If I was to list one I would say the lack of continuous backup. You can work around this by scheduling multiple jobs a day but isn't as ideal as solutions we've used in the past. > > I've been really happy with Comet since the minute we started using them. I'm very happy with the switch\! The Web UI is fast and responsive. You have lots of flexibility in choosing either to store backups on Comet Server or on an S3 provider like Azure (or any other that you might want to use). ----- ### "i work with comet for about 1 year overall i like it" — 3.0/5 > **chiko** | *April 24, 2023* | Computer Hardware | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: simple use . can backup cloud and local > > **Cons**: i dont feel its so safe and stil use other software as well every server i backup with comet to cloud and other for local ----- ### "Ideal for startup's with capital constraints" — 5.0/5 > **Francis** | *October 13, 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The fact that you can spin up a quality backup service very quickly and with very little capital makes comet an attractive proposition. > > **Cons**: The support is a bit clunky due to it's location and the time differences. > > The implementation was very simply and the api works well with the 3rd party webapp we use. ----- ### "Great self-hosted multiplatform backup solution" — 5.0/5 > **Fernand** | *August 11, 2021* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Comet has a light footprint, native applications (no Java client) and has a plethora of supported backup sources including Windows, Mac, Linux, databases, windows bare metal and more. It works reliably and offers flexible implementation options. The server software includes SSL certificate generation, data sync to other servers and more. > > **Cons**: Server setup and implementation took a bit of work but once it is set up it works well. The management interface takes a bit to get used to. It would be nice if we could have more fine-grained control of server-to-server data sync.. e.g. syncing overnight. > > We use Comet to backup key data and systems for our clients as well as for ourselves. ----- Page: 1 / 4\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2048563/comet-backup?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/2048563/comet-backup) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
