  • Comet Backup is easy use and offers great features automatic backups and strong data encryption it works well with various platforms and cloud storage options, making it perfect for my needs.
  • There are many things that i like about Comet Backup some of them are. Good user interface, clean dashboards, user friendly software as well as very much cost effective.
  • The application provides a very easy way to back up with enough flexibility in the customization. The implementation and ease of use is very efficient and makes the features work better. It even integrates seamlessly with other cloud providers like azure.
  • The support has been great to deal with. Some bugs were found and they were quick to mitigate them. Backup works great. Easy API.
  • I like the ability to host my own server. Easy to setup and supports a wide range of operating systems including NAS vendors.
  • First of all, I chose this product because it had all the features I needed and was relatively affordable. Second, I’ve been using it for several years now, and there haven’t been any major issues—whenever something did come up, support was always quick to help. Third, the bulk update feature is especially useful, as it updates all the clients, so there’s no need to do it manually or set up additional automation.
  • White Label Setup. Prompt Support. Frequent Product Updates. Easy to Use Web Interface (both Client Side & Admin Side).

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Years ago (20+) we installed a lot of machinery in our plant that required multiple servers to run. We still run on the same setup today. We did virtualized our environment and maintained the same server/software solution. We started using Unitrends after we virtualized about 12 years ago. Data doesn't change much with these servers but occasionally we do have issues and Unitrends has allowed us to quickly roll back a snapshot and keep on trucking.
  • Easy to setup, easy to maintain, easy to change as our needs change. Very flexible to cover all of our backup needs.
  • Ease of use, support response time, ability to backup using VMWare, HyperV, Windows, Linux, and other type of systems. WebUI is logical and simple to understand. Unitrends Forever Cloud is an amazing solution when immutable offsite backups are needed.
  • I love their support cause I can count on them when I am not able to figure an issue. Their software is easy to use and we are able to manage it with no issues 99% of times.
  • Quick, easy to use, great customer support, the communication from the support team has been awesome.

Cons

  • Have to update the appliance hardware about every 3 years.
  • No cons really. We really like this solution a lot.
  • There isn't a lot about Unitrends Recovery Systems that I don't like, in fact, there isn't anything at all!
  • Sometimes when a big update happens, it takes time to figure where the tools are and how to figure it out again.
  • I wish I could could think of one, but at the present time, I can’t.
