N2WS Backup & Recovery vs. OpenText Core Endpoint Backup

N2WS Backup & Recovery is well suited for backing up aws and aws related services and workloads. The backup management is very easier using N2WS backup and recovery, restores are also fast and N2WS Backup & Recovery provides option to restore to different regions as well and that helps in Disaster recovery kind of testing scenarios

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.

• 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.

• 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.

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.

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.

For AWS based workloads N2WS Backup & Recovery suited best comparing the features and compatibility from the compared applications for backup testing. N2WS Backup & Recovery implementation is also faster and easy to setup. Restores is faster and also provided options to recover to different regions which is not available with the other backup applications at a easy level

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.

• Carbonite Endpoint has demonstrated value in its ability to easily restore seemingly lost files for remote users.
• While we haven't yet had to exercise it, knowing we have the option of remotely wiping endpoints containing sensitive data has brought confidence to our management team that we can mitigate data breaches through preventable means.
• The privacy issue around device tracking is costing the company in terms of employee trust and morale and needs to be mitigated with appropriate messaging and/or disabling of this feature.
