Overall Satisfaction with BDRSuite

It's pretty intuitive, easy to setup and get running. It is difficult to move your installation though, so choose your location wisely.
I use BDRSuite to backup several VMware hosts to local storage as well as pushing key backups to an S3 bucket.

Pros

  • Easily connect to Vcenter
  • Easily setup offsite cloud storage
  • Decent reporting of backup success / failure.

Cons

  • Licensing can be unclear
  • Proxmox support please
  • Stability improvements
