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

SqlBak is straight forward ,easy to use, and does exactly what we expect it to do. Above all of that the price is so convenient

Nothing that i can recall. Maybe the error logs when a database failure happens can be displayed in a shorter way instead of showing very long exception details, and then i can see the detailed error if needed.
Still, i'm fine with it

SqlBak is easy to use, exceeds your expectations. It occasionally gets new updates that are helpful too.
The price/quality is perfect! I do recommend it and never hesitated to do so .

**Reviewed Date:** March 25, 2021

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

The tool is very simple to install n configure with options for secondary storage , it's a blessing for system administration team. What else could you ask for. 

I wish they can expand the list include more databases and don't mark Entire backup failed if one location fails 5o store.

Marking entire backup exercise as Failed if any additional storage fails. For me if backup is completed on one location it's successful and a warning can be shown for any location failure.

Centralized Backup Monitoring and intimation has taken away entire manual effort n it's really a peace of mind. We review weekly report n act if something needs action.
