Pros / Cons
- The automated backups and straightforward restore options significantly reduce both business risk and downtime in the event of data loss or a security incident. While I see room for improvement in advanced customization and reporting, the platform has proven to be a dependable layer in our security and compliance strategy.
- The fact that if a mailbox is deleted the client is charged for it forever, but if they mark it shared and remove the license they are no longer billed leads to a lot of confusion and frustration from our clients. If your intention is to bill for deleted mailboxes, then you should just do that and not have this workaround.

- It cove-rs all my needs as far as cloud back-up goes, with protection for servers, clients, 365 mailboxes and data, etc.
- Speaking strictly from my personal experience, the one flaw I've found that is the most inconvenient/annoying/inefficient is that with CDP and my Remote Management Dashboard, I am randomly logged-out of the site, and it is exceedingly frustrating when I'm trying to help a customer but I'm having to jump through hoops for several minutes to do all my MFA and logins to get all my services back up on my screen.
