Hey everyone! I'm transitioning from using Veeam and Cohesity for on-premise backups, and I'm in need of a cloud backup (Backup as a Service) solution for a smaller client. They only have a single on-prem server that runs a couple of virtual machines. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and have a fantastic weekend!

Have you thought about Synology C2? Itโ€™s cost-effective and compatible with a wide range of systems for backup.

For a single host with a few VMs, Iโ€™d keep things uncomplicated. Acronis Cyber Protect would work well. It supports agentless VM backups, meaning youโ€™ll just need one agent installed. Plus, it has cloud storage for backup archives, which is convenient.

Why not use the Veeam Community Edition? You could run it on a desktop, keep a local copy, and then send another copy offsite. I found Wasabi to be a good option for offsite backups!

We had great success with a Datto setup in our small satellite office. It was easy to manage and set up, plus it worked like a charm!
