**Reviewed Date:** March 05, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Seamless backup processes can be achieved using Agentless architecture.  It addresses ease of  implementation and management.  The solution was born in the cloud and it is for the cloud.  It can be setup as public, private and even hybrid cloud.  If protects critical data including applications and databases.  Protected critical data can be in physical servers, virtual machines and even in cloud.
Restore Validation is a great tool to check if backup can be restored and can be used in DR drill because it simulates restoration without the need of target resources.

Presently, extensible storage does not support S3 compatible storage and the likes.  If VAIO can be utilized when protecting VMWare virtual machines aside from snapshot, this can be a plus factor.

Support process can sometimes be cumbersome as there is no simple process to just report a specific error without answering too many irrelevant questions first.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra has led the way in the space for over 25 years. David and his team have been perfecting this product for for over two decades. I know that my client's data is safe and sound using the Asigra technology and I can restore anything from anywhere with zero hassle. The agentless technology works flawlessly.

Asigra has always used a heavy client/server based management option.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

I really like Asigra's agentless backup system.  I can install the DS-Client on one machine in our customer's environment and it will backup every machine on that network.  I don't have to install the program on multiple machines.

Their DS-Operator and Asigra Management Console make it easy to  monitor our whole Asigra environment in one plane of glass.

Asigra's support staff is very knowledgeable and their support site has a very in depth knowledge base that has the solutions to most of the issues that have arisen in my use of the product.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Each DS-Client needs a database which is sometimes difficult for our customers.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It gives us the ability to provide BaaS to customers that are not in our hosted environment.

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2014

The best thing about Asigra is that it is a complete end to end data protection solution that provides flexible and robust data protection solution. You can backup any data type you want to. Being agentless helps in quick deployment and upgrades without any hassles.

  ### 15. Fantastic product

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Entertainment | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 20, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Agentless, security, ease of use. The documentation has largely improved since v12 and 13

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

- The new DS-User GUI. None of our customers use it.
- The Asigra certification

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

There are many but our customers don't have to worry about backups onsite

  ### 16. Asigra Backup

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Steve P. | System Administrator II, Information Technology and Services, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 22, 2014

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

This is the best backup solution I have used. Very easy to setup and very user friendly. I have administered other backup solutions like comvault, and symantec. This is by far the easiest and best solution for a Managed service provider. The ability to not have an agent on every server that needs to be backed up is great. No extra overhead on the servers. The tech support is outstanding as well. 

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

I think the event log needs some work. The error's that show up in the log sometimes don't make a lot of sense. It takes a while to determine what the actual failure is.

The backups don't work well over small network pipes. We have many customers that we support that don't have a high bandwidth circuit so the backups could run for days for a large amount of data. And then after running for so long, the end up failing anyway.




**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Over the years we have upgraded our system a few times and need to keep our customers data while moving into new hardware, Asigra does this and does it well. We are currently upgrading hardware and looking at new major version soon and this overall due to the last few years of upgrades going so well this is not a "scary" process.

  ### 17. Asigra has saved our clients lots of money.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matt R. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 08, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra just works.  It's easy to use and it backs up all of our clients data.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Configuring retention rules can be a chore and confusing.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

Be prepared for a decent learning curve.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We backup entire servers for our clients.

  ### 18. Very responsive and Intuitive

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ramon B. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

the intuitiveness of the software, it lays out the information simple for your understand and function

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

currently i have not met on anything i dislike about this

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

you should give it a try, when it comes to intuitive and fluid UI they have and the support you get from tech support is really great

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

currently we are solving the issue of not having our customers data local on physcal hardware and having it in the Azure cloud which helps with availability, accessibility and scalability .

  ### 19. ACE certified administrator review : Best cloud backup solutions I have used

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Glen D. | Storage Backup engineer, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2014

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

I love that the solution is VERY salable and robust.  We are a MSP and there is very few products that offer the security needs we require and also the speed.  For DR tests, backing up and restoring data Asigra does it all and does it well.  Their tech support is great and knowledgeable.  When we have had emergency issues over the years I have always gotten prompt excellent support, whether it is account team or tech support.  They also have a features add forum where the developers put more time towards the requested items to make the product better.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Some of the reporting on storage trend growth or custom reports can be not user friendly.  The install process and setting up backups can be a bit overwhelming for a new administrator but with proper escalation of trained support this is easily overcome.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

This is one of the best solutions on the market, I have supported comvault and symantec over last decade at a architect level and this is far more salable and better to support.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Over the years we have upgraded our system a few times and need to keep our customers data while moving into new hardware, Asigra does this and does it well.  We are currently upgrading hardware and looking at new major version soon and this overall due to the last few years of upgrades going so well this is not a "scary" process.

