Overall Satisfaction with Cove Data Protection

Cove Data Protection is our go-to solution for quick deployment of Cloud Backups for Servers. Especially the minimal bandwidth it uses for incremental backups is very impressive compared to other (non cloud-native) backup solutions. It integrates well with our RMM platform (N-Central) for Deployment and Monitoring. The options to do scheduled Disaster Recovery testing on their end also provides a upsell to our customers.

Pros

  • Optimised Incremental Backups (Very small upload sizes)
  • Deployment is very fast and easy, no "complex" infrastructure required
  • Easy to use UI which and centralized management and monitoring
  • Always CloudBased backup which cannot be deleted on the endpoints which adds a great layer of security.

Cons

  • While being very impressive at upload sizes it comes with the downside that backups itself are a bit slower
  • Bare Metal Recovery is more involved than other Image Based Solutions
  • Bare Metal Recovery of Cloud VM's (Azure) are not possible.
  • Very fast / scripted installations means it is very fast to deploy without much effort/time from Techs
  • Good Pricing structure
Very easy to use , deploy and manage.
Easy and Quick installation, Cloud-Always backup , very good and generous retention options, verification testing options, ...

Would you buy Cove Data Protection again?

Yes

For scenarios where upload bandwidth is limited Cove Data Protection is our go-to. It also provides us with a very easy method to deploy, manage and monitor all of the endpoints in a easy to use UI. It also requires no additional hardware requirements, a NAS or other storage is optional to provide a local cache (Speedvault) but in scenario's where no other hardware is available it's a great option. (compared to more traditional backup solutions who need a specific VM to run on and onprem storage)
