## Reviews

### "Very flexible backup solution\!" — 4.0/5

> **Mark** | *20 October 2020* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The number one attribute of CloudBacko is being able to choose your cloud storage vendor.  For example, you can create a backup job, schedule it and then add one or more destinations. We routinely backup to Azure and a NAS from the the same backup job.  The restores are amazing quick\!  I don't know the details of the index they use, but unlike other products you can find a users file quickly and restore it in a minute or two.  My newest admin was skeptical until he restored a file, he is now a fan.
> 
> **Cons**: This is not an issue for me, but my admins complain about the antiquated "tiles" interface. I must add the all love the product the first time they are called on to restore a file.
> 
> We use it at several sites and recommend it based on our years of use.  You can backup files, VMs locally or to your choice of cloud vendors.

### "Cloud backup app" — 4.0/5

> **Oren** | *15 October 2020* | Printing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ability to back up to deference cloude services &#10;And the option to do a on the fly restore to a virtual machines “hot backup”
> 
> **Cons**: If working with vcenter and it crashed it is impossible to recover virtual machines.&#10;Another thing there is no option to change the location of the Buffering.&#10;The last thing that once a backup is deleted from the disk when running cleanup, the backup still listed in the restore list and when you need to restore you could’t restore the backup because it’s deleted.

### "Difficult to use/understand/monitor.  Backups fail for no clear reason." — 1.0/5

> **Jerry** | *24 October 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Integration with OneDrive as backup location.  Relatively inexpensive for the Lite version.
> 
> **Cons**: Java-based user interface is difficult to navigate.  Never sure if backup is actually working - I wouldn't use it as my primary backup source.  The Report screen  frequently shows backups as Failed without a clear explanation or simple resolution.  I'm pretty technical so I can usually work around the problems, but I would never recommend CloudBacko to a non-technical friend.
> 
> I use Windows File History to capture a local backup, and I also sync all my local files directly to One Drive.  CloudBacko is a third level of backup.  Initially I started using CloudBacko because OneDrive didn't support versioning of all file types, and CloudBacko was very inexpensive.  Now that the price has gone up considerably and OneDrive has versioning of all file types, I may stop using CloudBacko. I would continue if the ease of use improved and if the backup failures were easier to understand and correct.

### "Saves my butt\!\!" — 5.0/5

> **Judith** | *15 October 2020* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: My IT likes it and anything that makes him happy makes the rest of us happy\!
> 
> **Cons**: There is nothing that I've heard IT complain about and if there was something I'd have heard him\!
> 
> When our accounting software update crashed the software AND the data, we were easily able to recover data to before the crash, uninstall the updated accounting software, reinstall the prior version and resume activities without losing more than an hour maybe 2 by the time we got done rationalizing what had happened.

### "Cloudbacko" — 5.0/5

> **Rolando** | *23 October 2020* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Friendly user interface, very easy to use.
> 
> **Cons**: I had some troubles moving the Cloudbacko Software to another machine, but I followed the instructions and everything went fine.
