As a nonprofit, this software was just what we needed. I loved the easy setup, very intuitive.

Affordable and easy to use backup solution with outstanding performance and stellar support.

Easy to install and configure. File restore is also easy and quick.

Website is constantly updated with tips, help and guides. Very clever instant chat support feature which can be accessed via the software it self.

We have used the software for 4+ years now and we use it on all our virtual machines. Great product and the customer support is very attentive.

I wish they would complete the backup and just add a warning that there was an error code reported. Using a new storage device resolved the issues in our case.

The user interface is a very nice place from which to work. The integration with Hyper-V has been extremely reliable.

Daily usage is also too intuitive. Support has been good to resolve issues.

Monitoring report often shows a failed backup, when going into the report tab on the software itself it doesn't show as failed.

The guys and girls from the support team are lightning fast with response and can help you in minutes.

I'm really impressed by how easy it was to get up and going with Altaro. Setup was very straightforward and it was simple to get all the pieces in place and get going.

We have been very pleased with the performance and are now looking at expanding our use of the product and taking advantage of cloud targets for backup storage.

I suspect this is related to a number of background services that are required and it is not a major headache.

M not sure if there's something negative about it.

They have a very fair pricing structure for both licenses and support services and offer discounts and incentives when needed. Offsite backup feature easy to implement.

Right now, my option is to backup to my local NAS, commit a second backup to segment 2 NAS for resiliency and incase of fire or disaster and recover.

Reliable backup that automatically does integrity checks and send notifcations for failures/problems is also great.

The software is very easy to use and setup. I rarely have issues but when I have had issues the customer support is on top of the problems.

Great simple to use interface and the ability to link up to many clod providers including our own space at datacentre. Also the Tech Support are great.

Because of the nature of it's function it has boosted the company's revenue.

Altaro is ideal for small enviroments with HYPERV ONLY. If customers growth, or if you need integration into Vendor Driven Storage Arrays you will have to look for other products.

Actually, I do not have anything I can complain about. There is only one thing I am missing and that is IPV6 support for OffSite Server.

Reliable, easy to use, affordable backup software for your VM environments.

The entire package is simple and awesome, simply awesome, especially considering the price point.

It's very ease to use and fit our needs to backup all of the VM server.

We were unhappy with our current backup software and started looking for alternatives.

Very good and fast support (for every question a useful answer).

I am really happy about the software. A friend told us about it because he uses Altaro Backup in his company.

Altaro makes me feel like I have control over the backups of my environment, and I feel encouraged that I can continue to trust this software.

7 Virtual Machines all backed up successfully and in a time window that seriously made me look twice. The compression and the speed of backups - wow.

Light and easy user interface, works well as an IT helpdesk ticketing system. Patching works well and I like the simplicity of the application.

I like how we can run scripts, check software on each computer and implement custom attributes and comments in our computer information.

The back-end seems a bit dated. Foreign language implementation has been an issues for years, there are options but up until now, it hasn't been working well.

There is no unity between the different modules, other than the color scheme of the UI.

Product was easy to use. I enjoyed the reporting that was able to be generated.

My overall experience with Kace is pretty positive. There are some quirks as there is with any software, but for the most part, it is reliable for what I need to do on a daily basis.

Kace agents sometimes just stop working, but I set alerts what that happens on the servers.

I had a hard time with integration of pxe boot in my organization.

Internal ticketing system and integrates well with other support applications.

The vulnerability scanning section is difficult to use and has not seen much improvement recently. This is really the only major function of KACE that we do not use.

Highly recommend this product. It is one of our most trusted tools.

A good platform at an appropriate price, which can be relied upon to accomplish a lot of administrative matters.

Notifications and reports. I don't deal with Service Desk directly, but I love it.

It gets the job done so if you need less options and features it could save you some money. Depends on needs, we're phasing it out.

The thing I liked the most about KACE was the ease of use.

Amazing, from all point of view, from products to customer service.

KACE has been wonderful for us for years. We did use it for full issue ticketing with the company for years but have recently moved to another program for this purpose.

Long time KACE user, highly recommend this product.

We have been using KACE for more than 10 years and have appreciated the way that it has kept up with new trends and technology as the expectations of IT groups change.

The View by drop downs/changing views is sometimes finiky.
