Carbonite Safe vs. SysCloud

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

SysCloud does a good job of performing cloud-based backups of cloud platforms such as Google Workspace.

• 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.

Incentivized

• Quickly performs backups in the cloud.
• Quickly restores data.
• Has the ability to employ rules and send alerts (i.e. if someone sends PII via email)

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Pricing for school districts.
• A la carte licensing/pricing.
• More user friendly interface.

For the clients we have using this service, we fully plan to renew the subscription. However, that may change as our client's business grows and they have a need to add visualization and other server types to their environment

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.

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.

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.

The district will be transitioning to Datto Backupify. Datto Backupify is more financially suitable to the needs of the district. Additionally, some of the features in SysCloud are available within the Google Workspace Admin Console.

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• SysCloud was costly and we were unable to continue the service.
• SysCloud performed well and met the needs of the district.
