Pros / Cons
  • Azure Backup can reduce the burden on your IT staff by automating backups and providing centralized management.
  • A backup plan for schedules would be useful.-Restore vaults must ask you whether you want to receive alerts when you initially set it up; I've found a number of times where backup process errors were not setup to send email alerts a couple of weeks later.

  • Can be hosted in TrueNas which is useful as a separate VM (jail in BSD) ; so target for backups is separate device with the nakivo hosted on it
  • The cons in nakivo is firstly the 365 backup is done only on premises and it takes a lot of time to finish if you have under 1Gbit fiber connection.
