Overall Review Sentiment for Comet Backup

Comet allows me to connect to my Backblaze B2 storage and saves a ton of money. The license cost is minimal, and paired with B2 I save thousands of dollars a year. I have restored everything from brick-level to BMR of a host or restoring Hyper-V machines. Easy setup and configuration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to complain about with Comet. It handles everything I need to perform offsite backups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Auto-updates. We've only had one or two instances where we have had to install updates manually. Overall, it only takes minutes to install new versions and update all clients. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing stands out, we've had no major issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Ultimately it just works, it is much faster than previous products we have used, restores are a lot quicker, i like the fact the restore speed is consistent and takes around the same amount of time to backup a recent backup as it would if we tried to restore the first backup taken, no more waiting for incremental's to be merged.
Setting up backup sets is a simple process and only takes a matter of minutes to get up and running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There isn't much; as a newer product, it doesn't have all the plugins some of the competitors have, but we have seen new ones being added so im confident that any others that we are missing will be added in the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Comet backup is hands down the most hands-off backup system we've worked with. All we need to really do is remember to update it when a new version comes out. Every management aspect is simple to use. I highly recommend using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
from time to time the admin backend will kick you out. not the end of the world, as we don't really log into it that often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The support is outstanding. They listen and actually read questions and respond to every question posed in a complete and thorough manner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The support hours are opposite hours for the US. They do have after-hours support, but they are very limited in what they can do and usually only point you in the direction of an already documented issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The management interface, connectivity to Wasabi/S3 buckets, white-labeling, price, ease of setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
So far I haven't found anything I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The price is the best part to me, i like the easy pricing mechanism Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
instructions could be a bit clearer, and support seems to be based in New Zealand so support hours are different than our business hours Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They support a wide array of storage services or you can use your own server storage. You can even spread backups across multiple storage providers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The process of selecting files/folders to backup as well as backing up locally to network shares can be a little tedius. But once you figure it out it's not a big deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is one of the best backup programs that seems work every time. Seldomly do I get glitches or hangups where I have to either reboot a server or fix an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
-I wish it'd support VMWare
-Doesn't integrate with PSAs (ConnectWise, Syncro, AutoTask)
-No automated way to test backups. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Flexible to configure for various clients. Great value for the features available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not US-based, but in all fairness, they're still very responsive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
