Syncrify Erfahrungen

Syncrify

Kommentare: Great technical support from their team. Easy install on Linux. Ability to offer historical backups. Detailed reports. Low cost which is a huge plus.

Vorteile:

Syncrify Is the best product if you wish to setup your own backup solution

Nachteile:

The UI/UX needs improvement. Apart from that I see no other cons.

Awesome software for IT Consultants

Kommentare: I have been using Syncrify for over 4 years now. The software has been amazing. It allows me to easily setup and administer my own cloud backup solution for my clients. I have only had to reach out to support 3 times in all those years and that was mostly just questions on how I can further use the software. Support has always been amazing. They worked on answering my questions before even verifying I had an active service contract. They care more about supporting their customers then confirming these customers were keeping up to date with paying for their service contracts. Couldn't be happier with my experience with them.

Vorteile:

It is extremely powerful software for the price. The UI is very intuitive for the end user and the administrator. The support and the cost of the software in unbelievably inexpensive.

Nachteile:

I would like a direct interface from the UI to push data to a direct cloud storage provider. ie Azure, Google, Amazon ect..

A little too complicated

Kommentare: I would say that this would make a great backup solution for a small office. Very easy for the end user to have backup their files in the background. For the administrator, a little bit more work to set up than I would like.

Vorteile:

Great idea to plant a sample photo in ones home folder to be able to check for cryptoware. I assume that's the first file that gets backed up each day. If that file has changed, there's no point in backing up the rest!

Nachteile:

This took way too long to get set up. Once set up, there seemed to be so much to prepare to actually get a backup going.

Syncrify is a great Self Hosted Backup program

Kommentare: Client backups are now handled and we know where the files are storage and we know we can restore very quickly because of self hosting.

Vorteile:

Software works great for backups, its self hosted with many options including offsite cloud storage, a cloud file syncing program and more . We mainly use it to backup client laptops which is way better for us to use a self hosted program like Syncrify versus a 3rd party cloud program that we have no control over.

Nachteile:

Storage space get used quickly, I would like to see some deduplication and compression functionality added.

Great software for basic DRaaS implimentation

Kommentare: We use it for our managed backup clients and ourselves and it has been a great addition to our service offering.

Vorteile:

That I can host this myself on my own system. Brand it to my own brand and provide a unified service front.

Nachteile:

Would really like the ability to manage just how many days a backup is retained vs how big of a backup you can have.

Great Solution For Self Hosted Backup Needs

Kommentare: Overall, exceptional. I've been able to make Syncrify integrate with my MSP platform in a way that does everything I would expect of a fully integrated solution and I'm in full control of the process and data.

Vorteile:

Most of my customers prefer / require self-hosted backup versus an anonymous provider. I'm able to use Syncrify and host the backup environment myself (reducing long term costs) and very tightly integrate with the various processes needed to satisfy my customers business and technical needs.

Nachteile:

Limited integration with external management frameworks (particularly those commonly used by MSP's).

Hands Off Backup Software

Kommentare: It's been a good experience though i thought there would be more updates. It seems like the

Vorteile:

I like that this software could be installed on a NAS rather than a bulky Windows server. Maybe that's an option, but with my last backup solution, it was the only option. Deployment is easy for new users.

Nachteile:

I was a little surprised that each client installation took a license. My initial thought was that each customer in the list would utilize a license, not each installation.

Simple and effective

Kommentare: We needed a backup product that did not break the bank. We do not have thousands of servers but there was nothing that fit our needs that did not break the bank.

Vorteile:

I like the ease of use for backups, for our needs and number of devices it works great. The last few releases added a few more features to track your backups and usage.

Nachteile:

Initial setup for what stuff to backup takes a bit of time and numerous clicks. Linux setup is a bit manual when you don't have a gui on server.

Quality product for the investment

Vorteile:

I have used Syncrify for several years with few problems. As a programmer myself I know that the software is constantly being improved. I use the software to do backup for small businesses, and when I have any issues the staff is prompt to respond. They are able to solve problems and respond to queries in a professional manner, and now since they have perpetual pricing the software is even more bang for the buck....

