Datto Endpoint Backup vs. Nasuni

It does exactly what it needs to do. If there is another MSP that needs a set-it-and-forget-it box they can deploy on client sites, I would recommend this box, especially if they are already using other Datto products such as Datto RMM, as it all integrates with the same portal.

Well suited if you have a lot of data that doesn't need to be stored and read right away. I think even if you don't have much data, you can still use it for it's intended purpose to great effect, but think of it as the more data you have, the even better it will work. I don't think it would be particularly useful if you already have a slick file restore system in place and you don't need to store your data elsewhere with redundancy.

• All clients on the same Webui.
• Easy to spin up a snapshot.
• Support is fast.

• The management console is extremely simple and easy to navigate, making common tasks easy to do.
• Our storage appliance is configured to snapshot data several times an hour, making the risk of data loss very low.
• Data restores are very intuitive, and take seconds to initiate regardless of whether it is one file or 300GB of data. We have successfully restored many Gigs of data in minutes.

• It can be sometimes complicated to change the settings.
• They make it very difficult to migrate the backups.

• Better analytics when issues arise.
• Better onboarding documentation.
• Real-time monitoring.

The webui is intuitive and well-organized. If you need any help, the online chat is quick to respond.

As I mentioned, the user interface is amazing and straight forward. It's very easy to learn how to configure and restore files. I would like a bit more reporting, especially in terms of live reporting and monitoring. The support is great when you have a question on how to do something, which helps with usability.

Again, it may have a little to do with the size and speed of your own environment, but we've been nothing but pleased with the speed of access of the files - even pulling old files from the cloud storage. Recovery of huge and many data files is a bit slow if you don't have the specs of the filer up to snuff.

Slide BCDR, which is not listed. The slide is much simpler, and I found the alerts and alert clearing to be much more effective than Datto. It takes far fewer clicks in the slide interface to do what I need. Slide support is a little bit worse than Datto as it has no live chat

The technical support and escalation path for Nasuni is much more reliable and efficient. No getting transferred to various teams. Often times, the person who answers your call is able to resolve your issue. If they cannot, they get the case assigned to the appropriate engineer right away. Time to close has always been very good.

• The only negative was that when trying to migrate to another BCDR solution, they were not helpful in recovering the data.

• Dramatically reduced time spent managing our storage platform. Quotas and reporting tools take all the guesswork out of data growth. Updates are easy to deploy. Time freed up can be used for more user-facing activities that we consider more valuable to the organization.
• The overall stability of the platform has been very good. We have been running on the same hardware for the past four years without any performance issues.
