Axel Peter Brox - PeerSpot reviewer
Hospitality Specialist at Bechtle
Backup has become straightforward for our clients but deployment insights are still limited
Azure is quite a broad topic, so it is really difficult to give a straightforward answer to that question. Easy deployment for easy configurations is straightforward, but you can make it as difficult and complex as you can within Azure.It also depends on the actual environment. In most cases that we are involved in, it is between two and five people.I am overall satisfied with the pricing and licensing policy of AvePoint, as pricing compared to other products is competitive. I would rate this review as a seven.

"It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup."
"The backup and recovery functionalities of the product are very useful."
"Overall, this is a good product and I can recommend it to others."
"The recovery options in Microsoft 365 are not adequate and it does not help to recover data from the recycle bin that is older than 90 days. The solution has made us more efficient and helps to recover data that is older than 90 days."
"For me personally, the best feature in AvePoint Cloud Backup is mostly its ease of use."
 

Cons

"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"We'd like to see more DLP, data loss prevention."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."
"There could be some changes done to the action page to simplify it."
"Acronis Backup Cloud can improve by having fewer updates and patches to the solution. Additionally, should improve the functions that already exist in the solution rather than add new ones."
"I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it."
"The configuration could be made easier."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"It is challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it."
"The component in the product that can be improved revolves around the area where the tool should focus on providing more of a custom touch to the policies."
"For me, it is very difficult to say how AvePoint Cloud Backup can be improved because I am not working on those implementation projects."
"It is not a traditional restore process and it is somewhat limited in what we can do."
"I would like to see improvements in the tool's initial seed. The initial seed of around 10 TB of SharePoint data took 45 days to complete."
"AvePoint Cloud Backup's pricing could be lower and more flexible. Particularly, when dealing with smaller customers or more minor businesses, obtaining competitive pricing for bundles rather than on a one-by-one basis remains challenging."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not a cheap product."
"I would rate the product's pricing a seven out of ten. The solution costs around 75 USD for 1TB per month."

"It costs a little bit more than other competitors in the market."
"It is very good for many of my customers in the banking and finance segments. The price isn't a problem there, but in some other industries, people ask for a cheaper solution. When the price is an issue for the customer, we recommend Veeam, Metallic."