Nachteile:

No real issues. When it is setup, you have to make sure you are backing up what is needed, as it defaults to your profile files on PC's.

Protection against ransomware - business continuity

Kommentare: We use the product to protect against ransomware, to maintain backups at a second site and to minimize our Recovery Time Objective (RTO). The fact that the server software can be installed on a NAS or a linux machine has the potential to make it a very economical solution for business. The licensing costs per profile are quite low and very competitive. My highest priority was to have a backup system that did not rely on windows file sharing and could be placed on a separate domain or behind a transparent firewall for maximum protection. Syncrify achieves those goals.

Vorteile:

The software is easy to install and configure and offers valuable features such as versioning. This is very important for ransomware protection as it may be necessary to roll back to a previous point in time. The ability to take a local copy, move it to the server and seed the backup is also a good feature for businesses using off site backup

Nachteile:

The command line interface was not easy to understand or use

Heavy one!

Vorteile:

Stable, quick, responsive, easy to use as an administrator

Nachteile:

The only thing i dislike is when you want to backup a PST file for a customer. Sometimes everything's fine, but sometimes there are some glitch that you don't know why. But i must say that, every backup system has difficulty when you have to backup a big PST file.

Life-saver

Kommentare: I had a prior solution that I used to provide a monitored online backup product for a few of my clients that didn't want to manage their own backups. The prior solution suddenly decided to discontinue that product, which left me in the lurch -- obligated to provide the service for these clients, but with no immediate means to do so. The software trial allowed me to almost immediately resolve this problem, and when I had questions for technical support, I received a quick response -- and by individuals who were competent and knowledgeable -- the tech support skipped the usual "tier 1" completely, and started with the kind of support one would expect from "tier 2" -- which was wonderful.

Vorteile:

Syncrify was easy to set up and get running immediately -- and the server portion could run on Ubuntu Server.

Nachteile:

I wish I could have more fine-grained control and that notifications were easier to set up.

We were looking for cheap software to perform backups in a private cloud, and we found it!

Vorteile:

Robust. Once installed you forget it: it always works.

Nachteile:

Missing the possibility of moving backups on the server from one mount point to another, it is still done manually without too many complications.

Backup for my clients

Kommentare: I currently have 25 of my clients backing up to my server via Syncrify. The program runs smoothly and support is always excellent. The web admin console looks good.

Vorteile:

Easy to use, does not use lots of resources to run in the background, access to files from anywhere

Nachteile:

Would like to get notifications on missed backups from clients, also would like something similar to backup tablets and phones, or perhaps a mobile app to manage the interface.

review

Kommentare: makes me money, hope it never let's me down with a missed backup i didn't catch

Vorteile:

it works, low resource overhead, i wouldn't recommend it to anyone, because it is my hidden gem

Nachteile:

if it freezes don't always know, exchange backup methodology stops creating pst's so don't know not getting complete backup, needs better command and control dashboard

Signal Systems Uses Syncrify

Vorteile:

The install and setup was very easy, we had our server side running in moments and connected clients equally quick. Ease of use is key.

Nachteile:

During our first setup, If you have to setup a client the second time, we had issues with everything needed to be re synchronized.

Great Backup Software that packs a punch

Kommentare: Overall the makers and the software give us exactly what we needed in a cloud backup product.

Vorteile:

The price and performance is awesome for a on prem solution. The support is like none other.

Nachteile:

The user interface is sub par and not so pretty but whom needs that when you have the functionality

Perfect Tool For Private Cloud

Kommentare: Syncrify has proven to be the right tool to build my private cloud. It offers everything I needed and more.
Very reliable and easy to use.

Vorteile:

Ability to restore previous versions. Delayed removal of deleted file.

Nothing. it will be nice to have mobile App but this is not a deal breaker.

There is not a translation in french. There is no support on french too

Should include a service when the server is unrisponsive, send a mail with that.
