A backup solution with better reporting and easy configuration
We were looking to replace our backup software and started doing a POC. During the POC, we realized the benefits of Clumio, especially given our small team. We always look for solutions that are easily manageable and not cumbersome. Clumio offers an easy interface, is simple to set up, and is easy to maintain. It provides a way to get daily reports directly from the software. Clumio has a straightforward setup; it involves deploying an OVF agent and connecting it to the cloud. Once connected, it begins backing up to the cloud. You can easily go to the cloud console and specify which servers need backups, and it starts the process. Different policies can be defined and assigned to servers, making the process much easier. Clumio also sends daily report emails, so every morning, we receive a report detailing what was successfully backed up and what failed. Their support is also good. If a backup fails twice, they proactively open a ticket and contact to resolve the issue.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Clumio has a straightforward setup"
"It is a good product, in regards to performance, as well as data protection."
"Continuous Data Protection is a game-changing technology."
"The ability to offload backup snapshots to the SAN helps with reducing the backup durations."
"Its simplicity and the fact that it just works are most valuable. We kind of set it up and generally forget about it. It does what we need it to do in the background, and it doesn't involve a lot of management."
"I consider the solution's technical support to be excellent, perfect."
"What I like most about this solution are the simplicity and the price-performance ratio."
"This solution is very flexible and user-friendly — it's very good. It's very good with our virtual and physical infrastructure."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to verify that backups are valid."
 

Cons

"They need to improve their SQL backup services"
"Veeam Backup Replication could improve by making the monitoring system free. If I would like to have any monitoring system by Veeam I have to purchase it. It should come free with the solution. They should provide a monitoring system to make the work easier and smooth."
"They need full cloud integration such that an on-premises backup can be offloaded to the cloud for storage."
"The pricing model could be improved. It can be made cheaper."
"When you have some small issues, you should be able to go through it by yourself and solve the issue instead of opening the ticket and waiting for the engineers to troubleshoot."
"I don't see much room for improvement except that the price could be better."
"If you upgrade too quickly, you may have issues."
"The recovery and integration features of Veeam Backup Replication could improve. For example, all VM integration could improve, such as with Hyper-V and VMware."
"Occasionally, in the course of upgrading one's virtualization platform, the backup can be ruined."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The cost should be adressed."
"The pricing of the solution could be reduced."
"I would say that the product is fairly priced."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"The price is a bit high. Licensing type is VMware friendly, so it is easy."
"The subscription-based pricing of Veeam Backup Replication is competitive."
"When it comes to pricing for a backup solution for data centers, you do not care about the price. We just care about the service and want it to be reliable. In terms of subscription, it really makes sense. When you want to use all the functionalities it is good that Veeam did the subscription-based model, this is what gives it the most strength on the price."
"We pay for the license of Veeam Backup Replication on an annual basis. The cost of the license is approximately 70,000 rials. The support and maintenance are included in the price."
