AppFog (discontinued) vs. Axcient x360Cloud vs. ConnectWise Cloud Backup

It was very good to use in small scale projects. Considering the high end projects with many instances and multi-platform architectures, it is better to test before the application is deployed. I think few of the questions can be general - who are the system users and what size is the application focussing on? How much resources are required? Will the application require any additional services?

Axcient x360Cloud is a good product if a backup solutions is needed for 365 products. If the backup is constantly being used and restores need to happen frequently I can see how Axcient x360Cloud could be annoying as the search functionality is lacking. It is also difficult to find specific files or emails as well as subfolders.

SkyKick does a great job on migrations to Office 365. Their technicians are very helpful in planning the whole process, and the tool itself is quite reliable and resilient. Their cloud backup works OK but it does not provide the most friendly or fastest recovery. It also sits on the expensive side as they charge separately for Exchange and Onedrive/Sharepoint backups.

This is because the product does what it advertises but does not go above and beyond. It is perfectly usable for what it does but it is still a little confusing and awkward to use.

Primarily because it used to have a good free tier earlier, which it does not anymore. It's simple, and things are available to use. Compared to it's competitors, it does has less features, but that kind of acts in its favor. That adds to the simplicity, and ease of use for a new user.

As an MSP, we have been able to provide protection for cloud documents to our customer. With Axcient x360Recover, we can feel confident that we are providing a service that is commonplace today but reliable with Axcient. This protection comes at a reasonable price that makes profit margins obtainable without scarifying quality.

For migration purposes, we have chosen SkyKick over and over again. Their tool just works and does a great job with multiple different sources. Their support team is awesome albeit could be somewhat faster sometimes. Regarding cloud backup, it seems like that space is quite commoditized as every vendor offers the same. SkyKick does have some good promotions on migration costs when signing up for cloud backups as well which makes them more competitive than other vendors.
