Pros
Ease of setup/configuration/implementation/restoration - you don't need any of these to be difficult. Iperius is not.
Cons
Original bugs/features when first purchased in 2020. These have been fixed or eliminated resulting in a very stable product - that is continually adding more features.

Iperius is identified as the only cheap solution to esxi backups. I decided to try it and hit a problem with our firewall blocking ports. Iperius support was fast efficent and solved the issue quickly. Excellent service.
Pros
It appears to be the only product capable of backing up esxi (free) at a reasonable price.
Cons
A list of all ports required for backups/ restore across a subnet firewall would help.

Great Low Cost Backup for VMware
Reviewed on 2019/02/05
Very happy with the multitude of backup types in the full license.
Very happy with the multitude of backup types in the full license.
Pros
Love the ability to backup vmware multiple ways with multiple destinations. The price cannot be beat, and it really is a fast nightly backup when you use changed block tracking. I have used several other much more expensive products, and after trying Iperius in multiple environments, there really is no comparison, Iperius outperforms them all when a cost vs. performance ratio is analyzed.
Cons
If I had to choose a small negative about the software, I would say the English translation could be improved a bit, I have found some grammatical errors. Many versions ago this led to some difficulty configuring, but they seem to be improving in many areas with every new version.

I've implemented this backup software for some of my particular costumers
Reviewed on 2018/04/28
Pros
Version free for file backup is very good and stable, and it´s capable to give IP admins the option to get backups with certain backup policies for retention. If you have a DB engine and it is capable to backup itself to a file, this can be backed up with same policies
Cons
The way to organize incremental or differential backups is not easy to understand, maybe you are expected to get a file for each day the backup task is configured and the validity of it, and this is not in that way

Pros
Great availability of features and choice of backup (VMs, exchange backup, SQL server backup), among many destinations (ftp, NAS, cloud [e.g. Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive]).
Cons
There are a few places where buttons don't follow Windows default layout recommendations which can be a bit confusing. But not much to complain about really.

Overall its a great product and has worked flawlessly for me and my customers for years. I think I started using your backup 5 or 6 years ago. I've installed on 75 computer systems for myself and my customers. Love the product.
Pros
I like the type of backups available, I mostly use the hard drive image and backup to FTP server. I've used your boot disk to recover multiple systems where hard drives have crashed, via the drive image/clone backup. Worked great. Also like that it can run a service, just have to make sure that you setup to run as administrator. There are just many great features incorporated into your software.
Cons
The one thing that really gets to be a pain, is if you insert a thumb drive or any other device that changes the disk layout. All scheduled backups fail during the list disk part of the backup, cause the disk layout has changed. Even though the drive letters remain the same. Would be great if you could solve that problem. Thats the only con that I have at this time..
