"When it works, It works."
3/5

What do you dislike about Arctera™ Desktop & Laptop Option?

The client agent though works most of the time, there will be occasions where it stops working for no reason at all. Troubleshooting the problem is a waste of time as nothing other than a reinstallation will resolve it.

The administration server tends to report that a backup process has failed on a client machine despite the backup completing without an error on the client side.

Reported backed up data size is not always accurate on the administration server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
