Senior Software Engineer at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
Ransomware recovery has become validated and protects critical workloads across multiple accounts
The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy. Consolidating those or offering a slimmer permission set for read-only backup (versus full restore) would help with security review friction. Cross-account restore into a target account still requires manual steps for KMS. If Clumio could handle re-encrypting with the target account's CMK during restore rather than requiring Multi-Region Key pre-staging, that would save significant preparation time. Also, the restore API could surface better progress telemetry since right now, large RDS restores are a bit of a black box until they complete or fail. Finally, DocumentDB and MongoDB Atlas backup support would round out our stack nicely.

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

"Clumio gave us a genuinely isolated vault that sits outside our AWS Organization's blast radius."
"We have been able to safely and securely save our backups off of AWS."
"Clumio proved to be the most cost-effective option."
"Working with the Clumio/Commvault team has been a very good experience."
"It has improved our disaster recovery footprint; previously, backups were only stored on premises, and having an offsite backup improves our reliability and security."
"We now have the peace of mind knowing that our entire AWS infrastructure is fully backed up into an air-gapped environment."
"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"Infrascale has been great for us and for the relationship with this client."
"Overall, I set it up, configured it, deployed it, and walked away from it; it just chugs away happily."
"Overall, this product is really solid and they're a very good company to work with."
"The recovery of data is the most valuable feature. The software backup, which is just a program that gets installed on a server, can back up to the cloud. You can install that on a server or PC, and that will simply back up a user's files and folders. If it is installed on the server, we just back up the relevant data. Recovering that, if there has been a malicious attack on a business or anything like that, has been invaluable in the past. The good features about that are obviously, if the physical hardware has a problem, then we can utilize the appliance, turn on the virtual machine, and carry on running the business while we put the hardware back and correct the issue."
"The best part is the possibility to spill over the lock-ups to the cloud and the spin-up part."
"The biggest lesson that I have learned from using this product is that we should have switched years before we did."
"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."
 

Cons

"The account onboarding process deploys around 20 IAM roles per account, which is heavy."
"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"It would be beneficial to show when backups are available and to receive alerts if there are any issues with the backups."
"The pricing model that they recently changed to is a little bit complicated, and the biggest area for improvement is a better way of figuring out how to price it."
"The customer was probably down for about three days; this was a very difficult situation for us to be in."
"There could be some room for improvement in the on-premises hardware selection."
"I would like to be able to limit the bandwidth in cases, for example, where we are uploading the backup."
"There is room for improvement by making the interface a little more intuitive when navigating to recover flat files or an old server."
"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."
"Their margin from what they're wholesale and their MSRP is kind of tight for people who have to manage it."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"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."
"It is super competitive. It is worth taking a look at it from a licensing and pricing perspective."
"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 fair, and they are interested in working with MSPs as part of their market."
"You get unlimited clients and buy a bucket of space. In addition to the standard fees there were setup fees."
"I appreciate their pricing. We went for this solution for its pricing."
"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."
"They are incredibly fair and willing to work with their partners to make their pricing work for both partners and the end users."
