    I think this service works very well for me, but I have been a Verizon customer for almost 15 years. If you are someone who hops carriers it may not be the best fit. I also like that you can easily use it with all of your employees regardless if they prefer Android or Apple phones. (Whereas using Apple's or Google's services may not work seamlessly for all phones.) I think it still has room for improvement, and sometimes I worry about the longevity of utilization due to the nature of cell phone carriers constantly changing prices, plans, and every option under the sun to make a buck that we could be very screwed in the future if Verizon does something stupid (because historically, they all have)

    Vinchin
    As Vinchin has released newer versions, it has gradually expanded support for a wider range of ecosystems while introducing more advanced features. We first started using it with version 6, when there were still several areas that could be improved. Today, the platform has evolved to include features we don't even use, reflecting how much it has matured. In the past, I would say Vinchin was best suited for small and medium-sized businesses. Today, however, with capabilities such as resilient backup options and support for private cloud platforms like OpenStack, it has become much more enterprise-ready. Adding backup support for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure would likely further strengthen that positioning.

    Pros
    Verizon Business (formerly Verizon Enterprise)
    • Auto-Sync of files or contacts to the cloud that are chosen to be auto-synced.
    • Has the ability to turn off auto-sync and allow only manual sync.
    • Stores files and contacts in the cloud for later recovery in case of a data loss.

    • VM Backup is really good which we are using hosted in XCP-NG Hypervisor.
    • MYSQL Hot Backup is good, we are using for multiple versions.
    • Support is very prompt.

    Cons
    Verizon Business (formerly Verizon Enterprise)
    • The home screen shows a little bit of everything, but being a control freak, I would like to be able to customize it. (Granted, it would most likely have most of the same elements, but, for example, I don't need photos scrolling across the top. I'd rather have buttons like quick links to jump directly to what I want or to see a further bird's eye view of the content.
    • I like receiving notifications that a back-up is complete, but I would like to be able to set what other notifications are and aren't allowed to push to my phone.
    • I have set Verizon Cloud to back up on wifi OR using the data network. But if you are using wifi while doing a content restore and you lose that connection, either by leaving the building or the local wifi dropping out momentarily, the entire content restore will stop and need to be restarted. This can be very frustrating.

    • Please improve regarding log details. The error on the log does not clear.
    • Please make it as installer. So we can install VBR on another platform like Ubuntu.

    Vinchin
    1. Vinchin does the Job (Agent, Agentless) with flexible recovery point options, and restoration has all the features like entire VM, file level, BMR, Etc. 2. Instant Virtual machine is very useful as an immediate recovery option and migration as well 3. BMR is super easy from agent-based backup or agent-less

    All of the others provide more free storage. Verizon should out best or at least equal the best when you are already a Verizon data subscriber. It seems that by not doing this that they want to "nickle-and-dime" their already loyal customer base

    Vinchin
    Vinchin Backup isn't exactly comparable to these products because it offers a multitude of features that allow it to be integrated into any environment, even beyond the smallest single server. These features include the multitude of virtualization platforms it connects to for backup, features that almost no other competitor can offer.

    Return on Investment
    Verizon Business (formerly Verizon Enterprise)
    • Thus far is has been a positive experience, and has saved a lot of man hours of both employees who replaced their phones to the IT department trying to help them put everything back no longer needs to go through a lengthy process.
    • The cost of this option is a bit higher than I'd like. I think Verizon is a little too proud of a product that every company is now starting to offer.
    • There is a free version with limited space, so at least trying it out to see how it will fit with your needs isn't much of a risk.

    Vinchin
    • We have been using Vinchin for the last 3 years, and we have had no issues with VM backups. VM backups are taken for approximately 450 VMs using multiple schedules.
    • For MySQL, we are using the Community edition, where the native hot backup solution is not available. Using Vinchin, we can take hot backups at regular intervals, which have significantly reduced our RPO. Earlier, we used to take MYSQL backup using our own scripts only once a day, at night. After using Vinchin, now it's every 2hours.
    • Support is very prompt. Whenever an issue arises, we get support in the WhatsApp group created for our organization.
