"AWS Bakcup is Amazing Module"
What do you like best about AWS Backup?

The ease of configuring your EBS or Disk EC2, to create daily snapshots is super easy and intuitive, it allows you to configure different snapshots, by zone, parameterizing each EC2 or EBS, from an idle location.

I am really amazed at how this tool can back up 2TB of our instances in just minutes.

Without a doubt, it is a tool, which parameterizes each backup by day, week or month, and takes a complete photo of each of your EC2, EBS and S3. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Backup?

So far, so good, it works perfectly for me to back up my EC2 disks.

Maybe it is a bit expensive since, in order to have the tools enabled, you must be able to have EC2 plans, which has a cost according to the structure a bit high.

Although it is easy to use, for an advanced user, for a user with zero or little experience, it is a bit complicated to understand how to configure a backup plan, for a zone and with specific rules. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good product with some room for improvement"
What do you like best about AWS Backup?

Easy to use and great pricing structure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about AWS Backup?

The process to restore ec2 images is not as easy as we hoped. You cannot attach elastic ips and security keys without going thru the set up wizard typically used to launch an ec2.

Additionally, you set up backup windows which isn't as great as being able to schedule for a specific time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
