Axcient x360Cloud Review
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Axcient x360Cloud as our primary backup for Microsoft emails as well as Sharepoint.
The problem it addresses is that if an email is compromised and an attacker deletes everything we have a point of return as well as if some other bad actor such as a terminated employee.

x360 cloud is a solid solution but needs one big feature to stand out
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We did a extensive POC and ultimately decided to not completely migrate over to Axcient x360Cloud due to one major issue we had which was the lack of daily backup verification meaning that the back up that was taken is not verified working daily as it is with some other vendors however most of the other toolset impressed us quite a bit and we deployed on a few different solutions.
Pros
- Service Options
- Bring your own hardware
- pricing was some of the most competitive
Cons
- Nightly backup boot verification
Most Important Features

Return on Investment

Cloud backups done right
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We manage the IT for 50 companies who use Office 365 with Axcient x360Cloud. Most companies are unaware that Microsoft's retention policies aren't a backup and this is where Axcient fits in. We've had many occasions where we've needed to restore snapshots to recover emails from users who have left the company, etc. x360 Cloud gives us as administrators and clients the peace of mind that all their 365 cloud data is being backed up and easily recoverable if and when required.
Pros
- Good visibility over backup status and protected users and data
- Audit log activity information
- Support requests
- Smart Search
- Reports
Cons
- Smart Search - Filter by collection doesn't always show all the folders
Return on Investment
- Compared to the previous vendor, Axcient is saving us $1,000 per month and providing better value
