A great product to protect your AWS resources
What do you like best about the product?
The product, in general, makes it easy to backup and restore (especially important) your AWS infrastructure. The new GUI fixes a lot of issues, although these were minor and more annoyances than issues. I have used this product at two different companies and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not really much I dislike about CPM, well, maybe the new name. Old habits can be hard to shake. I've been using the product for a while so I'm used to it, which may make it a bit more difficult to be objective to issues. I know my way around the product. The configuration for the Copy to S3 can be a little difficult but given the feature is something not available within AWS I tend to overlook that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially, AWS did not have a decent native backup solution. AWS Backup has made some great improvements but it is still nowhere near as easy to implement and manage as N2WS Backup & Recovery. The ease and speed of recovery make regular restore testing simple.
Perfect fit
What do you like best about the product?
It's so simple to use, and have all of your backup information on a single dashboard.
It also gives me peace of mind while Installed in my own AWS environment.
Allow to save big money on unused resources that were just sitting there.

Great product and great Support
What do you like best about the product?
It very easy to get the CPM server setup and doing basic backups to start protecting your AWS instances. Also like the new 3.0 user interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user guide is not always clear on how to implement a given solution leaving me to contact support for clarification
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to have a cross account for direct S3 DR vault backups is huge. Makes the process of securing and retrieving a DR backup so much easier that the previous method we had engineered using a different vendors product
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its easy to try plus support is great
N2WS is a great solution for backing up your AWS environment
What do you like best about the product?
It is the only AWS backup solution that intelligently uses AWS functionality instead of trying to graft cloud functionality onto a traditional backup software.
The new interface is clean and easy to use
The new interface is clean and easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
There have been a few problems with 3.0 that required multiple patches and upgrades but now they have it ironed out and working.
Support is only available via e-mail which makes it hard to troubleshoot the issue. The few times we have been able to get a Zoom meeting or a phone call have been much more effective.

Super Easy Backup Solution
N2WS is the simplest and most easy to use Backup Solution for AWS. Once configured it does a pretty good job. Even upgrades are super easy.
Best solution for Backups
What do you like best about the product?
It has a relatively Simple interface. The recovery time feature is good. Flexible backup policies and scheduling which is very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
Ease of backup policy abstraction must be improved. Users must have access similar to IAM roles.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of scheduling backups and restoring then when needed with small number of steps .
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go for it. It's easy to use and makes your backups an easy one click job at most if not automated.
The best cloud backup management system I've used yet
The great thing about this system is that it utilizes and integrates with so many of AWS's services. The ability to backup and manage resources outside of the account where CPM is deployed is extremely valuable to MSPs and tech companies who are spread out into multiple AWS accounts. Lastly, I love the fact that the development team is so active with updates and adding new functionality, it amazes me how often (and how many) new features appear within the interface on a regular basis.
I gave the product 5-stars because of it's reliability and the fact that they haven't let me down yet. I will say that anyone getting into this product should know that the support is only e-mail based, it's not like calling traditional Veeam support and getting an engineer on the phone. That being said, in extenuating circumstances, they have provided phone support but this is somewhat unusual, given their support model.
I would choose this product again and again.
Fantastic Service
Easy to use and exactly what I need. Also recently took advantage of the new S3 snapshot storage and it works great! Thank you!
