Manage and protect Office 365 Exchange, OneDrive and SharePoint data with automated cloud backup. Built on Veeam Software. Multi-Tenant, selfservice portal, 30 days free.
Comments: Intuitive, flexible and fully functional. These are the words that aptly described my experience with CloudAlly's excellent backup service. Prior to using CloudAlly, I had tweaked and worked with a couple of online backup services which at the best, required a medium to long term learning curve.Signing up to CloudAlly's service as a first time user, the simple, intuitive dashboard that clearly indicated the most important features - backup and restore was a pleasant discovery and a big relief. Navigation was a breeze and I got my backup procedure up and running in less than a minute (yes, less than 60 seconds). I concluded my entire backup exercise in a couple of minutes but I would definitely expect that the more data I need to backup, the longer this procedure would take.On a positive note, when you are done with the initial backup, CloudAlly will keep tag of subsequent changes and adds only new files or new versions of files when required.The list of accounts I can backup is quite impressive and it includes: Salesforce, Yahoo Mail, Amazon S3, Onedrive, Office 365 Exchange, Box, Google Apps and much more. If you are looking at combining two or more services or accounts, it is easy to select which service or account you want to backup on CloudAlly.I also discovered another agreeable feature: Setting up multiple users (admins) to access the account.
This is a great feature in case you need work to be done by someone else. It means I can delegate tasks and know who did what and when via the audit trail.Interestingly, CloudAlly's restore process did not overwrite my currently existing data.
As a matter of fact, all the data processed with CloudAlly are tagged 'CloudAlly Restore' so you can easily know where your data came from when you perform a restore operation. Great feature!Did I mention that I organized my backup and restore procedure as a first time user without help? Yes I did and I should say that sometimes a user manual can be more difficult (to read or use) than the actual application, so I was pleased to discover that CloudAlly's comprehensive user guide (which is freely available to all subscribers) did not fit into this `difficult to read' category.Cloud to cloud back up is a must have for everyone on the Internet and kudos to Team CloudAlly for delivering an efficient, easy to use tool that makes the backup process a stress-free exercise. Easy to use - Easy to sign up, simple interface and clickable buttons2.
Affordable for companies especially for annual subscriptions3. Data is safe, secure and encryptedOverall: I had used other backup solutions but wanted something more secure and reliable. After doing some research online, I stumbled on CloudAlly and I almost dismissed it until I saw the 15 day free trial. So I knew I had nothing to lose, and if anything, 15 days is long enough to know whether this is a great backup app or another joke.So, I proceeded to sign up, and it was so easy because unlike many platforms that ask for an email, username, password, company name and God knows what else (all these details can be off-putting to new users, and there's absolutely no reason to ask too much from an entirely new user), CloudAlly allows sign up using your Google or Facebook account. My Gmail is always open on my computer so, this was a breeze.After signing up, I was logged in immediately and what amazed me was the simplest interface I have ever seen on a cloud backup platform. No clutter, annoying ads, pop ups and anything else that would make you locate the exit button. And with their simple interface comes easily accessible buttons directing you where to click in order to back up, and where to click when storing your data.One exceptional feature of this app is that unlike other apps like Google apps, Salesforce and Office 365, which rely on the trash folder for data recovery (data can be lost upon purging the trash folder), CloudAlly backs up everything to the cloud, making recovery super easy.
It's one of the safest apps available since it's ISO 27001 certified and HIPAA compliant. It's very secure because it has Amazon S3 secure storage and it's encrypted as well.What's more, it starts from as low as $2 per month per user for 5GB data to $3 per month per user for anything more than 5GB. And annual subscriptions seem more affordable for companies because CloudAlly offers 2 months free subscription on annual plans. Highly recommended! Pros: It's very easy to add cloud services and schedule a backup as well as retention times.
Daily status emails indicate success or failure of the backups. Failure messages include steps to resolve the issue.
We have successfully restored data on a few occasions. Overall CloudAlly is easy to setup and use. The price is in line with expectations.Cons: The status messages can be confusing in some cases, with one email indicating you need to resolve an account problem with one of your cloud services, and the next indicating you need to contact technical support to assist with the problem. The billing addresses have changed twice since we started using the software, and we pay a foreign currency fee for payment to a non-US company. It appears to be an Israeli held company at the moment.Overall: Daily backups of all cloud services. Pros: Discount pricing, easy to setup and use, menus are straightforward and not confusing.Cons: Hard to say.
It does what it is supposed to do and does it well.Overall: Having migrated to Office 365 last year, we needed an easy to implement a backup solution for our Office 365/Exchange email for our 45 person charity. CloudAlly just works. It takes less than an hour from purchase to completion to configure everything, which is exactly the kind of solution I was looking for.
They have been constantly upgrading their software and making improvements, and they have really worked with us pricing wise being a small charity. When you need to restore a mailbox or a folder or download a PST archive, it literally takes 5-10 clicks from login to done. Easy is good.Recommendations to other buyers: The people at CloudAlly are friendly and responsive when I have questions and they have been good to us. I expect to use this software for at least the next 5 years. Pros: Quick and easy. Restores are very quick. Drill down to just a file (or search) has greatly improved since I first starting using CloudAlly.
Support is outstanding.Cons: sharepoint/onedrive are all listed and just searching for a particular user is not available at this time. I have to scroll through all the backups to find a user I am looking forOverall: I find the product easy to use and the support I have received has been outstanding. When ever I am having an issue or cannot find something, support is quickly there to resolve or assist me. Searching on OneDrive/SharePoint is difficult still at this time but plans to resolve this is underway. I would definitely suggest CloudAlly to other customers.Recommendations to other buyers: searching for OneDrive is underway and this should be resolved in the coming months.
Pros: Cloud Ally is extremely easy to use and integrates with a variety of services. Its very easy to set it up and then forget about it, but is there when you need it! We use it to backup Office 365 exchange email accounts, Box accounts, and Sharepoint. Its come in handy to recover lost files and deleted emails.Cons: Sometimes it can be a little difficult finding emails to restore.
I also wish that there was a global search option for emails. Currently, you can only search 1 mailbox backup at a time. Pros: CloudAlly is a simple to use service that allows you to back up your Office 365 files. You can backup contacts, documents, and emails. There is never any fear of losing something important ever again.I love the fact that there are no limits to how much is stored. They never remove anything so even if you accidentally delete something and don't realize it, it'll always be available in your CloudAlly account. Once you set up the account, you can rest assured the backups happen in a timely manner.
You don't even have to go back into the account until you need something.Cons: The only thing I don't like is that while it does back up your Office 365 files, your subscription does not necessarily cover Sharepoint or OneDrive files. Those are separate subscriptions that you can add to your account. It might not be clear to users at first is my only problem. Still worth purcahsing, subscription is cheap!
Pros: I loved the ease of use.Cons: Oh, how I wish I could just back up the whole hard drive at once!Overall: I was hesitant at first, didn't want to risk losing my data where I might not be able to retrieve it ever again! But, I was pleasantly surprised, one, because it was so simple to do the back up. Once I got my feet wet by backing up my gmail files, (it took a minute!) I checked to see that all was ok and let it rest for 24 hours. Later, I found just as I had set the schedule, my activities of the next day had been backed up too and this was great.Nothing to think about, takes a huge load off my shoulders, and the added bonus of knowing my stuff is safe and I need to go lugging an external hard disk along is so refreshing. I am sold, all that can be backed up will be backed up on CloudAlly and hopefully, it will help me get one more step closer to being organized.Thank you CloudAlly Team.Recommendations to other buyers: Please include features that allow us to back-up everything not just Apps.
