There is a cost involved with data retrieval. AWS Backup is truly that, a backup. If you need to access this data on a regular basis, there are better options out there. For long term, just in case incremental backups, AWS [Backup] checks all the boxes. Just set it up, start your backups, and rest assured your data is safe.

If you need to send information to someone and you don't want others to see in case the wrong person gets it, that you can encrypt it and just make sure the person has the password to open it. This program makes it very easy to send emails to others and inform people when you are away and when you will be available upon return.

  • More vocabulary to choose from when needing a different word to complete a sentence.
  • For example, when you point the arrow over Review that a list will appear for what is listed under that section as oppose to having to click on it.
  • Have a button that you can click on to demonstration how to use something for example graphs.

Overall because I can sell it white labeled and use my white labeled software like CloudBerry and the native backup apps on my synology NAS servers to store things in real time and do duplication and disaster recovery directly to it was game changing for my client in the advertising world they are never down now.

Support for AWS Backup is by Amazon itself so it is solid as always. If you have a business or higher level support plan you'll have no trouble getting engineers or other staff on the job to help you with whatever comes up.

I've tried a lot of different products. Backblaze, at least from a birds-eye view is significantly cheaper than AWS/the rest. Backblaze is a little more simpler, but it's well worth it. Linode also provides backup options, however I'm only familiar with their backup on their VPS's (however you make that plural), which never gave me a problem.

Super slow, often corrupted data, Carbonite is such a better engine and architecture.

Return on Investment
Amazon AWS
  • Offsite means a failure at our cloud provider means we can redeploy quickly to another data center or another provider quickly.
  • The cost can't be best.
  • Pay only for what you use. No need to pay for extra data that you don't need.
  • No minimums

  • Helping busy staff members keep up with dates .
  • The reminders are perfect so you will not miss out on a meeting.