  ### 20. Easy to setup and easy to manage.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Brian P. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 10, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

I enjoy the fact that this is an agent-less backup system.  As an MSP we setup multiple customers and not having to install an agent on every server is great time saver.  Also we are now learning about the new AMC.  I think its a great tool.  integrating an antivirus to help protect against ransomware is amazing.  I look forward to implementing this server in our environment soon.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

The retention settings can be a little confusing.  Another draw back with Asigra is that support is usually a few versions behind Red Hat Linux.  We had an issue with a customer who was liked to update Red Hat within a month of the update coming out.  We had to have them drop the service pack of Red Hat just to install Asigra.  Researching errors can be a little cumbersome on the support site.  Unlike other products where a quick google search will solve most of your issues.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

My recommendation would be to  use RedHat Linux servers for your DS-System and BLM.  Its a little bit harder to configure.  However we noticed we have had less issues with Linux over the windows servers.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One of the biggest benefits to our company is being able to backup multiple clients with out having agents installed on every server.    This saves time and resources during new customer setups.  Also the fact that Asigra can encrypt data and has strong encryption help cover any compliance and audit issues.

  ### 21. Asigra Top Backup Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Networking | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 09, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

During ACA and ACS Asigra certification, I realised the power of this backup solution. DS-User friendly environment, give access to everything. From the way you want your environment to look, to security, configuration like create different users, backup sets, retention rules, schedules, observing event logs, errors and warnings, controlling backup bandwidth and a lot more. And this is just the DS-User. There are different tools like DS-Operator for service providers Administrators, DS-NOC web interface and many more. Backup and restore of file systems, folders on different OS or VMs become an ease case for any user. The tool give accurate information for backups and restores and guides the user to reach successful results. And on the top of that, our backup and our customer's backup are protected from Attack-loop. In any case there is a free access on a huge knowledge base where Asigra support helped users with their difficulties or problems and all cases are published for everybody. I cannot think a better agentless cloud backup solution where all function properly and in case of an issue, Asigra support team is present.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra Cloud Backup is a simple but complex solution. It is not that I dislike it but if someone wants to reach a certain level a certain time must be spend.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

Easy solid agentless cloud backup solution

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Customer's backup. Accurate - solid backup/restore results.

  ### 22. Rock Solid Enterprise Data Backup Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sam W. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 20, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

The fact that we do not get nervous when a customer asks us to restore data for them. We have never had to tell a customer that we would not be able to get their data back to them. 

We protect a large group of Independent Drug Stores in the Southeast and Asigra  a solid solution, with FIPS 140-2 Certification, when healthcare related data is involved. Asigra allows you to address the strictest compliance requirements.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

I'd have to say the GUI interface, however with the Management Console, some customer/user facing controls are much better.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

Try Asigra before making any other decision.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are excited about the new Attack-Loop Ransomware solution Asigra provides and the addition of MFA functionality to prevent data deletion. 

We are protecting several different solutions that run on different OS platforms while only the Asigra solution. This allows us to be more efficient as a company, by focusing on one product for data protection.

  ### 23. Asigra Cloud Backup Solution

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oliver K. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 11, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra is still one of the true do it all backup solutions that is on the market with the ability to protect so many different types of data. There are very few solutions that I have used in the past or use to this day that have the ability to protect such a wide range of platforms with a single solution. A lot of other solutions are focused solely around protecting at image levels giving you the entire VM back as quickly as possible which I agree is essential for fast DR however there is very little integration for PostgreSQL, MySQL, DB2 and so on in these solutions with the only way to get the data back performing an Instant VM. While that works Asigra allows you to control exactly what you want to take and how often you want to keep it with powerful retention rules making data storage way more efficient, why keep an image of an entire machine for 7 years when what you actually need is the database and only the latest server image. Asigra is second to none in this scenario. 

Asigra have always been very security focused and with the FIPS 140-2 accreditation gives peace of mind to end users and service providers knowing that their data is secure which in the modern world of compliance is something that is essential and something that Asigra has had baked in for many years.

The entire solution is very wan and storage optimised ensuring that data is transferred offsite as quickly and efficiently as possible to ensure you can follow the 321 rule and get your data air gapped to protect against ransomware.

