Considered Both Products
Carbonite Safe
Chose Carbonite Safe
The competitors offer a cloud solution, but in more of a clouded document management way. There is no way to live edit files with Carbonite Safe. Dropbox and OneDrive offer you the ability to open the file and use it from the cloud.
Chose Carbonite Safe
Ease of use. Carbonite Safe is superior when it comes to this. Again customer service. You can not beat their staff or technicians.
Chose Carbonite Safe
Carbonite Safe is the only one that I know of that is autonomous. The other solutions require the user to place things in a certain spot or to copy it manually. Carbonite Safe is "set it and forget it".
Chose Carbonite Safe
We originally used a backup product from Microsoft. It was so glitchy and difficult to set up. We spent a lot of time on the phone with their tech team trying to get it to work. They would come up with different reasons and fixes but in the end, it couldn't do the job so we …
Chose Carbonite Safe
Carbonite Safe is a great solution for startup entities. It ranks nicely with Acronis and Carbonite Server Backup. Carbonite Safe is very good for backing up workstations including home computers. This is a good solution for home office users. Acronis does image level backups …
Chose Carbonite Safe
We use Mozy in this client setting because he was more familiar with the user interface and workflow than the other products.
Chose Carbonite Safe
Amazon Cloud Drive deleted TONS of photos I backed up years ago. I'll never trust it again. I liked Dropbox better than Box b/c of its interface and intuitiveness. Google Drive is easy but doesn't back up automatically.
Chose Carbonite Safe
Mozy Pro is a great product for entry level and small businesses. It provides simple, effective backups with little to no technical expertise being required by the end users to benefit from it. I found that Code42's CrashPlan, was better when our storage needs increased …
Chose Carbonite Safe
Mozy was the easiest to administer and setup.
Chose Carbonite Safe
Mozy provides more enterprise features such as AD integration, but Crashplan has better plans when backing up large amounts of data. Additionally when restoring data, Crashplan displays file versions as a drill down on each file making it easy to find a specific version you are …
Chose Carbonite Safe
While Mozy Pro gets the job done, Cloudberry is better for business. Cloudberry provides backing up to Amazon Web services, however, requires a higher level tech set it up. Crashplan has also been great and is unlimited.
Chose Carbonite Safe
I have used different products such as Carbonite, Unitrends and Datto. Mozy is on a very similar level as Carbonite but has been more reliable overall from my experience. Unitrends and Datto have more complete products that offer a strong combination for local and cloud backup …
Chose Carbonite Safe
I haven't used any other products in the cloud backup market. We chose Mozy because at the time they had the most robust central management console. Pricing with Mozy was going to be cheaper in the long run. Brand recognition also had something to do with it.
NinjaOne
Chose NinjaOne
We came from Manage Engine and it is a night and day difference. I would never imagine going back after working with NinjaOne
Chose NinjaOne
We have used many RMM providers and the UI, cost and experience has all been better with NinjaOne.

