Enterprise backup trial to Amazon Glacier
I have been using the enterprise backup trial version to backup a file share to Amazon Glacier and am testing it as a replacement for Symantec Backup Exec (BE).
Cloudberry Lab (CBL) support has been very helpful answering all my questions about the backup methods and any issues I've had. Support is one of the most important factors in selecting any enterprise service, and CBL has excelled here.
In regard to the product, I find that it is more than capable of doing what I have BE doing. WIth a virtualized, redundant storage network, our traditional backups have become disaster recovery solutions only. Therefore, I almost never access the backups and find that having to purchase enough storage capacity to anticipate future growth to be unnecessary with the availability of expandable cloud storage. Thus, I find that CBL's enterprise backup coupled with Amazon Glacier to be the best solution for our environment. Also, CBL's ability to compress and encrypt the data before it is stored in the cloud provides me with enough confidence that our data is securely stored.
A note about BE. BE requires me to create a virtual machine with additional storage to act as a virtual tape library and feel this is an unnecessary additional overhead for such a service.

Best backup solution I have seen in years
Finally all of my clients have regular offsite backups that complete after hours and I get a nice clean report. This software has all the features I was looking for and the support team is incredible.
Cloudberry is Impressive
Cloudberry Server is an extremely solid backup tool for a wide range of backup applications. We have found that Cloudberry in many areas can efficiently backup server data to the cloud without the large cost and complexity overhead (and regular failures) of more traditional corporate backup software packages.
Backup software
After reviewing several products to backup a small business server (SBS 2008), I went with this product. It has lots of options and works with multiple cloud platforms. It is simple and easy to use. They answered all my questions during the trial period and even talked about future possible features. Great folks to work with.
CloudBerry saved our data twice now
After losing 2 data vault units to hard drive failures, we were able to recover all our files thanks to CloudBerry. When we migrated to a full server, this was the first program I installed.
CloudBerry is easy to setup and very intuitive. Customer support is fantastic.
Cloudberry is Excellent! - Great Product & Customer Service!!
I had some questions regarding Archiving to Glacier using Cloudberry. I talked with Service Representative Sergey over a conference call using GoToMeeting. He walked me through and explained what my issue was with great detail.
The product is fantastic and the support from Sergey was outstanding.
Thank you to all at Cloudberry. You guys are awesome..

2 TB Backups one Locally to one to Amazon S3
We used HP Data Protector for years, our tape drive would lock up the server several times a week. It was very expensive to use. The backups were proprietary so you had to use their software to restore a single file. The files weren't indexed so a single file was difficult to find if you didn't know exactly where it was originally stored.
Cloudberry backup is so simple to use and understand. We backup our 4 servers to a local backup server and another copy to Amazon S3. We have several million artwork files, we backup in real-time with version control. If you need to restore 1 file or a whole folder it can be done easily in a few minutes.
Amazon S3 has continually worked to reduce our storage costs. Their tech support has been very helpful the few times we have needed them.
Good, Simple to Use and Reliable
With this product I have traveled all the roads that the company offered me and wanted to support.
Downloaded the trial version, I tested it with the excellent support of CloudBerry people, and on the way, the benefits of the product convinced me to buy the first copy of CloudBerry Backup.
Have passed several months during which this copy has kept for safekeeping in the cloud the files of our business server, so far the task more heavy the software gave us was its periodically updates, provided by CloudBerry. The result of the backups, which are controlled periodically is excellent.
At some questions during installation, support response of company sector was quick and effective.
Two months ago I bought another copy to backup files of my personal computers and the result was equally effective.
I believe that for its quality and effectiveness is a product that deserves the five stars.
Highly recommended !!
Excellent product
Did some initial testing and this product does everything it promises. Its not hard to find software these days that lack proper testing and QA procedures, which results in buggy software. Cloudberry is fortunately not one of them.
Not only does it perform well without bugs, but their support is fantastic too, I had some questions around the product which I got very prompt responses to from a REAL PERSON! wow...
Great product, great company, good for me and my clients. I am using the bare metal for server backup, the functionality that is available is incredible and the UI is great.
Awesome Product
this software does exactly what we needed it to do and really like the simplistic user interface it makes it really easy to use. We used it a trial and was able to get it to work with our new Backup Software, I love that fact that it mounts as a network drive this allows us to more easily manage our S3 Cloud storage. Awesome Product guys/gals looking forward to more in the future.
