5 reviewers had the following to say about Backup's pricing:
Great product, cost effective solution.
Pros
Software is easy to use, set up, and administer. Also the cost is so much better than competing localized products
Cons
1. Inability to RESTORE to "another location" OTHER than the local C: drive of the computer you are administering from.

Overall, I have been happy with the product. The online backup option has decreased the amount of time spent working with clients to connect local backup drives. Support has been very helpful.
Pros
Overall, Solarwinds Backup just works with little intervention needed. I was skeptical of what was promised by the sales people, but after using it, I was very impressed. The online backup function helps to ensure backups always complete if local hardware is disconnected or failed.
Cons
I have run into some problems that have delayed restores, but in each instance, support has been able to help restore the device successfully. It would be nice if there was a local only option for backups. The price of the product is higher than other options.

Pros
Very good customer support, and useful online backup function
Cons
No local only option for backups, and relatively expensive complete product
Thanks for trying SolarWinds Backup. I would like to clarify one point - we do provide the ability to keep an optional local copy of your backups, using the storage hardware of your choice. Our backup process is direct-to-cloud, and not dependent upon a local appliance or aggregator, which eliminates a potential single point of failure.

I recently made the "big step" to set up an external server for my work. Since then, smaller, non-business optimized cloud services didn't seem to scale up in pricing and protection, so i subscribed to SolarWinds Backup. It obviously has a ton of tools, that i might never need. But since my daily work routine is based on different projects with different customers, it's crucial to have a central storage point, that is easily accessible from everywhere and reliably saves all the steps of editing.
Pros
With several backup-steps SolarWinds Backup assures a complete protection from dataloss.
Data is easily accessible from everywhere and backups are generated automatically and efficiently.
The ability to access old versions of backups is especially helpful to never lose progress!
Cons
I didn't encounter any real problems with this software. The load of functions can be overwhelming, especially with all of the cryptic abbreviations.
Honestly though, this is not a real con, but rather my own problem!
