![]() For five server licenses and 20GB, the price goes from $29.75 to $69.75 per month.įor 10 licenses and 100GB, the pricing jumps from $89.50 to $244.50 per month, and for 20 servers and 500GB, the cost rockets from $329.00 to $1,014 per month.ĮMC spokesperson Kevin Kempskie told eWEEK that the price changes for MozyPro server put the license model more in line with pricing for the MozyEnterprise server. However, beginning on March 1, customers face the following prices: For a single server license plus 10GB of capacity, the cost jumps from $8.95 per month to $24.45 per month. Grandfathered licenses will retain existing features, functionality and support, EMC said.Ĭlick here to read more about EMC’s purchase of online backup provider MozyPro. Any additional storage purchased and assigned to a grandfathered license also will retain MozyPro’s existing pricing plan. ![]() The e-mail from EMC’s sales department said, “The MozyPro desktop offering will maintain the same low monthly price of $3.95 per license and 50 cents per GB … The new MozyPro server offering will be available at a monthly price of $6.95 per license and $1.75 cents per GB.”Įxisting MozyPro licenses and storage on individual accounts purchased before March 1, 2008, will be “grandfathered” and pricing will remain the same, the e-mail said. 25 saying prices for its popular SMB server backup service would be going up substantially on March 1. So did my clients.EMC, owner of the MozyPro online backup service since fall of 2007, sent e-mail notices to its customers on Feb. I'll stick with Veeam (+ Cloud Connect), but I survived. I've done a handful of full-dr scenarios. That being said - the UI is decent, support is fantastic if you know what you need them to do, and the Device Web/tunneling features are decent as well. But wasted a handful of hours for inconsistent traffic behavior. The VPN between their DC and the site was botched somehow. Smaller client restored 1 of their VMs to the Datto cloud (low-end device supported only that). maybe p2v should be SOP imho?ĭid I mention we have to make new VMs, then assign the VMDKs to it? Downtime for naught, boot back up, VMware P2V'd the bastard. Called support, and it boiled down to the drive changing between MBR/GPT across the restore/cutover. Once scheduled 12+ hours of downtime to copy a VM off of the Datto back onto production, only for the exported VMDK's to not boot. Which is fine, I don't consider snaps a backup. IE, snaps being taken of a running 'rescue agent' will still trigger tons of no-backups alarms. Restoring from a backup is pretty annoying because you deal with a VMDK, not a VM.Ĭould have a better UX with how ZFS snapshots are managed. Viewing a console of a running VM often just leads to HTTP 500 > Call Datto support > they SSH in > good to go. ![]() This has never failed me and this never should. Spinning up a backup works good and quick. But fuck me, when push comes to shove, I've had bad experiences. Love Datto's support, pricing is above my pay grade (zing!) so I don't have to stress over that. In addition price is an issue, we need something that is ideally cheaper. Preferably we would like a digest of all our maintained clients we can easily peruse to verify backups were successful. Meaning we need a functional admin page (unlike what carbonite offers). We have numerous clients who need backup to cloud, preferably without local storage being greatly effected. We need to find a way out of this garbage service. We've had this set up for a week and backups still fail left and right, support seems to know their product is garbage, it's a fine mess.Īnyhow, venting aside. I spent two hours today just checking and dealing with the issues today. No, instead they are shoving a outrageously inferior product down our throats to keep the pricing. We thought they would simply update mozy to have a carbonite logo. The service is unintuitive, unreliable, messy, clumsy, and uses Java. Their fake mozy transition page was just the tip of the iceberg. We were told this would be a simple transition.
