    This is all about the selling you a "Device" and prices vary greatly between resellers. The devices work well, but the pure cloud solutions need a lot of work.

    We use OpsNow for Multi-Cloud Management (DXC and Azure) Clouds. This is the best scenario because in only one platform you can have all information about your resources such as your environments, Planning, designing, delivering, operating, and managing the cloud represents more than just infrastructure operations, project or service requests and error handling, to manage your Cloud IT from development to operation in its entirety.

    Cons

    • SQL Backups just don't work reliably. For us, we lost all of our SQL data backed up through the CTERA Application process. Although the logs indicated a success, that was really not the case. This came close to putting us out of business. Luckily I had taken a genuine SQL backup to a folder. Unfortunately it was a month old. We had to pick-up the pieces from there.
    • Don't use it for file sync and share. There are better products out there i.e. anchorworks.com
    • Support sucks. Good luck with response time and answers that are inconsistent between team members. For example I had to rebuild a VM from scratch. When I re-installed the CTERA client It obviously thought I was adding another device. When I inquired to tech support, one member said "copy the old Data folder" (I still had the old VHD. That did not work). The other directed me to the correct spot to just change the associated folder. The turn-around time was over 24 hours for this simple fix.
    • Documentation, plenty of fodder but no real tech there.

    The general support is very good because is online and also its available during business hours. I think OpsNow doesn't have 10 because support 24/7 isn't available yet. I hope in the near future it will be available.

    Unfortunately CTERA does not stack up well if you want a pure cloud BDR. I have use iDrive and Asigra. iDrive has similar support and SQL backup issues. Asigra can vary widely in support and price, but the software is solid.

    Azure Monitor: Because we need to have complete control about resource consumption and also know how our systems are running. Aris: Because is very important to have our flows in a single tool. Bubble PPM: It's a good tool because is very easy manage our project with a intuitive UI.
