We have been using it to backup customer servers for local and cloud backups for years with (thankfully) few issues. When there is an issue I typically have to figure it out because their support is less than helpful.
Pros
It backs up our servers. It's relatively easy to configure and sends comprehensive reports and success/failure of the backup.
Cons
The support. I don't typically contact support, but when I do I have a real problem. Support will respond with a terse and often incorrect fix and immediately close my support ticket. When I reply back I get snarky and rude replies.

The software has done an excellent job. I have had very little need to interact with the software over the last several years.

Cons
I have not cons at this time. Support has been excellent.

We've been using BackupAssist for 7 or 8 years now and have been very happy with it. We back up our servers to a NAS device in another one of our buildings. The backups always run as expected and we receive a detailed report via email after the backup is complete. We've never tried the bare metal restores but the file restore process is quick and easy. The software is also updated very regularly.
Pros
This software offers so much bang for the buck. It backs up our servers reliably and consistently and also runs scans for potential ransomware during the backups. Restoring data is easy when it's needed. Add-ons are available for Hyper-V, Exchange, SQL, and cloud backup.
Cons
While I like having the ransomware scans, they can significantly increase the time it takes to complete the backup. It can be turned off though.