Datto wasn’t able to improve anything in the three years that we use them, in fact they were sold to and immediately started trying to sell us the other services they had.
Chose NinjaOne
this integrates with Splashtop and works well. I am happy with the integration and prefer it over Teamviewer. This is included in our subscription and works with a few clicks. Users can accept / deny the request and if no one is there we can still remote in. Makes servicing …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne is very simple to use and navigate. There are fewer layers of pages to navigate to get to what you want. This is a time saver and it makes it easier to find what you are looking for.
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne feels like a smaller company, and I mean that in a good way. Their support is quick and helpful and because of our size we are escalated directly to their level 2 support. Our account manager is eager to assist and get ideas/issues to the right people and put those …
Chose NinjaOne
We liked the per device pricing and the UI of the platform most when we decided to leave Datto RMM. We believe that NinjaOne's constant development to improve the product has been really helpful. The quality of the community posts with scripts we can use to automate things …
Chose NinjaOne
Prior to NinjaOne, our IT management was a blank slate. We knew we needed something, and we wanted to ensure we were making the best decision for our organization. We attended demos and talked with sales reps, sales engineers, etc. At the end of the day, it was the relationship …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne isn't the cheapest or the most expensive. However, it has the most functionality out of the other solutions that we looked at.
Chose NinjaOne
So far NinjaOne has been more stable to use vs the items listed above. It has been easier to setup and go. Easy to setup end user equipment with a quick setup file that an end user can run if you asked them to. The portal is quick to update and quick to allow you to start …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne has a much better web interface than Automate, in terms of both usability and function. The endpoint search function in NinjaOne is very good with results, and each endpoint agent page has a great overview of the endpoints health, NinjaOne event history, etc. The …
Chose NinjaOne
About 2 years ago we evaluated about a dozen similar utilities that are all aimed at managing and maintaining endpoint from several customers at the same time. At the end of the evaluation, NinjaOne was chosen based on several criteria specifically targeting the use case that …
Chose NinjaOne
Mainly used them to try and push out installs for NinjaOne. But NinjaOne has their own way of pushing out the installs through AD and it made my life so much easier getting this deployed.
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne offers the same feature set that the big players offer, for a fraction of the price. when looking at RMM solutions, there are several large companies out there that claim that they do everything well, but what we have found is that they often do many things, but not …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne feels like it is way beyond its competitors. Their UI is fantastic, with the exception of no Dark Mode. It is very responsive and easy to navigate. Also, NinjaOne bills monthly with no contract commitment. This makes it much more accessible to smaller and medium-sized …
Chose NinjaOne
The systems screen on NinjaOne is simpler and has more information. You can customize details/columns per technician. CMD, PowerShell, registry emulate the windows look and feel. Pulseway just gives you a big white page to type commands and it doesn’t respond as seamlessly. …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne has what it takes and is very cost effective for what it provides an IT team. We would not be able to do what we do without it.

Cost comparison wise, NinjaOne is the best option we found that has such a wide breadth of capabilities like it does.
Chose NinjaOne
Ninja does a few things better than Goverlan Reach, like the integrated ticketing. But honestly, Goverlan was much more user-friendly for everything else. N-able has a lot of features, but they're not easy to use, if you can even find them.
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne has more overall features than these competitors bundled in their package. Both of these other products have separate add-ons that will accomplish the additional features that NinjaOne bundles in. While it seems that both may be slightly more powerful when it comes to …
Chose NinjaOne
Ninja is much easier to use that anything I've worked with in the past. We selected Ninja because we felt the learning curve for the team would be the fastest, and the roadmap for the product shows its evolving quickly. Can't say that for many of the other platforms I've …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne isn't as versatile as N-able. NinjaOne doesn't have as many features or settings as N-able.
N-able is far more complex, which isn't always a good thing. For vary large-scale MSPs, it might be a better choice. However, for a small to medium-sized team, NinjaOne is an …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne was cheaper and had a more robust platform. Other competitors didn't offer the same number of features or customer support.
Chose NinjaOne
Like all software you have certain features that you don't get in others, specific software like Zoho Assist give great remote access, probably better then Teamviwer (1 of NinjaOne's remote Access Solutions) however you have to have a contract and license for each one and the …
Chose NinjaOne
NinjaOne blows Connectwise out of the water. You can take a college kid right out of school and put them in front of NinjaOne and they will have no issues at all. IT is that easy to use! Connectwise on the other hand uses an academy to get you trained and ready. Yeah if you …

Likelihood to Recommend
As described earlier I would warn prospective users of their past behavior in terms of changing plan structures regardless of impact to their customers. But they did provide an expedited method to migrate your data to other backup service providers, and their product is high quality so it balances out somewhat. With that in mind Mozy has positioned itself well for both the individual and the corporate markets, and works well in both environments. Their integration with AD and administrative features do make them attractive as a corporate tool (enterprise version). In the end though, especially for the individual or small business, it may come down to how much data you need backed up. Mozy is definitely not the cheapest option on the market

Whether you are an MSP who needs an all-in-one solution for device management, or you are in-house IT who needs a single pane of glass to manage your devices, NinjaOne fits the bill as a top tier solution. The amount of flexibility in scaling to your organization's size is impressive as the platform can be as simple as just using it for remote access, all the way up to deploying comprehensive automation packages in the form of a compound condition that bases its actions on the results of other conditions or scripts.

