June 24, 2022

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Datto Alto is the main onsite / cloud backup solution that we offer our customers. We had used other cloud / onsite solutions in the past but found that Datto was the easiest to implement for our customers and offered us the best support. We currently have over 30 customers that use Datto Alto for their onsite / cloud backup of data.

Pros

offsite data backup
restoration of data
backup verification

Cons

local backup size limitations

Likelihood to Recommend

Datto Alto has been best suited for our customers who do not have an extremely large amount of data (Less than 2TB). We have had issues with customers that had limitations to how useful the cloud option was based on their internet speed (Rural)

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Datto Alto to backup single servers at client sites. If a client has a single server that does more than just file and folder hosting, Datto Alto is a must to meet our goal of getting a client back up and running from a total server failure. Beyond the business continuity of having the server run in the cloud during the repair is when the new hardware is ready to deploy, it makes restoring a breeze and does not require major technical expertise.

Pros

Support.
Consistency of Backup.
Ability to test backups with scripts.
Reporting.

Cons

Ability to differentiate between Workstations and Servers to help with agent count.
Longer warranty cycles.
Automatic device registration.

Likelihood to Recommend

Fantastic for a small site with a single server to back up with less than 1TB of data. Great for scenarios where business continuity is OK to run a little slow. Not great for scenarios where Disk Speed on the server is important (i.e. CAD files, databases, etc.). Great for restoring Active Directory.