One of the biggest benefits for Asigra is its agentless nature allowing us to protect environments without having to worry about deploying lots of different agents. This is especially beneficial for protecting Cloud resources such as AWS, Azure and Google hosted environments as you can protect various different resources easily.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

One of Asigra's strongest features is always its biggest weakness, the wan and storage optimisation that ensures data is sent offsite as quickly as possible and stored as efficiently as possible can limit the speeds at which it restores. Asigra at present cannot compete with some of the other backup solutions with Instant VM and recovery so DR is slower than other solutions when you want to recover an entire machine however when you want data from years ago it is leaps and bounds ahead.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

Choose this solution if you want complete control over your data retention and the ability to store years of data efficiently. Please take note to ensure you use a valued Asigra partner to set this up as like a house built on poor foundations the solution will perform poorly.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are protecting numerous environments from small/medium businesses to enterprises ensuring that all their data protection needs are met and satisfied. Whether this is private, public or hybrid cloud setups including protecting data that is held within AWS, Google or Azure. 

Asigra is significantly better than many other solutions that are out there for data retention and the overall efficiency of storing that data. Equally with Asigra I trust that if the data has been backed up successfully and cleanly that it will restore with no problems at all.

  ### 24. Asigra as a backup Solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jeremy W. | Operations Director, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 11, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Having used Asigra for over 15 years I know that if it's been set up correctly by an experienced trained engineer then it will restore what you have backed up and restore is the key to any backup solution. Asigra will restore your valuable company data if the worst happens.
Asigra has vast support for many different types of Operating Systems and Applications. Agent-less design means there is less management required of the solution and as its a secure FIPS 140-2 certified solution it ensures the data it backed up remains secure and can be restored.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

There will be lots of reviews regarding dated GUI's which Asigra are addressing but if you know the solution and the GUI's they are easy to use and configure.
As Asigra is secure and has a great compression algorithm it means data cannot always be restored as quickly as some other solutions but it will restore the data.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

If you require a secure solution that supports lots of different Operating Systems and Applications and will keep data cost effectively for a long time then Asigra could be the solution for you.
Ensure the product is set up correctly and you will always be able to guarantee data recovery.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Country wide solution used to protect data from multiple differing industries. Asigra's Compression and Incremental Forever design means data can be kept cost effectively for a long time ensuring companies meet their Data Governance requirements.

Its really helpful to have one product that can backup everything as opposed to hoping between different services. It is easy to create new backup sets using Asigra. Monitoring backups and investigating errors is simple because they give you the tools to do so. The install process is simple and the scheduling feature is powerful.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

The UI for the DS-Client is a bit outdated for 2020 but still works well and is functional. Support if you do not have the ACE qualification is expensive.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Asigra allows us to backup customer environments in a centralised way.  It is simple to pop a DS-Client onto a server and start backing up right away.

  ### 26. Asigra is a solid, mature product compared to other online backup products on the market.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nash C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 01, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra has been doing cloud backup for over 30 years.  The product is mature and dependable.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra does not have a large public knowledgebase.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

I would ignore dated information regarding criticism of Asigra's pricing model.  Pricing is competitive, and the product is superior.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Asigra makes it easy for a MSP to provide hosted online cloud backup for their clients.  Asigra allows MSPs that are capable of managing the back end to earn additional margin from their backup service.

  ### 27. Rock Solid and Secure

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chuck C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 18, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

First of all, having an agent-less backup client that can reach across the network and backup a variety different files, databases and even Virtual machines can be a real benefit.  And when it comes to security, few tools offer the extra encryption that Asigra's DS-System (vault) provides.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

The GUI has been a bit dated, but the latest version is addressing this.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

This is an enterprise class, file based backup solution.  They've been doing this longer than anybody I know.  It was originally called "televaulting" before the term "cloud" ever existed.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

And what we like best, is the secure, agentless database backups for SQL, Oracle, Exchange and other critical data sets.  Not only is it reliable and secure, but the database de-dupe is great for backup storage efficiency.

  ### 28. Secure reliable agentless backup

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rob C. | Owner, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 13, 2020

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Peace of mind knowing I have used this backup solution to recover from a disaster without any problems. The fact that I do not need an agent on any of my servers to get backups is also a bonus. The Ransomeware protection is amazing as well. What a great extra line of defence that is.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

I think the client needs more work... Especially the web based o365 backup client.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Been able to restore files (different versions included) as well as VMWare servers very easily.