Pros
  • It is so easy to see what files are backed up according to the color dots next to the files. Green indicates backed up and brown indicates that it will be backed up on the next round.
  • We get email updates from Carbonite to help us stay current on our usage.
  • I am confident that our files are backed up and can be easily be recovered. I have been through the process and was able to regain just the files I needed.

  • With Ninja, we are able to have all of our IT tools and management under one umbrella making it extremely easy to keep an eye on all of our servers and workstations.
  • Their support team is OUTSTANDING and gives quick and helpful answers to our questions. Our account manager calls us personally to review any issues and ensure we are running smoothly.
  • Ninja gives us automated patch management of our important devices, and has a nice security log to see what's been done.

Cons
  • I would like to see backups for programs that I have installed on my machine. For instance I use Adobe CS6 and MS Office among other things. Instead of having to reinstall all these programs on my new machine, I would love for Mozy to be able to save the programs somehow and I can restore them as they were on the old machine with the same almost one-click process that I use to restore files. Basically like Time Machine, but for Windows.

  • NinjaOne does support Mac, however I would like to have more options for automation and scheduled task on Mac devices.
  • I would like it if NinjaOne also provided an MDM solution.
  • It would be nice is NinjaOne could integrate a PAM solution as well.

I have not had any real issues with NinjaOne and as long as it keeps doing what it is meant to do, I do not plan on looking elsewhere. I need software to be stable and NinjaOne is stable.

Usability
Out of all the vendor we deal with they are one of the best when it comes to customers service. Reliable,you can reach them by telephone easily, Great overall can not say anything to the contrary. Usibility is excellent. I recommend them highly whether you need a simple backup ofr more complex for servers etc.

Ninja's interface is clean and simple. Overall usability from an interface perspective is good. Some items, policies and scripting for instance, are a bit cumbersome and it's really not clear how to implement with a best practice mind-site. Ninja RMM got the job done for us but as we pushed our needs more into automation and efficiency we felt it wasn't keeping up with our speed of growth. There is definitely usability in the product, and it will get the job done, but there are other RMM's out there that fit better in our business.

I have not had to utilize Carbonite Safe support too often, but they have always been very good. There are very few technical issues so their support does not come in handy, unless one needs assistance with installation or setup. In cases when it is needed, my support tickets with Carbonite Safe have always gone well.

Support has been very responsive and my account rep Brian K. has communicated with me continuously making sure we had everything we need. Not like other MDMs where they sign you up and that's the last you hear from them. NinjaOne makes sure you use the product to its best application and you are successful and continue as the product features grow.

Mozy Pro is a great product for entry level and small businesses. It provides simple, effective backups with little to no technical expertise being required by the end users to benefit from it. I found that Code42's CrashPlan, was better when our storage needs increased dramatically, and users wanted a fresher interface than Mozy offered. We outgrew it, essentially. For small businesses, Mozy is tough to beat, but as you venture into the Enterprise market, Code42's product might be a better fit.

We used Auto Task and Datto. We felt that NinjaOne was a more user friendly platform. There was a large training curve for new employees to learn to use Auto Task. We have noticed a shortened training curve for NinjaOne. We really like the layout and the Ninja Academy.

Return on Investment
  • Mozy is very affordable and pricing is very flexible and easy to add more space when needed. This allows us to only pay for what we need.
  • Having our critical files protected is the most important thing. The fact that it doesn't cost much for us to do that is just a bonus.

  • NinjaOne is a monthly payment with no commitment, this is much better suited to an MSP than other competitors that try to wrap you up into a 3-5-year contract. As an MSP, we could lose a client at any moment and it sucks to be stuck in a contract where we can't lower our agent counts.
  • NinjaOne helps my techs be more efficient and productive. Saving time and money.
