Pros

“Its automation, patch management, and endpoint monitoring features can significantly improve efficiency for IT teams and managed service providers. While the interface and learning curve can be challenging at first, the platform provides substantial value once properly configured and integrated into daily workflows.”
PP

Peter P.

Owner

“The platform helps reduce manual workload, improves operational efficiency, and provides strong visibility into system health across managed environments.”

Senior Information Technology Manager

Pros

“Its ability to integrate with multiple cloud providers and support a range of backup types makes it well-suited for small to mid-sized businesses and IT-managed environments.”
DE

Daniel E.

Sr Systems Administrator

“Setup has many options, several actions need an elevated/admin CLI, and some behavior (exclusion masks, retention formats) is under-documented — I had to experiment.”
MP

Marco P.

Director

“Restores are granular (single file, any point in time) and there's a full CLI for automation.”
MP

Marco P.

Director

Cons

“Due to the vast range of customization options, it can be overwhelming initially and may feel as though you are not getting full value for money until the tool has been fully learned and adopted.”
JF

Jake F.

Second line Sysadmin

“The support for Apple device has been lacking.”

“I also had a 3rd party work on it with us and they were having a hard time getting PowerShell commands to work most of the time.”
DE

David E.

CEO

Cons

“Error messages and logging are sometimes unclear, making troubleshooting more difficult.”
DE

Daniel E.

Sr Systems Administrator

“License pricing increase with no additional benefit, the account rep never responded to any of my follow ups about price matching prior to my legacy file backup license being done away with.”
TH

Tom H.

Owner

“The interface can feel outdated and overwhelming for new users.”
