    The only issue we have is when we remove the user from the integrated AD group we need to manually go back and remove the licensing, but there is the option to have archived accounts as well for temporary holds in case we want to disable the account in 365/AD, but need to hold on to the backups for a little longer.

    • 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.

    Cons
    Kaseya
    • Better support/phone support
    • The ability to checkmark JUST a single OU and then any new members in just THAT OU would be automatically backed up. Currently, you can just auto add new members but not per OU.

    • 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.

    It was hands down, one of the easiest solutions to implement overall and has some of the best features also compared to other similar products from many SaaS backup companies. We also integrated the Dark Web monitoring too and it has helped us secure accounts we didn't know had issues, so has improved our security posture too.

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

    I would like a retention option on the data, but since this feature does not currently exist, I give it a 9. Everything has met our standards and needs and we are now freed up from the manual efforts it was taking for backing up Salesforce using the out-of-the-box features of Salesforce.

    Spanning is superior to Veritas Backup Exec. Often Backup Exec would fail due to the software itself or the premise-based backup media or drive. Veritas Tech Support/Knowledgebase was not helpful in troubleshooting the failures. Also, Veritas was unable to back up our then Microsoft Exchange Server without an additional add-on cost. Barracuda was more reliable, but also required additional expenses for backing up Exchange and Microsoft SQL.

    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.

    • 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.
