ECHOplatform is the cloud console for managing Intronis software installations. In order to manage my backup solutions, appliances, and Barracuda Essentials subscriptions, they're all in one handy console.
Pros
Centralized console for all Intronis backup software installations
Linked connection to the Barracuda Cloud Control console to manage essentials and backup appliances
Alerting from backup software can range from simple to complex as well as schedule options
Cons
Purchasing and activating Barracuda Backup appliances via Intronis complicates the process as appliances use the Barracuda Cloud Console for management.
Intronis Backup software could use some improvement on reliability as it requires massaging more often than the Barracuda Backup appliances.
Likelihood to Recommend
If a backup solution is needed without purchasing an appliance, the Intronis solution does a great job of backing up data and replicating to the cloud. The backup is restricted by total data, so any databases and other items are covered as long as it's under the total data cap.
