Good deduplication, easy to scale, and has good support
iland Secure Cloud Backup is very scalable. If you ask them for more space, they provide you with the pricing, and they make the adjustments on their end. We just recently went from 10 TB to 15 TB and they also do a great job of deduplication, because we were only using 10 TB, even though our SAN is 20TB, we were using 11 TB of it and we have some physical servers that were we are backing up.

Automated backups have transformed our multi-account recovery and now streamline compliance reporting
While N2WS has served us well, there are areas for improvement. The user interface feels somewhat dated and could benefit from modernization. Navigation between sections could be more intuitive, and the dashboard design could be more streamlined compared to contemporary AWS tools. The initial setup process has a steeper learning curve than we’d prefer, especially for complex multi-account configurations. More guided setup wizards would help new team members get up to speed faster. Reporting capabilities could be more granular, particularly around cost optimization metrics and backup performance analytics. Currently, we need to gather information from multiple screens to get comprehensive insights. For future releases, we’d value enhanced integration with AWS native services like Config and CloudTrail for better compliance reporting. More advanced scheduling options that adjust based on application load would also be beneficial. Better support for newer AWS services as they’re released would help us maintain comprehensive coverage as our infrastructure evolves. Additionally, native integration with popular ITSM tools beyond email notifications would improve our workflow automation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"iland is excellent as far as the interface."
"The service itself wasn't bad."
"They have just implemented a Backup and Restore portal that we think is very good."
"Provides easy, one-click functionality and flexible backup policies and schedules for AWS workloads."
"N2WS is a perfect backup solution for AWS EC2 instances and VPC backups, and it has made our backup process and monitoring simple and effective."
"The product is successful with the SMB market."
"Overall, N2WS has transformed our backup operations from a manual, error-prone process into a reliable, automated system that scales with our growing AWS infrastructure."
"The combination of disaster recovery, backups, and scheduling helps us be flexible with our approach to backup, start and stop times while being cost-effective."
"N2W has significantly improved our operational efficiency and our confidence in our business continuity plan."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
"Having multiple policies and schedules handled for me takes the burden out of managing backups across multiple departments."
 

Cons

"I would like to see a better method of backing up Exchange in the cloud."
"They don't support a more current version of VMware."
"The vendor needs to changes billing to work like every other business and stop charging people if they stop using your service."
"One area where we would appreciate improvement is support for additional AWS native services, such as Lambda function backups and S3 beyond archive."
"The process for version upgrades, which sometimes requires deploying a new instance, could be streamlined to allow for a more seamless in-place update."
"The process for version upgrades, which sometimes requires deploying a new instance, could be streamlined to allow for a more seamless in-place update."
"They could expand their offering to include Lambda function backups and other native AWS services, as these can be recreated through CloudFormation or Terraform."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"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."
"It could be improved to include disaster recovery in cross accounts for Azure in upcoming releases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing costs are approximately $12,000 annually."
"iland is affordable."
"Billing practices for iLand are monthly. If you are a business and would like a yearly rate, good luck."
"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."
"The purchasing process through the AWS Marketplace is easy. Just click the button."
"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."
"It has very good pricing per instance and comes with three options, for both small and large environments, to fit your needs."
"It's very economical and worth the cost."
"The price is not cheap, nor is it costly."
