automated backup policies and protection, along with aware backups, helped us. In this case, operationally, it also reduced the operational burden with respect to alerting and improved operational efficiency.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is straightforward with nothing specific to note.

Before choosing Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS, I evaluated other options, including AWS native backup and Veeam.

The advice I would give to others looking into Nimesa Backup and Recovery for AWS is that if an organization wants to clearly define their recovery objective and recovery time objective before implementing and align backup policy accordingly, I recommend integrating Nimesa into operational monitoring processes and conducting regular recovery testing to validate business continuity requirements. For an organization with multiple AWS accounts and critical workloads, Nimesa can help standardize backup operations and improve visibility, which can also help reduce the operational burden. I rate this product an eight overall.
