President at MTS Consulting Group, Inc.

The solution provides the ability to backup all types of cloud drives, is inexpensive, and has decent support

MSP360 Backup provides the backup functionality, but we need to provide the storage component. We can use Azure, AWS, or another provider, but we need to choose the storage provider and create a bucket to store our data. The vendor is making changes to improve the functionality of the service and the separation of storage, but I would like to see more integration and a knowledge base of the tool. Currently trying to understand why the storage is separated and how to implement the storage properly is a challenge. Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service. Unlike other solutions such as Kohl which includes everything at one price. MSP360 Backup can be improved by adding inclusive pricing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."

"Every user of IT infrastructure needs to have a backup, and this is a good solution to implement because it is so easy and straightforward."

"I would recommend the solution; it's a very trustworthy solution."

"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."

"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."

"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."

"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."

"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."

More MSP360 Backup pros

"It is the core of our fundamental real-time reporting and operational planning and has saved us over eight figures in the operational run costs, improved data quality and consistency as well as reduced our overall infrastructure support requirements."

"I've never had any issues with scalability."

"The most valuable feature is the ease of uploading data from multiple sources."

"It is quick, secure, and has less hassles because we don't have to involve our networking team, infrastructure, etc. It is very easy to deploy and make market ready."

"It's very mature from a technology perspective."

"The most valuable features of Teradata are that it is a massively parallel platform and I can receive a lot of data and get the queries out correctly, especially if it's been appropriately designed. The native features make it very suitable for multiple large data tasks in a structured data environment. Additionally, the automation is very good."

"The product is reliable."

"The solution is speedy and doesn't require much of a DBA team, it's kind of baked right into the product."

More Teradata pros

Cons

"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."

"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."

"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."

"The solution's pricing is very high."

"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."

"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."

"The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup."

"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."

More MSP360 Backup cons

"Teradata needs to pay attention to the cloud-based solution to make sure it runs smoothly."

"The initial setup was complex as we had to rewrite a lot of the code."

"The initial setup is complex because there are a lot of factors that come into play, including the amount of software and applications that require access."

"Azure Synapse SQL has evolved from a solely dedicated support tool to a data lake. It can store data from multiple systems, not just traditional database management systems. On the other hand, Teradata has limitations in loading flat files or unstructured data directly into its warehouse. In Azure Synapse SQL, we can implement machine learning using Python scripts. Additionally, Azure Synapse SQL offers advanced analytical capabilities compared to Teradata. Teradata is also expensive."

"Since I was working on the very basic, legacy systems, the memory thing was always a challenge. If Teradata is moving to the cloud, the space constraint or the memory issue that my company generally faces will eventually resolve, in time. What I'd like to see in the next release of Teradata is that it becomes full-fledged on the cloud, apart from better connectivity to various systems. For example, if I have to read or include a Python script, if I write some basic codes, I should be able to read even unstructured data. I know that it's not supported even in Snowflake, but at least semi-structured data support, if that can be a little more enhanced, that would be good."

"GUI of administrative tools is really outdated."

"If I want to implement an upgrade, I'd like to see how it will be different. Ideally, Data Lab should help me test production items and also do future things. Future releases should be downloadable and testable in Data Lab."

"I would like to see more integration with many different types of data."

More Teradata cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."

"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."

"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."

"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."

"The solution is expensive."

"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."

"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."

"Its pricing needs improvement."

More MSP360 Backup pricing and cost advice

"Teradata's licensing is on the expensive side."

"Teradata used to be expensive, but they have been lowering their prices."

"The cost is significantly high."

"Teradata is expensive, so it's typically marketed to big customers. However, there have been some changes, and Teradata is now offering more flexible pricing models and equipment leasing. They've added pay-as-you-go and cloud models, so it's changing, but Teradata is generally known as an expensive high-end product."

"Teradata is not cheap, but you get what you pay for."

"The price of Teradata could be less expensive."

"Users have to pay a yearly licensing fee for Teradata IntelliFlex, which is very expensive."

"We are looking for a more flexible cost model for the next version that we use, whether it be cloud or on-premise."
