What differentiates Microsoft Azure Backup from other similar products?
It has shown to be a trustworthy backup solution. With backup picture drives that have been mounted, file-level restoration has also been made possible. The Backup Agent appears to operate without any further maintenance. The best feature of this software is the ability to backup Azure virtualized machines with Azure Backup
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
Even when a client has anything in the cloud, it might be useful and occasionally serves as the starting point for a cloud journey. To ensure business continuity, you can restore a computer to the cloud using a restore set. Azure Backup offers tier levels well below the expenditure that non-IT enterprises like us are able to provide.
What do you dislike most about this product?
A restoration that is like for like is not achievable. Additionally, there is no way to exclude drives from holding files. Licensing models are difficult. Azure still has to develop as an enterprise-ready platform in areas like backup and recovery. The only issue might be that the restore process' success notification cannot be configured.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
Its user interface is approachable and suitable with Azure's visual brand and usage. Even for individuals with no prior expertise establishing and administering backup settings, its basic configuration is simple. In contrast to the more complicated backup systems, Azure Backup functions fairly smoothly and there are hardly any failed backup jobs. It simply finishes successfully each and every time.
