Great backup for Azure infrastructure

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Microsoft Azure Backup from other similar products?

The initial setting of Azure Backup is remarkably easy and straightforward when compared to other cloud environments, I haven't been able to locate an easy-to-use tool for maintaining conventional backups on other significant cloud platforms. I was pleasantly surprised to learn how simple it is to manage backups with Azure Backup after anticipating having to do some of the custom programming and scheduling that I had to do in the past.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I particularly enjoy this product/service because it allows anyone to create a virtual machine (VM) or backup their data with just a few clicks, without the requirement for technical expertise. Even a layperson can use it because of how simple it is.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The need for high bandwidth

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Azure Backup is suitable for companies of various sizes, with varying amounts of data, it offers pay-as-you-go model plus there is a reduction in cost of backup hardware maintenance and time consumption. The interface is friendly and easy to configure and it does not require your company to have a backup expert.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
