Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 3, 2024

Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery and AvePoint Cloud Backup compete in the backup and disaster recovery category. Infrascale appears to have the upper hand in disaster recovery capabilities, while AvePoint excels in granular data restoration for Office 365.

Features: Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery offers quick VM boot-up, flexibility to spin up locally or in the cloud, and Critical Server Insurance for protecting diverse server environments. Its management through the Infrascale Dashboard is efficient for technical users. Alternatively, AvePoint Cloud Backup emphasizes granular data restoration, immutability, and comprehensive restore functionalities vital for Office 365 environments.

Room for Improvement: Infrascale users highlight issues with bandwidth limitations, license transitions, and appliance handling, suggesting enhanced SSD support and unified cloud management. AvePoint could improve licensing clarity and backup processes, with a desire for more detailed reports and streamlined configurations.

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.

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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For me personally, the best feature in AvePoint Cloud Backup is mostly its ease of use."

"The SaaS feature of AvePoint Cloud Backup is very strong."

"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."

"The most promising feature of the product is data security policies, which make it simpler to include compliance processes."

"The most valuable features are the email backup and the SharePoint backup."

"Overall, this is a good product and I can recommend it to others."

"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."

"The initial setup is super easy."

More AvePoint Cloud Backup pros

"There is a great return on investment with Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery, as I have saved a significant amount of time and money. I need fewer employees to support maintenance requirements, alerts monitoring, and recovery requests."

"Given that we are in the hurricane belt, the spin-up of replicated servers in the cloud is among the most valuable features, because if our site goes down we can just connect to the cloud appliance, spin up the servers, and we are good to go."

"The overall ease of use and ease of management of the solution using the Infrascale dashboard is excellent. I'd rate it 10 out of 10 because the dashboard is very simple to use. For someone with a technical background, it's a wonderful piece of software to be using in a cloud environment. But if you're not technical, then it might be a problem. It could be confusing for non-technical people. If you don't know what you're doing, you could kind of screw it up. Any human with two brain cells can do it. It's like anything else. So, once you train a human, they're good. Anybody can do it. Anybody with a competent brain can use it and go with a little bit of technical skill. It might be confusing in the beginning, but once you're trained up and you've used it a little bit, like anything else in your life, it'll be easy. They'll come as normal."

"It works a treat and does the job perfectly."

"The overall ease of use and management of the solution using the Infrascale Dashboard is very good. We haven't had any issues. It is easy to learn. Most of our techs who deal with backups are usually up and running with the dashboard within a day or so. They don't have a lot of buried features where you have to dig through things to get to the resolution. It is pretty self-explanatory."

"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is simple to use."

"The Infrascale Dashboard is very easy to understand, has a good overview, and gives me access to all my appliances without having to have a local VPN connection to the individual clients. It makes it very easy to find my way around."

"Overall, this product is really solid and they're a very good company to work with."

Cons

"Some customers choose other backup solutions because AvePoint is Office 365 and CRM backup system, but they have other backup needs for Azure and so on. Such customers often choose another backup solution instead of AvePoint."

"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."

"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."

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."

"For improvement, AvePoint can provide details on how the tool's backup scope works."

"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 challenging for small or medium-sized businesses to purchase it."

"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."

More AvePoint Cloud Backup cons

"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection."

"User interface and navigation are also not that good."

"In terms of overage, or outgrowing capacity with backups, I have an issue."

"I think they could increase security. I would like to see more features for the section on the viruses and maybe another in reference to two-factor authentication."

"The problem is that sometimes you can use a lot of the bandwidth to upload files."

"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."

"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."

More Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing part of the solution is based on a subscription model, which is based on the number of users or storage capacity."

"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."

"The platform is more expensive than other vendors."

"I would say that the pricing policy of the product is flexible and good."

"I rate the product's price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."

"I am not sure, but I believe that the cost is $7 USD per user."

"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."

"You get unlimited clients and buy a bucket of space. In addition to the standard fees there were setup fees."

"The licensing is based on how much data you have plus what appliances you need."

"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."

"Pricing of the product could be improved. It definitely makes it a harder sell. They will usually end up getting close to the price we need, but I have to go through everybody to get the price reduced. Their list pricing is significantly higher than that of other solutions."

"The pricing is fair, and they are interested in working with MSPs as part of their market."

"They are incredibly fair and willing to work with their partners to make their pricing work for both partners and the end users."