Checking my files for RansomeWare on backup is a great bonus

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra works well across multiple platforms.  Centralized and web-based management makes it easy to manage backups from anywhere. Restore process works well. Great customer service and response.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

I would be nice if reporting was more configurable. Training at first was bit rough, but it's better now.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We could not back up multiple clouds with another product. Being able to backup multiple clouds has been our success. Replication provides off site backups and supports disaster recovery. Easy of use and ability to give client access is important.

  ### 31. Supports a wide range of environments

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mohamed Lotfi B. | Administrateur Système, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

Extremely robust, with near guaranteed recovery of your data. You can set and forget this product.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Support can be a challenge, it takes alot of back and forth via a not very user friendly support system to get your problem attended to. Once you have someone from support online it is fairly quick to solve but the process of getting there is painful.

Less time spent worrying about backup operations.

Support sometimes is difficult but that is rare.

Multiply OS in the networks. Need a ,local solution as well as a cloud solution. can do virtual and physical both.

  ### 35. A very powerful backup solution that's nice to use

The Asigra software gives you lots of control over your backups, with lots of backup types and settings. It also gives you detailed insights if something has gone wrong.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

Asigra has a steep learning curve for beginners. Also, the interface does not look modern as of version 14.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Asigra to power all of our cloud backup, and find it a great product to support and manage.

  ### 36. Asigra is a great backup solution

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

Asigra is a time tested proven solution that has saved our systems numerous times. The system is easy to use and effective even over slow or higher latency connections.

The user interface could be more intuitive and a lot faster when loading and setting up operations. They are working to improve the experience in newer versions of the UI.

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Government Administration | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 04, 2018

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

To be honest, there were some features that we liked.  However, the performance of the product and high overhead of a single threaded solution were intolerable.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

The false statements regarding feature set items that have not worked for many generations/releases of the product.  A simple fabrication of truth.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

DO NOT consider it.  Take a look at Veeam Cloud Connect for Service Providers. Superior in every possible way.  Approximately 1/8th the cost.  Far superior support and the product does what the documentation states.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Use of the Asigra solution resulted in failure of our business.  We were a user of this platform for 12 years beginning in 2006.

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

the business strategic plan. The amount of data that can be stored

  ### 44. Not Very good

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Oliver O. | I.T Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2017

  ### 45. Comprehensive protection for endpoints, virtual and physical servers, and cloud apps

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David F. | Director of Operations, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 15, 2016

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

Provides a single data protection interface for physical servers, virtual machines, endpoint devices, and cloud applications. Customers have granular control over all aspects of backup sets, including retention, filtering, and scheduling.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

The interface is outdated, which throws off first time users. Once they get past the initial look, however, the functionality is there. Once the GUI refresh is completed the initial introduction to the software will be easier. Reporting is also difficult, as there's not a lot of built in reporting capability. You do have access to lots of data that can be fed into reporting tools, however. The GUI refresh and additional reporting would earn it that last star.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Asigra fills a critical gap in business continuity and disaster recovery planning, preventing costly downtime through robust backup configuration options including onsite appliances for rapid restore and virtual disaster recovery for VMs.

  ### 46. Asigra

**Reviewed by:** Grey P. | analista de siniestros, Insurance, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

  ### 49. Product is clunky and bloated, support is almost non existant.

**Rating:** 1.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Richard D. | Sr. Systems Engineer, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 26, 2015

**What do you like best about SaaSAssure?**

They allow MSP to backup customer data and the price is cheaper than some competitors.

**What do you dislike about SaaSAssure?**

We offer this as a MSP solution, however we have to have 6 servers in house and one has to be physical the license server. Then we also have to have a server at each customer address and then the agent on each system being backed up. The systems at our site are mostly all Linux, and the interfaces are not user friendly. Finally, their support is not good at all. If you do not pay an extra 1400 dollars for one time remote access incident support or 400 for a phone call then you are stuck with logging into the web portal and jumping through 100 hoops to create a case only to have to wait up to 24 hours to get a vague email response. Also I cant even find their knowledge base, and downloads are also not available from their site. This is the worst support experience I have had in 22 years in the business. 

**Recommendations to others considering SaaSAssure:**

I personally would not recommend this solution and we are looking for alternatives. however this solution is a lot less expensive than the larger solutions by companies like HP but you get what you pay for.

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are a MSP we use this product to backup customers data.

i felt the software required too much resources and a dedicated server

**What problems is SaaSAssure solving and how is that benefiting you?**

asigra allows us to backup our entire enterprise wihtout too much hassle
