EaseUS Todo Backup vs. Exagrid EX Series

EaseUs Todo Backup is well suited for the Branch Office and small to the medium business network. The software is powerful enough to meet most of the demands of these less complex environments. However, it may not provide the bells and whistles of enterprise software designed for highly virtualized environments.

We have Exagrid [EX Series] in different environments and it has adapted very well to both. We have used it for larger environments and its scalability if properly and takes up little physical space. We also use it as a backup solution for smaller environments, such as our vessels.

I don't see where the adaptability of Exagrid [EX Series] can be bad or unadjustable.

• It's easy to use for beginners. I found the UI to be straightforward and logical.
• The software also runs in the Windows Pre-install Environment (Windows PE) if the machine crashes. Of course, you need to have backed up the drive first!
• Backups from the whole OS down to single files is available.
• Backup to CD/DVD, SSD and HDD are all supported.

• High backup speeds
• Native Veeam integration
• Deduplication/efficiency savings
• Friendly management interface
• Native replication between Exagrid boxes

• It needs a better way to monitor success/failure of the scheduled backups. Maybe notifications?

• I don't have much to add here. Overall, it has been a solid purchase for us.

EaseUS Todo Backup is a superb software that does what it claims without the user needing a degree in computer science. Its plain user interface belies a lot of functionality that logically "guides" the user to making local and remote (cloud) backups of their important data. Additionally, the secure encryption of backups is just one less thing to worry about.

EaseUs Todo Backup is well suited for the small business environment and provides a good bang for the buck and value for features. It is not as costly as the other enterprise-grade solutions and therefore fits well into the budget of small businesses. It is not as advanced as the enterprise solution, but it provides the right mix of features and functionality to meet the needs of the average small business network.

We used Symantec tape making the decision to move to Exagrid.
