About Cove Data Protection

Cove Data Protection, from N-able, is a cloud-first backup and disaster recovery service for servers, workstations, and Microsoft 365™, all managed from a multitenant web-based dashboard.

Cove was created and optimized for the cloud, so incremental backups are up to 60 times smaller than with traditional image backup products. This allows you to back up more often, and the SaaS delivery format reduces administrative time, lowering your cost of service delivery. Storage in our private cloud is included, with data centers worldwide.

Cove Data Protection™ offers backup that is up to 60X more efficient than traditional image backup, allowing you to back up directly to our private cloud as often as every 15 minutes. Because Cove is a SaaS solution, back-end administration, such as patching and updating, is handled for you, and managed cloud storage is included in your price, making local backup storage optional.

Cove delivers full image recovery, as well as fast file/folder restore, including the option to set up a recovery environment in Microsoft Azure. Cove's architecture also helps reduce your attack surface, as primary backup storage is isolated by default, off the local network and out of the reach of ransomware that may be there.

    SolarWinds saved the day when disaster struck one of our clients, we were able to restore everything quickly and easily as if nothing had happened. Common backup and rescue media is easy to create. Customer support was easy to deal with. We have experienced no issues using SolarWinds Backup and recommend it to all of our clients.

    Pros

    SolarWinds Backup is easy and efficient to use. The web interface is easy to use. Just simply install on the devices and you are ready to go. You own your own data. There are no storage limits which is an asset.

    Cons

    There are a few limits on the scheduling features but we have managed to work around them.

    Cloud backup that works well for Hyper-V or VMWare.

    Reviewed on 2023/11/07

    Pros

    Our Hyper-V backups work very well. We get a daily report about each backup with detailed analytics and information. We love the cost and value of the product as well as the peace of mind of having immutable backups off-site. It also allows for a local "Speed vault" so local copies of the backups can be used for quick restores.

    Cons

    I misunderstood some of the initial setup of the product and was using it incorrectly. My fault, but support made me aware of the changes I needed to make and now we have it humming right along!

    Being charged for storage not actually used. My very first backup was a server. Someone had a 5TB external plugged in as I set up the backup. It was then excluded from the backup. It never backed up the external drive, but I was still charged for the storage because it was "selected" for a single day. I explained this to their support team, and their response was, "This is how we charge." I will include screenshots to show.One month after signing up, I get an email notification of a price increase. Then if that was not bad enough, they sprung this,"Oh, you are under contract and can't terminate without a fee." This was NEVER explained to me by ANY of their agents until I tried to leave. These business practices are horrific. Unless you don't care about throwing away money, stay far away.I have never had such a bad taste in my mouth. These kinds of bad business practices were the kind of thing that made me leave Solarwinds. I will never consider doing business with them ever again.

    Pros

    It was easy to setup for office 365 and easy to recover items in 365. It was easy to locate and restore files in server backups

    Cons

    Difficulty in setting up. No help in setting up. How they charge. Poor customer service

    plays a crucial role in Disaster recovery as we follow strict compliance. Managing Multiple VM servers, backup, encryptions, or restore easily in operations in though a bit worried about its console.

    Pros

    It is a next-generation product in backup very flexible and feasible to handle. backup solution's primary use case is to handle multiple products which can be able to support multiple platforms and along with scalability and feasibility in utilization.

    Cons

    Console to user roles created like especially admin is not such great in performing actions and Multiple servers handling is also a challenge.
