- Easy management
- Consolidated SaaS dashboard for management of backup

- Pay-per-use cost
- Billing is based on consumption and is integrated and available through the GCP marketplace
Our Take
No matter what public cloud you choose, understand that moving to cloud does not eliminate the responsibility for backup and disaster recovery. Poorly negotiated SaaS contracts can result in unexpected increase to YoY costs, difficult implementations, and high switching costs. Know the benefits and draw backs of SaaS before falling for its easy-to-use value proposition.
