Considered Both Products	Carbonite Endpoint Derek Schroeder Service Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite Endpoint 360 definitely has a solid footing in the market. Barracuda Essentials is a more comprehensive solution offering many additional features and complementing services including archiving and email Antispam and encryption. Proofpoint is very similar to both … Incentivized Helpful? John Watson Director Non-Clinical Development Chose Carbonite Endpoint As far as I am aware other systems were evaluated but I wasn't involved in that. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Account Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint We chose Carbonite after reading the reviews and hearing from other users on how excellent it was and how helpful the customer service is. Incentivized Helpful? Todd Frazier Systems Administrator Chose Carbonite Endpoint To be honest, Unitrends is the best solution that we found, tested and procured and are very happy with it. But if you don't have 40K to spend on a backup solution then Carbonite is the way to go especially if you spring the additional $1200 and procure their appliance that you … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Account Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint I used both Google Drive and OneDrive for backing up my documents. And while they do an admirable job of doing that, neither of them are a complete backup solution. You cannot automate them to run incremental back ups at specific intervals and their degree of customization is … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose Carbonite Endpoint We're presently looking to expand our endpoint protection. Carbonite Endpoint is the data integrity aspect of this. We've also used Symantec Endpoint Protection, but that focuses primarily on virus and threat mitigation at the endpoints—not dating integrity. So while both … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Engineer Chose Carbonite Endpoint Stacks very well against competitors and excels in what it does. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Executive Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite is fast and easy to configure compared to other platforms. It's a small footprint and runs unnoticed in the background without usurping resources on the local machine. Backup Exec is a massive application and requires far more setup and configuration. Acronis, while … Incentivized Helpful? Namrata D Proprietor Chose Carbonite Endpoint The two main alternatives we have also used are Google Dive and Microsoft 365. While both of them can be used for backing up your office documents (spreadsheets and docs), they aren't very good at backing up other stuff. Also, you cannot automate complete system backups with … Incentivized Helpful? Troy Alcorn Owner /Operator Chose Carbonite Endpoint Mozy has now been purchased by Carbonite, but the cost structure was much higher than Carbonite. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Director Chose Carbonite Endpoint We have also used Mozy Pro and Dropbox. They are all pretty similar in functionality/features of backing up data (not system state or databases as I don't think any of the 3 are well suited for that). To me, it comes down to personal preference and choosing a product that is … Incentivized Helpful? Nathan Venno IT Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint I think this solution is decent, and works well enough for most businesses. I find their lack of alerts to be very troublesome - finding out you can't restore a file because the back did not run for two days is not a conversation I ever need to have again with the owner of the … Incentivized Helpful? Rob Rotundo Service Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint Selected Carbonite because it's cheaper and offers unlimited storage. You do have to pay more if you want to be able to backup external drives, but still worth it. They can't be beat when it comes to price for offsite storage. The support is really good as well. It's nice … Incentivized Helpful? Mahmoud Dahy eLearning Development Manager Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite focuses on backup. It has one objective and it does it well. Other applications do so many things. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Consultant Chose Carbonite Endpoint Overall, Carbonite is a better product, with a more intuitive interface and easier to use. The price was comparable, but I tried Carbonite again, and was able to install it correctly on my next computer. Incentivized Helpful? Nathanial Holt Co Owner Chose Carbonite Endpoint I trust carbonite over the others as far as system backup. Incentivized Helpful? Robb Glietz Technology Advisor Chose Carbonite Endpoint My mind pretty much was made up to use Carbonite since I had been using the personal computer backup version. But I did look Acronis due to a business associate stating it may meet my needs, after talking with a sales person it was found it had a large learning curve. Incentivized Helpful? Sean Ursulo Technical Support Representative Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite was a no brainer. We never really considered anyone else because Carbonite is reputable and I pushed hard for this software after using it with different clients in previous positions. I have not used competitor products as of yet but I have not found a reason to … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Analyst Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite was easier to use but less robust. Incentivized Helpful? Tina Cline IT Support Specialist Chose Carbonite Endpoint Carbonite works well and is affordable for personal and small business customers Incentivized Helpful? Anthony Shane IT Consultant Chose Carbonite Endpoint I use a mix of online backup solutions depending on the client's needs. If a client that I don't manage monthly needs monthly backups, I typically suggest Carbonite for its ease of use. Incentivized Helpful?

Likelihood to Recommend	Carbonite, an OpenText company Carbonite Endpoint 360 is a great solution for any organization with compliance needs. Office 365 defaults to a 30 day backup of all data. Carbonite Endpoint 360 extends this well beyond 30 days and provides an all-inclusive source for retention for data in Office 365. Any small to medium business would greatly benefit from this solution as they can design their entire infrastructure in Office 365 and ensure it's all backed up.

Pros	Carbonite, an OpenText company It is excellent at automating your backups. You don't need to manually do it, just set it up once and let it run in the background. It's pretty simple to set up and use. It will automatically suggest the best options that work for most people and you can be up and running pretty quickly. It's safe and reliable. We have been using it for a couple of years now and had no major issues. Their phone support is excellent. It's also really easy to maintain your backed up data to reduce redundancy.

Cons	Carbonite, an OpenText company To be honest not so impressed with the amount of time it has taken to get data backed up to the cloud. I have not had to do a restore at this time so I cannot comment on the restore process. I was not aware at time of procurement that the upload process would take so long since we were not procuring their hardware. Sales rep mad it seem like upload would only take a day or two and we are now starting week 7 hoping to be done by week 8 for 1.5 TBs of data.

Likelihood to Renew	Carbonite, an OpenText company I found their alerting to be very poor. I missed several days of backups without knowledge of this, until I signed into the portal. I would get daily emails reporting backups were in progress or done, but nothing indicating that a backup had been stuck or paused for 3 days. For this reason alone, I did not renew.

Support Rating	Carbonite, an OpenText company Does what it needs to do quietly and efficiently in the background without interrupting the workflow. It offers instant automated back-ups without troubling the end user. As it is such an automated system, once it is up and running, there is little or no support needed from the service provider. From what I understand the support from Carbonite during the setup and implementation was absolutely fine. Incentivized John Watson Director Non-Clinical Development Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Carbonite, an OpenText company We have also used Mozy Pro and Dropbox. They are all pretty similar in functionality/features of backing up data (not system state or databases as I don't think any of the 3 are well suited for that). To me, it comes down to personal preference and choosing a product that is universal for multiple users, for ease of management. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Carbonite, an OpenText company Data backup is critical to us. Carbonite ensures that we don't lose anything important. It is also good protection against accidental deletions or if someone makes mistakes. Cloud back up also means we don't have to worry about maintaining back up equipment or redundancy in storage.
