Using the app is straightforward with easy buttons to click on.
Customer Service: We didn't contact their customer service at any point because the backup and recovery process is pretty straightforward. But they have a customer support email and phone just in case. Technical Support: CloudAlly can be used by a non-techie person because it's simple. We didn't contact the technical support, but it's available for any user who may encounter a problem.
Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user-friendly interface of CloudAlly significantly enhances data protection."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
"The way they handle the backups is pretty good."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
 

Cons

"CloudAlly can improve in the areas of reporting, especially regarding backup statistics and backup failures presented in pie graphs and charts."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
"This solution would benefit from the inclusion of an on-premise backup feature, as currently, they are offering everything in the cloud."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"The support team generally needs to be more proactive with technical and general suggestions."
"To make Druva inSync better, they can implement additional DLP."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"The pricing is good."
