Excellent vision and execution, UI and UX improvements incoming!

Perfect.

PROS

We spent a lot of time several years go with a competitor, since the switch to dropsuite we have not looked back. Their product team continues to be ahead of the curve in vision and in product effectiveness. They add new capabilities and function rapidly, often at no price change! Excellent support and customer service / account service. Worked with me to aid in seperation of duties capabilities and are reimagining it from the ground up.

CONS

The UI is pretty hard to get. Sometimes the things are not in logical places and the overall structure of accounts, heirarchy, and permissions. These are however all in the roadmap and I believe fully in the teams leadership and execution.

Reasons for switching to Dropsuite Email Backup

The development stalled on a product that I knew I was ahead of the curve in adopting, and I bet on the stronger horse and I am glad that I did.

Dropsuite Email Backup

Has been great - we use this as our standard with O365 backups with clients

PROS

Ease of setup (once setup it just runs automatically)

CONS

It is difficult to see the backup history for one user

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

Capabilities of Restore

Reasons for switching to Dropsuite Email Backup

At the time, Barracuda's Cloud to Cloud backup had some challenges. It has since been migrated to a new platform and we still have several clients using this new platform - similar now in the experience of DropSuite.

Easy to deploy, works great with both Exchange and Office365 - just not at the same time.

Backup and Restore obviously - before Microsoft had the compliance center able to export discoveries as a PST, DropSuite was the only way we knew of to easily capture an entire employee mailbox in one file without the users needing to jump through hoops.

PROS

Very straight forward and easy to deploy. The ability to download a user's data directly as a PST is very much appreciated, and the flexibility of backing up either Exchange or Office365 with the same product is great - however the product never acknowledges that it can't do BOTH in a hybrid environment, which can leave some holes.

CONS

Assigning users to be backed up is either "back up everyone, no questions asked" or "back up only the exact users I come in and set up," there's no middle-ground. I don't want to have to babysit the product but I also don't want to be billed for the copier that needs a paid office365 license.

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

Consistent interface regardless of cloud vs on-premise environment, and reasonable pricing.

Dropsuite is a great option for 365 Backup

We are very satisfied with dropsuite. It does a great job of backup and legal archive for the whole 365 stack. Managing the platform is intuitive.

PROS

The UI is the best in the industry. Really intuitive and makes managing backups, restores, and E-discovery easy.

CONS

I have no major complaints. Pricing is reasonable, but higher than some.

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

I think this is the best product in this category

DropSuite for All

DropSuite provides a cloud to cloud solution that keeps data secure in transit and at rest in Canada

PROS

This software is very easy to set us and uses modern authentication to ensure a safe and secure method of access; restoration is easy all in a simple and modern interface.

CONS

SharePoint restores can take longer than you would expect; I know that they are working on this because of throttling in the Migration Asynchronous Metadata Read (AMR) API. Product development is very active in fixing this.

Reasons for switching to Dropsuite Email Backup

Cost, convenience and modern authentication advancements ahead of others.

DropSuite - the main competitor to Datto SaaS Protection

DropSuite has protected several thousand users' mailboxes, OneDrive, and SharePoint very well. I prefer DropSuite over SkyKick backup. I find it almost as good as Datto SaaS Protection.

PROS

DropSuite is easy to deploy, and very cost effective. The premium offering provides the most value with real-time archiving of all email in and out. The backups work, and recovery can be done on a granular basis. It is nice being able to detack/export a previous employee's mailbox, or attach it to another user.

CONS

Compared to Datto SaaS Protection, the support is not as good. The GUI also needs improvement - not as nice as Datto SaaS Protection.

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

We are not a Datto shop, and the ease of licensing DropSuite was easier for us.

Dropsuite is set and forget.

Overall, it's been good. They have been a good partner, and the product just works.

PROS

It mostly just works. It's honestly good, and you will have little to worry about if you decide to buy it.

CONS

We have had issues with configuring notifications to notify on every success as well as every failure. This is very important to us, for when we audit backup completions. Otherwise it has just worked.

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

It's situational, in some cases Veeam makes more sense, and for others Dropsuite does. They are very different from each other.

Best bang for your buck life-saver!

We looked at numerous solutions when attempting to find a solution to backup and archiving for O365. Our largest concern was ease of use, and I couldn't be happier with this solution. You made the integration very simple and we have been able to navigate this tool expertly when onboarding new folks on our team. We are VERY happy with this solution.

PROS

Backing up O365 and ensuring compliance to our retention policies felt like a daunting task, but with Dropsuite, we have been able to successfully recover data, not just from e-mail but from sharepoint and one-drive on several occasions in such an easy manner, I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone who is looking for a backup and retention policy management tool for their O365 presence.

CONS

It is somewhat tricky to get ahold of someone when something comes up, but once I open a ticket successfully, I get excellent service.

Reason for choosing Dropsuite Email Backup

Not just the ultimate backup system

Fantastic product.

PROS

From the moment we watched one of the introductory online videos, we realised the system was going to be an amazing solution for many of our industry challenges. I will probably have to repeat some of the things I have answered before, but we have only now realised the importance of these features. Once the licenses are provisioned, the setup process is straightforward, almost automated, without feeling out of control at any point. As mentioned before, in our opinion, many systems can mirror or duplicate data with absolute accuracy, a tool that is relatively useless when you don't lose all data at once. There must be hundreds of instances where only small portions of data are lost due to accidental or malicious deleting of emails and documents. The ideal system provides a strong (and fast) search feature to find the smallest needle in the data haystack and reinstate it with ease. Countless industries are governed by a regulatory framework, and most require an audit trail of data under the protection of personal information. Ransomware attacks and data breaches are common subjects of news articles.

CONS

I honestly cannot dream up another feature I could add, but if I had to be critical, I don't see the need to go through a reseller when the product is simple and robust enough to stand on its own.

Email Backup and Archive that is Easy to use and Just Works!

We have been using them for multiple years and it is a great option.

PROS

The software is very easy to use for both administrators and end-users, it easily allows end-users access to restore their own emails and access their archived emails. They do not charge you for storage.

CONS

Sometimes the connection has to be re-authenticated with Microsoft, but you are alerted of this and it is easy to do. This is mostly a Microsoft thing and not really an issue with their software. It would also be great if the emails could be displayed in folders like they are in Outlook but I have been informed this is also a Microsoft API issue.

PROS

Solid 3rd Party Backup for Microsoft 365 Environments

PROS

This product provides a comprehensive backup solution for Microsoft 365. Items such as email, OneDrive, and Teams are all backed up in real-time. Given Microsoft's own disclosure that they may not always be able to serve up your data, having this backup solution in place is very reassuring.

CONS

As with most SaaS products there is a learning curve for implementation and administration. However, once you've been through it a time or two it is not terribly difficult to get in place.

Il software funziona bene per quella che é la sua funziona, ci sono caratteristiche che mi sono piaciute e che sono stata sorpresa di trovare, tra cui la grafica molto ben rifinita.

CONS

Credo che in un'ottica generale manchi parecchia roba. Come ad esempio piú archiviazione e condivisione tra i diversi cloud.
