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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The SaaS feature of AvePoint Cloud Backup is very strong."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"For me personally, the best feature in AvePoint Cloud Backup is mostly its ease of use."
"It is the best product in the market for Office 365 backup, and our customers are satisfied with it."
"The initial setup is super easy."
"The backup and recovery functionalities of the product are very useful."
"It is the only product in the market that offers platform backup."
"I rate the overall solution a 9 out of 10."
"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
 

Cons

"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It is not a traditional restore process and it is somewhat limited in what we can do."
"The configuration could be made easier."
"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."
"It would be beneficial to have a more optimal Google Backup for larger environments."
"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."
"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."
"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
 

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."
"I am not sure, but I believe that the cost is $7 USD per user."
"I would say that the pricing policy of the product is flexible and good."
"The platform is more expensive than other vendors."
"I rate the product's price a nine on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"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."
