Ninja Data Protection vs. Cloud Storage Solutions
Protect data stored on end-user devices and servers wherever they are with a robust solution built to defend against ransomware, unlike your average cloud storage solutions.
Why Choose a Backup Solution Over a Cloud Storage Solution?
File and System Recovery
Cloud Storage
The main purpose of cloud storage solutions is to store files, photos, and videos in one centralized location in the cloud. If a recovery is needed, this data will have to be accessed one by one and downloaded onto a new device. If files aren’t updated within the cloud, this could lead to older versions that may no longer be applicable.Backup
A thorough backup will usually include everything from the device software to its operating system to any documents, images, videos, etc. Additionally, in the event of a catastrophic loss of data or ransomware attack, you can recover a clean, fully backed-up version of your OS and files from a point before the disaster.Why Backup is More Effective
- Includes everything on a device’s source drive
- Allows for a complete restore of a device’s environment for a rapid set up on an existing or new device
- Provides a version of a device’s environment prior to any disaster or ransomware attack
Data Automation
Cloud Storage
Files moved to the cloud will be safe if a device crashes, however, only the files who have been moved into cloud storage will be unharmed. Depending on the solution, users will have to manually save or upload files, photos, or videos to their cloud storage, which can cause issues on data points that have several versions.Backup
Backup takes this manual step out of the process to ensure the integrity and safety of your data. Once you configure which files are backed up and how often backups run, no further manual steps are needed. Files will be automatically backed up and continuously updated.Why Backup is More Effective
- Automated file backups and continuous updates remove manual user elements from the equation
- Users can set custom schedules and decide which specific data points are to be backed up
- Experience flexibility with automated backups of full device environments including OS and device software
