We use Iperius Backup to protect our small customers' data. It's a cost-effective software that allows us to copy data both locally and remotely and needs very little time to be put in place. This is our go-to solution for very small infrastructures with 0-1 servers and we monitor it via their Iperius Console.
  • Less than 15' to set up
  • It has its own cloud storage solution
  • It has a monitoring console
  • It's very cost effective
  • Lack of clear documentation
  • Rsync not supported
  • Apparently NFS shares are supported but it's not clear how to use them
  • Iperius Console should be improved (it's almost a read-only dashboard and you need too many clicks to get where you want to go)
Iperius Backup is a very simple and cheap but absolutely effective solution for small infrastructures. You can use it both on Windows clients and servers, it can integrate with ESXi, MySQL, MSSQL, etc. I think the best way to use it is with their cloud space (Iperius Cloud Storage) that allows you to take care effortlessly of your small customers' data. When it comes to more complex infrastructures, I prefer relying on something different (Nakivo Backup and Replication, Promox Backup Server).
  • Easy to configure
  • Moderate price
  • Own cloud storage solution

  • One standard solution for small customers
  • One console to monitor backup jobs
The company used several free solutions (e.g. Cobian Backup et al.) but they were outdated and there was no standardization, nor a simple way to monitor all the backup jobs. Iperius had all the key features needed for the task and the project is very much alive (regular new releases).
