N2WS review
I have used the N2WS CPM backup product for 8 years. It is very reliable and easy to use. It has all the features I need. Additionally, N2WS support is very responsive. I would highly recommend this product to anyone who needs a great cloud backup system.

Great product!

Great product!
What do you dislike about the product?
Some updates require to launch a new instance to keep the CPM updated. If you are obsessed with security, you need to know that you´ll need a third party IDP compatible with SAML 2.0 to enable double authentication to your CPM users. Unfortunately, you can't protect your root account with this because of a limitation on the CPM side. Rotate root passwords are the only way to prevent unauthorized access. N2WS is a great team that is keeping the solution updated with new features very often to be one of the best AWS backup and recovery software, so I'm completely sure that they will improve or implement a solution to improve it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
N2WS CPM allows us to manage a large amount of AWS accounts efficiently from one console without losing visibility of their protected resources. It was a must.
We saved time and resources deploying the CPM. We have a clear image of how backup and recovery are implemented in our organization. Our customers are using the CPM as a SaaS, and we got good feedback from them, especially, after the last CPM release (3.1)

N2WS Review
What do you like best about the product?
How quick you can backup and recover the data in AWS and compatibility with AWS S3 an Glacier
What do you dislike about the product?
individual item level recovery is not available for application items such as Microsoft Active Directory, SharePoint, SQL Servers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
N2WS directly integrates with AWS and doesn't require agents to take backup. Also, you can directly backup to S3 and Glacier which is not available with other systems.
N2WS Backup - Highly Recommended
What do you like best about the product?
Works well, good interface, good service
What do you dislike about the product?
Daily summary should show most recent 1st
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
N2WS makes backups much easier than using the AWS snapshots manually - much more automated with reports and a daily summary of jobs. Good granular scheduling. VPC backups are great. Can send snapshots to another account or region.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This should be one of your top choices for cloud backups.
Excellent AWS backup solution
What do you like best about the product?
The easy of use and the speed performing backups.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe is a little expensive, but it is a lifeguard for our systems.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Backup speed, recovery scenarios
Extremely satisfied with N2WS
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to send backup directly to S3 to save money, with the new version 3.1, we don't even need to store snapshot, they are sent directly to S3.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes we need to recreate the N2WS instance to upgrade the product, the operation is fast but as we are on a production environment, it's difficult to have time to upgrade the product between 2 backup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The possibility to recover any files directly from a snapshot without the need to recreate a volume. Then the capability too send backup to S3 with licecycle management is great, we send backup to S3 Standard, then S3 IA, and S3 Glacier.
Swiss Army Knife of AWS backups
What do you like best about the product?
N2WS uses the excellent AWS snapshot technology as a foundation, but adds a lot of features that are not present in the native AWS Backup service.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be seen as an advantage at the same time, in a sense that you control the software and where it runs, but it would be helpful if this were a SaaS service.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an MSP, we like the multi-tenancy. But it also adds support for cross account and cross region backups, application consistent backups, dry run restore tests and much more.
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.
