Inexpensive, easy to configure, good support, and it is easy to scale up when needed
The most valuable feature is the interface, which is very nice to work with. Whether you're working on the appliance itself, or you're working on the cloud, it is basically the same interface. It got to the point where when we needed to recover a file, we didn't look at the backup solution anymore. Instead, we went right to the Datto Backupify. Using Backupify took our time to recover from probably four days to 20 minutes. With this device, you're capable of logging into the interface or through an IP address to access the data that is stored on it. Recovery can be just a matter of spinning up a virtual machine or doing a full bare metal recovery, replacing the entire hardware-based server.

Automated backups have protected critical files and restore deleted SharePoint data quickly
The features of Datto SaaS Protection that I have found the most valuable and useful so far include performing a backup every four hours, so I can look at multiple versions of that file and find the most compatible version that I need. There are many choices for the file, making it a nice broad choice. The automated backup feature helps my data protection strategy by giving me confidence that we will not lose any data if there was ever ransomware or if we had someone who was wanting to do harm with our system; we would be able to restore our data. The usefulness of advanced search in Datto SaaS Protection is that I can always find the file that I am after, and it is quick to find files. Datto SaaS Protection's point-in-time restore feature has been effective in recovering data so far; every time I have looked for something, I have been able to find a version for it, and it is soon recovered. It is fast and will recover any size of data. Datto SaaS Protection's reporting tools have helped maintain data protection transparency in my organization by giving me confidence that our data is there and it is being backed up.
