It is a reliable, versatile, manageable backup system. Therefore, I am very happy with it.

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

I like the centralized monitoring. I can look in one place to quickly see the status of all. The green circle on the dashboard is perfect. Of course, if there is an issue, I can usually address it right from the dashboard

#### Cons

Restoring files from an image backup is confusing. I don't do it a lot, but I have to look it up every time, and even then it is confusing. I also configuring the retention times is confusing. I wish there was more detail on the impact of each choice. The setup on the Dashboard for a new customer is very confusing at first. I made a list of instructions when I first did it so now I breeze through. However, it was rough at first requiring one to jump around the interface a lot.

#### Reasons for choosing MSP360 Backup

I did not consider other products. MSP360 (Cloudberry at the time) was the first alternative I looked at.

#### Reasons for switching to MSP360 Backup

Crashplan used to be great, but they have slowly gotten worse and worse for customer support. I also like the fact the MSP360 is a whole server restore solution instead of just data. However, I found the Crashplan interface to restore individual files much easier to use than MSP 360.

#### Pros

Cloudberry gives us easy and uncomplicated access to cloud backup solutions usually only accessable through expensive contracts with IT management firms. By using Cloudberry in tandem with backblaze b2, we've reduced our offsite backup costs to 1/10th of the price.

The setup process is a bit clunky for people without experience but their team are more than happy to help if you get stuck!

#### Pros

Cheaply and reliably encrypts and ships backups to Amazon for long-term storage as an LTO tape alternative. Once setup, it's pretty set-and-forget.

#### Cons

Automation around the product is somewhat difficult (e.g., automating ad-hoc restores from Rundeck). Also, immutable storage is complicated when you have a simple use-case, such as needing to backup SQL database backup files like transaction logs. It's not just a toggle-switch.

MSP360 has been a dependable solution in our MSP toolkit. It's particularly great for customers who already have preferred cloud storage or want control over backup destinations. While not as "plug-and-play" as other options, the flexibility it provides is unmatched when tailored properly

#### Ratings breakdown

#### Pros

MSP360 offers a flexible, powerful backup platform with support for local, cloud, and hybrid storage. It's highly customizable, supports a wide range of storage providers (AWS, Wasabi, Backblaze, etc.), and has detailed job logs and reporting. The granular restore options and image-based backup are also strong points.

#### Cons

The interface can feel outdated and overwhelming for new users. Remote management through the web console (especially in legacy versions) lacks polish. Some errors can be cryptic and require deep digging.

#### Pros

I'm focusing this review on the Server Backup edition of CB backup. It's incredibly flexible in terms of configuration and storage options. It will work with just about any cloud provider that you might need, including Backblaze B2. The interface is pretty good , at least compared to the competition. It's got some quirky elements, but I've been able to figure out how to do most things pretty easily. Basically, if you want to choose your storage provider separately and are looking for a tool to access that storage, that can work with different providers and offers multiple backup sets, it seems like the best choice, at least in this price range. The server backup edition offers OS backup, system state backup and bare metal backup restore, which is really nice. I'm using it on WHS2011, where I've previously had to cobble together a mix of Windows server backup and 3rd party options. So far it looks like I'll be able to do it all with Cloudberry which is great, and in addition, combine local and cloud backup flexibly.

#### Cons

Backup version control could be improved. I've used crashplan in the past, which has abandoned its consumer market - but crashplan had excellent control of version saving so you could save more recent versions and less older versions - while always retaining some older backups in case you need to do a restore from an older period. Hopefully, CB will improve version control. Another issue for me is the business model. I'm not thrilled that I need a license for every single machine I want to backup - but the real kicker is that there is a 1TB limit on cloud storage with all the editions except the very expensive Ultimate edition. This is surprising at first because Cloudberry is not providing the storage! It is a purely arbitrary limitation that has nothing to do with software capabilities. These days, with large media files, 1 TB is not so large. You really have to search the website to even find this out - it's not described in the product specs. So $29 for the basic desktop version - but if you want to backup all those movies and music and home videos - the price goes up by 10x. On the other hand, they seem to be willing to release that limitation in exchange for a review, so that's okay. The progress bars are not very helpful - you can't really see how much is waiting to be backed up and it's difficult to see how much is currently in the backup storage. Beyond that major issue, I've run into some glitches - but nothing that keeps me from using the software.

We needed to back up all the computers in the office, without the need to hire outside help, so we purchased this software which turned out to be very good, easy to use and extremely secure with all the backups it backs up. A very efficient software to keep your files backup safe. It is also very easy to use without the need to hire external companies to do the job. The best of all is that if there is any doubt or inconvenience, the technical service will always be ready to solve it.

#### Pros

It has a great backup capacity, since we were able to make backup copies of each computer in the company and although it took a long time to do it, due to the amount of information, it did not present any kind of inconvenience. The email alerts are very efficient, because they warn us if there is any problem in any of the machines. The technical support provided good support in the steps where we did not know how to perform any action when running the software.

#### Cons

I had some errors when installing the software and some backups, but the technical support was very efficient in helping us with that. The prices are cheap if you look month to month, but you have to pay a whole year in advance, which is a considerable expense for some companies, especially start-ups.

#### Pros

MSP360 Managed backup was first brought to my attention by the AWS team. It has been a solid performer. After getting it set up, I have had no issues ever. While Setting it up, I had one setting wrong, and their support was able to quickly point out the problem and get things running. This was the only time an archive has ever failed. But it proved the fail reporting process is solid. The SAAS management console allows me to check and maintain backups from anywhere. The phone app gives very quick and user-friendly access to job status and allows the ability to kick off processes manually in just a few taps.

#### Cons

There is nothing I have found that is a downside. There were a couple of minor hitches setting things up, but support was able to find the problems and help me fix the issues quickly.
