Likelihood to Recommend Well suited - 1. Quick archival esp in Google workspace apps. Very easy to archive and store important conversations, chats, etc. 2. Search and eDiscovery - Very important feature. Less appropriate - 1. Export - Very limited options and sometimes a cause of concern due to limited options post eDiscovery. 2. Integration - Very limited integration options and leads to the use of multiple alternatives or workspaces. 3. Archival post deletion - No option for this that leads to missing important elements sometimes.
Read full review Solarwinds Backup is ideal for individuals looking to keep a consistent backup of devices in their environment. We used it primarily for networking equipment. It is easy to set up, as it is one of the steps available when adding a new device to solarwinds. It is probably not an ideal product to use for long-term (1 month+) backups.

Auditing - Workspace manager can easily audit user activities. Helps security at the org level. Read full review Backup Reporting: Email alerts, and a great, easy to read Dashboard with detailed error logs and an easy to search Solarwinds FAQ for a lot of them. Restores: So far I have restored files, full VMs, and VMs to other hardware, and so far it has not only been flawless, but so flexible that I can't imagine going back to any other software. Read full review Cons More export options are available to the user, specifically allowing exported data to be imported into a new account easily The interface is very basic and easy to use, but the dashboard could show more information to make it more usable Read full review Restore complete settings: IP settings, the setting of CPU/Memory for VMs, etc. would decrease management during a restore. Individual file backup: more granular settings for backup. Change of device name after setup: at times, computer names change after restore so it would be great to rename the device name. Option to recovery security key. Read full review Usability Because is a flexible, easy-to-use, complete solution.

Read full review Alternatives Considered The product is similar offering but it is already well integrated into the other g-suite products that we use. It works really well in terms of searching and indexing documents. Other products seemed more elaborate and were complex to implement and use. Since our use case was rather simpler data backup and retrieval, hence it seemed a good fit to implement
Read full review Cove is able to cover all aspects of backup in a single package. From the same dashboard I can check servers, workstations, and even Office 365. Cove is a much better solution in terms of overall management for a company such as ours. It also provides integration options with N-Able's RMM and Take Control solutions. This allows us to offer our customers with a full service suite in a single package.
