AWS Backup vs. CloudAlly by OpenText

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.

CloudAlly is a great backup for Salesforce and Box that is cloud based for a reasonable monthly/annual cost. Thankfully, we have rarely had to use our backups, but the service has been very reliable. It is less appropriate if you are not storing a lot in any of the platforms that they backup

Very easy to use and is as plug and play as you can get. There are configuration options for multiple schemas that best fits your organization.

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.

Being an AWS service, AWS Backup integrates in a native way with other AWS services, providing an easy way to backup those services. Being able to create separate backup plans that meet specific business and regulatory compliance requirements provides us with capabilities to face auditing processes.

We chose CloudAlly because it had both Box and Salesforce as backup options so we were able to only setup one service, rather than two. The price point is also much better than OwnBackup, which was our second option. I like Skyvia for importing data, but their interface is not as easy to use.

• Being able to offer live hot storage in the cloud for production environments allows me to get more people in the creative space with vast demand for speed.
• Great integration with all my hardware, firewall and backup software was great.
• Being able to network path my files like a native drive to my computer from the cloud made the designer not complain so much able learning new stuff.

Incentivized

• Extra layer of protection on our data
• Ability to retrieve past data if an issue occurs
