The Virtual Office ensures security, privacy and reliability for every organization needing to run one or more failover virtual machines in…N/A

    Axcient x360Recover's fixed low-cost all-inclusive model to backup across servers, workstations, Azure VM's, and Microsoft 365 is far lower cost with just as good capabilities (except retention windows) to all others we've evaluated.

    Axcient's x360Recover appliance is functionally similar to Datto's Siris line. Axcient x360Recover devices offer significant cost savings over Siris without losing features or performance. Axcient x360Recover support is also much nicer to interact with over Datto. Monthly …

    Axcient is more partner friendly than Datto. They listen to our concerns and implement them. They are always trying to make things better. Datto seemed to only want money and only cared about that. They didn't care about the partners at all.

    I feel that Axcient x360Recover is well suited for any environment, both large and small. Weather you build your own device, BYOD or purchase one of theirs, it all works great. I even use it at home via the direct to cloud option. Well work the investment. I am unable to find a downside at this time.

    Pros
    ConnectWise
    • Setup and configuration is extremely easy.
    • The business continuity component for spinning up the desired recovery point as a virtual machine on the appliance in order to keep the business operational is rock solid.
    • Recovering the desired backup point back to the physical hardware or virtual environment and syncing the most recent changes to finalize the recovery is awesome.
    • The system documentation is concise and easy to use.
    • The support team is absolutely fantastic.

    Cons
    ConnectWise
    • The only thing missing is the ability to cancel a backup as they appear to just continue to try to run even after rebooting the BDR and endpoint until a failure finally occurs.
    • The only other ask would be to expand support to Linux operating systems.

    We've been using Axcient over the years and have worked with their development team to suggest new features, something that you would not normally be able to do with other companies. They listen to what we have to say and understand that we are a business, just like them. It's great to know that someone will always be there for you when you need them.

    It is overall very easy to install and get working. Install the application, select the drives you want to backup or leave blank and backup all drives. It starts to run immediately. You configure all the backup retention and how often to run in the portal so once you deploy the agent it is very easy to get started. After the backup completes. The portal will perform a test boot and auto verification of the image.

    Support is pretty good. The issue is that they don't have any SLA so they get to you whenever. Though, if you hound them, they usually bump you up in the chain and get back to you. Their techs are fairly knowledgeable. Occasionally the first level support isn't the best, but once it bumps up to the next level, they are good.

    I had the miss fortune to go back to this device. Alot has changed since the first time I had used it. Now instead a full deployable network appliance, you have to download a preconfigured virtual machine that will only run on an ESXi server. What about Hyper-V? I have many clients that are Hyper-V only. I setup a test lab to get this thing up and running and it has been a nightmare to say the least. Will be looking at other options.
