Azure StorSimple vs. Rewind Backups

Onsite storage needs and backing up to Azure.

If your business (or your clients) use QBO using Rewind is an absolute no-brainer in my book. For a modest monthly cost (less than $10 per month per QBO file) you get cheap insurance against losing data and having to spend endless hours re-creating everything. When we use QB Desktop we back up the client QB files for the same reason. Now that things are increasingly moving to QBO we have the same option through Rewind.

• I like that it has an organized and very simple-to-use user interface, with a very striking and colorful appearance.
• The one that allows you to make backup copies in an automated way, leaving aside the long manual process and its wait.
• The one that grants an incredible rewind function that differentiates it from the rest and gives the advantage of reestablishing any unwanted step or change that is not to our liking.
• The one that is a software that not only covers the creation of backup copies but also provides the protection of these thanks to its encryption.

• Additional fail-over functionality

• The interface is a bit slow; it would be nice to have something much more interactive and visually appealing. Not only that, but platform loading times in general can be slow. However, making copies or rewinds flows daily.

If I wanted to use just onsite storage the StorSimple device is already paid for.

Trello only has manual backup options, which only save raw data in the form of spreadsheet exports--which would be a nightmare to rebuild into new boards! Other Trello backup options were similar. Rewind is the only one I've found that can recover the boards as they were at specific moments in time (i.e. right before losing data).

• Great value on year 2

• I feel a lot more liberated to experiment with different page layouts and styles without worrying about causing any damage to the shop.
• With the ability to rewind and restore to a previous backup, we have more peace of mind while experimenting with new functionality.
• I don't have to worry about remembering to back up because it does it for me on a regular basis.
