## Genie Backup Manager Reviews
  ### 1. Easy to use decent backup manager

**Rating:** 2.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Andreas R. | IT Supporter, Marketing and Advertising, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 15, 2016

**What do you like best about Genie Backup Manager?**

Genie Backup Manager is an easy to use backup manager. It has an easy to use interface, and it's easy and fast to configure file level backups and set up schedules. There's a lot of configuration options and you can also set it to backup to Amazon cloud.

**What do you dislike about Genie Backup Manager?**

While the interface is pretty fresh, it feels like the functionality is somewhat outdated and Genie9 is focusing more on it's other suites of consumer backup solutions. 
While local backups works great, backing large amount of files to Amazon works really sluggishly.
Genie backup manager also lacks a lot of enterprise features and is really mostly suited for the entrepreneur or small business user, who requires a cheap solution that works great locally.

**Recommendations to others considering Genie Backup Manager:**

Make sure this fits your use case. There are many different solutions for different needs out there. This product is best if price is a major concern, and backing up locally on a schedule is what you need. There's still a place for local backup software, but use the trial and evaluate whether this suits your need.

**What problems is Genie Backup Manager solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's a cheap backup solution that we have used for employees working from home with large amount of assets, allowing them to configure their backup themselves. It's really mostly about price and ease of use, as there are far superior backup solutions out there.
