FAQ

What is the difference between Free Backup, Pro, Managed Backup?

MSP360 Free Backup software is a perfect solution for small-scale data protection of personal desktops with low data volumes. MSP360 Backup Pro provides data protection for managing up to 5 devices and offers more backup options, including support for Windows servers, SQL Servers and virtual machines. However, it has a key limitation that sets it apart from MSP360 Managed Backup: there is no centralized management through a web console: users can only manage backups using a local agent.

How is MSP360 Backup Pro licensed and priced?

After downloading the solution, you get a 15-day free trial. Once it ends, you must choose an annual subscription. Each license is for one computer, except the VM edition, which is per host. Pricing varies by edition; for instance, MSP360 Backup Pro starts at $19.99 for Linux and macOS, and $24.99/year for Windows. Visit the pricing calculator for more details.

Can I use MSP360 Backup Pro in a business environment?

Yes, the Pro edition supports domain-joined machines or business environments.

Is technical support included?

With MSP360 Backup Pro, you can choose between Standard Support and Premium Support options:
  • Standard support is provided with no extra costs, but the support is provided within longer periods of time.
