The web interface is easy to use. Just simply install on the devices and you are ready to go. You own your own data. There are no storage limits which is an asset. > > **Cons**: There are a few limits on the scheduling features but we have managed to work around them. > > SolarWinds saved the day when disaster struck one of our clients, we were able to restore everything quickly and easily as if nothing had happened. Common backup and rescue media is easy to create. Customer support was easy to deal with. We have experienced no issues using SolarWinds Backup and recommend it to all of our clients. ----- ### "Excellent product, excellent ecosystem, excellent conversion options" — 5.0/5 > **Shaun** | *6 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Its reliable and feature packed. Being able to have a migration option out of Vmware hypervisor /esxi/vsphere is a must have > > **Cons**: While it is feature rich it is rather granular and complex, which may be a hindrance for some small or new IT teams. > > Excellent, set and forget, reliable, I can focus on other things knowing Cove has my data and customer data locked up and backed up. ----- ### "Coast Techs Consulting review of Cove" — 3.0/5 > **Eliot** | *11 May 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: It does what its supposed to at a fair cost. Ive also dealt with some kind and helpful support people. > > **Cons**: That there isnt a centralized, easy to read page that shows the total billable count, broken down by each client. And that you cannot delete specific dates from your backup, you would need to delete the entire backup history if you wanted to remove a single file that shouldnt have been backed up. > > Seems like its a better budget option. The price is the selling point, but the interface could be better. Support seems good so far. ----- ### "A go-to backup solution for managed environments" — 5.0/5 > **Brian** | *30 April 2026* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Cove Data Protection has become a core part of our backup strategy. The setup is fast, deployment across multiple endpoints is streamlined, and the centralized management console makes it easy to monitor backup health at a glance. The lack of local backup infrastructure is a major plus — no appliance to size, replace, or troubleshoot. Restores have been consistently reliable, and recovery testing gives us peace of mind. Update and version control is handled well on the backend, so we're not chasing patches or worrying about agent compatibility. The value for money is excellent, especially compared to traditional image-based backup products. > > **Cons**: The only consistent issue we've run into is the service occasionally stalling. When this happens, a service restart or quick reboot resolves it immediately and backups resume normally. It would be nice to see this addressed long-term, but it's a minor operational issue rather than a dealbreaker. > > Cove has proven to be a dependable, cost-effective backup platform. It delivers on the fundamentals — reliable backups, fast restores, simple management — without the overhead of legacy solutions. The occasional service stall is easily managed, and the overall value makes it an easy product to recommend. ----- ### "Cove Data Protection - the Right Choice" — 5.0/5 > **George** | *12 May 2026* | Computer & Network Security | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Overall Cove Data Protection is a great tool for an MSP. With a quick learning curve and simple deployment it's a good value. I like the integration with N-Sight and the ease of remote management. The licensing options make it a no-brainer to recommend to my clients. > > **Cons**: Maybe I'm a little bias, but I really can't find any "cons". I have used other products and they were all "overkill" and overly complicated. > > My overall experience with Cove Data Protection has been positive. Finding a product that's easy to deploy, at a fair price with flexible licensing options makes it a great choice for MSPs. We are a "small" MSP and it fits our needs perfectly, but with Cove being feature rich, I'm sure it will serve much larger MSPs as well. ----- Page: 1 / 16\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/171880/solarwinds-backup?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/171880/solarwinds-backup) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | fr | | ----- ## Structured Data
