Avast Cloud Backup vs. Microsoft System Center

Excellent tool to create computer backup routines through automation by date, time and actions. Backups are not lost and updates are added to the file total. The centralized platform allows managing and also monitoring all computers and analyzing incidents and attempted attacks. This reduces our team's time and makes it easier to handle security incidents more efficiently. We really like the restore feature that can recover a computer in case of any kind of software failure or attack. It's fast and effective. The backup is all in the cloud and is stored in the AVG cloud with AES 256bit encryption and security. Anyway, I can say that it is a cost-effective tool that fulfills the promise but loses in the technical support that needs to be improved.

For companies with more than 10 Windows devices and needing to standardize the OS, AV, access, share resources, and install software. SCCM is the way to go. This software is unnecessary if the business is all remote users and not in an office-type setting. There are cloud offerings or none to accomplish what a business needs.

It is not user-friendly for the most part. With IT infrastructure, sometimes it cannot handle excess requests. Every few months, you will need an upgrade in terms of server resources to keep up with incoming alerts and requests. This does not happen all of the time, but it does happen when there are too many requests.

If I had to dislike something about the system it would be how much it changes once you upgrade. This could be more of a problem of mine since I get used to one way and don't like it when it changes so much. I am enjoying the newest update, but it is a mess when you are actually going through the upgrades.

We previously used a mix of FOG and Clonezilla to image machines. The biggest issues with these products is that changing one piece of the image required you to rebuild the entire image itself. These pieces of software also did not allow you to manage applications and Windows Updates, causing IT to have to constantly touch machines after they were imaged and update or manage them with a much more hands on approach.
