OwnBackup vs. SysTools Cloud Backup Tools

OwnBackup is a great solution for anyone wanting to backup their Salesforce data reliably. It is also a great solution for archiving older records that still need a UI that allows users to easily access those records in the future.

• Very good for a backup that is also used for frequent access (like a remote HD) and is easy to share.
• Not 100% reliable as a full copy (like TimeMachine) of the HD, but not far off.

Incentivized

• Automatic, daily full backups of data.
• Users have access to backups
• User friendly interface

Incentivized

• Fast response
• Excellent analysis
• Easy migration

• Price - it is one of our most expensive third-party applications
• User adoption - we are still not leveraging all of the OwnBackup features

• Backup to Dropbox and other cloud services would be great.
• Online backup to 3rd party cloud services that do not affect band-width on the user end.

Super easy usability is something you don’t find out there these days with back up utilities.

Great over all for what the purpose is. Not needing to spend much time focusing on backup

The native Salesforce weekly export tool is not a sufficient backup solution. It must be run manually and can not be run more frequently than once a week. The resulting backups are a collection of CSV files. OwnBackup automatically backs up your data daily and has a web interface to search and manage your backups.

From my research, SysTools was chosen mainly due to its simplicity. Other software tends to add a lot of eye candy, which for me was not necessary. I needed something that I could configure and leave running in the background relatively unnoticed. SysTools provided that with little interruption to my daily activities.

• The archiving features of this product have had an ROI of $18K for storage costs recurring annually
• We have not had to do a full restore of backups, but if we did loose data and have to perform a full restore OwnBackup would easily become our most valuable tool

Incentivized

• Reduces time of sharing files and working on them collaboratively, in fairly large groups. We stopped using email attachments.
• Reduce recovery time from a faulty or retired PC.
• Reduce time of recovering old and large files we do not keep offline.
