Provides enterprise-level protection from ransomware attacks

Speaking about how the product is deployed in my company's business operations, I would say that it is an appliance with a critical infrastructure. In terms of data protection capabilities, the tool's ability to boot a device and have a separate network has saved the day for many of our company's clients who use the solution. If you have a collection of old servers, and if one of the old servers dies, you could be dead in the water if you cannot locally boot a server. Even the new gears in place can have an issue if people are not spending money on robust hardware tools, and replace them. It is necessary to have the local boot options if and when you have a hardware issue. The product brings the most value in the area of virtual boot when it comes to disaster recovery since it can boot up a version of the server from before an incident, which is helpful and allows your company to have a lower RPO or recovery point objective. It makes a big difference if you can have an RPO in hours rather than in days. The image-based backup functionality has revolutionized and impacted our company recovery time objectives since we deal in hours and not in days. The interface of the product is intuitive. I like the product's functionality that provides the ability to see everything at a glance, along with the alerting feature. Maintenance is required since certain drives die at times. In general, maintenance is required to deal with dead RAMs and hard drives. The former clients with small offices and the old Linux servers that used to die in production used to boot such servers with the help of Datto Cloud Continuity. The aforementioned process allows the clients to continue running their business while buying time to get replacement hardware, making a big difference that helps them reduce potential data loss or downtime. The local boot provided by the product saved the day for many of our company's clients. I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. Though the tool is not inexpensive, it provides enterprise-level protection from ransomware. I rate the overall tool a nine out of ten.

User-friendly interface, and reasonably priced but the support needs improvement

While the solution is generally satisfactory, we encountered difficulties when attempting to seek assistance for issues we faced. Getting the necessary help proved to be quite challenging. The after-sales service is not ideal for French-speaking customers like us in Quebec. Unfortunately, there is no local support available for us. We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The solution has the capability to scale well."

"The data recovery of the solution is very good."

"Datto has strong competition, but they succeeded in linking their service to the device. It's easy for managed service providers to sell and upsell products using their portal and the remote monitoring and maintenance."

"The solution's reliability is one of its most valuable features...It is a very stable solution."

"When you compare it to other systems that require a fat client to be installed or to have several VMs setup just to configure the system, Datto stands head and shoulders above."

"They are laser-focused on bringing forth proven protection technologies and stopping cybercriminals from being able to breach, break, steal, or compromise your data."

"Very friendly, since it visually facilitates the control and administration of the backups."

"The platform provides a faster backup process."

More Datto Cloud Continuity pros

"Generally speaking about Veeam, as a vendor, from a technical support perspective, I've really enjoyed the fact that they have a really high response rate."

"I like this solution and recommend it to clients."

"The most valuable features are the fast replication and recovery of data."

"Veeam Cloud Connect is used extensively, and there's a plan to increase its usage in the future."

"It's a great product because it's great scalability and it scales out from small to big companies perfectly."

"This solution works really well and it is simple to deploy."

"The interesting part of the solution is that the customer does not have to invest in a second site to store their offsite backups."

"I like the fact that it gives you the possibility to set the data out of the customer on-premises site and to have an off-site copy in your Cloud Data Center."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"They are now providing the device instead of selling it, while wanting their users to sign a three-year contract, and this is something which my clients don't like...I dislike the fact that signing a three-year contract is required."

"At the time I was using it, I would've focused more on signatures of malicious software in the cloud. I love Datto, and I know they're on the right path, but I probably would've focused more on the operating system update management. When you go from the desk to the cloud or from the server room to the cloud, everything changes. Everything is different. You're not in control of your servers anymore. It is from the Active Directory management perspective and not from the perspective of zero-day attacks or other similar things. At the time, more focus on zero-day attacks and business email compromise (BEC) would've been a better protection factor than just educating about how many of these attacks have occurred."

"To better integrate compatibility with other operating systems, in addition to Windows Server."

"I don't have any feedback to provide in terms of features that may be lacking."

"At the time I was using it, I would've focused more on signatures of malicious software in the cloud."

"Datto chose to build their own cloud, instead of leveraging AWS, Azure or GCP. It looks, feels and behaves like a beta product (lacks maturity)."

"The product's scalability features could be even better."

"The fact that Datto Cloud Continuity is not cheap is one of the aspects that I don't like about the product, making it an area where improvements are required."

More Datto Cloud Continuity cons

"We were interested in investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in VMware. VMware right now is one of the biggest solutions in the world, in terms of the IT environment. But for Cloud Connect it's not. I think they need the cloud version to reach more customers, to enable the cloud version to be used by more people."

"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."

"I think the pricing could be improved and I also think archiving could be improved."

"Some of the features I'd like added to the solution would be coming up in version 12, so the only area for improvement I saw in Veeam Cloud Connect was the need to have more support for object storage."

"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."

"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication."

"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."

"The solution could improve the stability."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As the company grew from business continuity—or what used to be called business BCDR—they brought on services. Certain services, such as SaaS protection, were a value-add, but you would expect to pay for them. They are not going to be free. It is just the life that you live when you're evaluating software vendors, partners, etc. There is going to be some form of a base offering, and then there are going to be different tiers that you need to get up to a better level."

"I rate the product price an eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."

"The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."

"The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."

"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."

"I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
