Barracuda ECHOplatform for MSPs vs. Spanning Backup

If a backup solution is needed without purchasing an appliance, the Intronis solution does a great job of backing up data and replicating to the cloud. The backup is restricted by total data, so any databases and other items are covered as long as it's under the total data cap.

Spanning Backup for G Suite is great for businesses or schools who want peace of mind that important data in Google Drive are backed up and easy to restore. It should not be used to backup your servers/etc as the backup and restore process is not THAT quick. Not slow, but not the quickest.

• Centralized console for all Intronis backup software installations
• Linked connection to the Barracuda Cloud Control console to manage essentials and backup appliances
• Alerting from backup software can range from simple to complex as well as schedule options

• Set it and forget it. Easy set up and it runs daily behind the scenes.
• Restore holds record relationships.
• Restore can merge records easily.

• the expanding of the roles that are allowed, just 4 seems to be too limiting
• integration of the campus should be self service not a email and wait for 24 hour turn around

Incentivized

• Administrative users can backup multiple accounts at one time, but can only restore one account at a time.
• Management console navigation opens additional tabs, but I believe they are working to improve that.
• It would be nice to be able to delete emails and files from user accounts from within Spanning instead of having to login to Google as the user.
• Google Forms meta-data is not able to be restored to other accounts.

The web console is easy to use.

I would like a retention option on the data, but since this feature does not currently exist, I give it a 9. Everything has met our standards and needs and we are now freed up from the manual efforts it was taking for backing up Salesforce using the out-of-the-box features of Salesforce.

The platform was a requirement to get access to the products, but it seemed a bit rushed and some of the feature are not consistent, like the cloud to cloud you need to create an admin for the tech to implement vs the creds passed over from ECHOplatform.

Spanning Backup for G Suite backs up Google Drive files and Unitrends is used for more VM infrastructure.

• This is a great solution for backups when a backup appliance is not necessary (or within economic range).
• Local NAS replication can provide faster recovery of data in the event of a catastrophy.

Incentivized

• Allowed us to restore our data various times with minimal costs
• Gives us great piece of mind with the regular scheduled backing up
• Pretty simple to set up and configure. Easy integration with SFDC
