As organizations rely more on different SaaS applications for everyday work—ranging from communication and productivity tools to CRM and financial platforms—IT admins need strong data protection measures. Traditional backup solutions often don’t meet these needs, especially when data is spread across multiple applications. 
That’s where SysCloud comes in. It simplifies how you handle and protect SaaS data. Here’s why IT admins worldwide choose SysCloud over other backup vendors: 

1. Get more than your money's worth

When it comes to value for money, SysCloud stands out. Each license includes 75GB of storage, which is more than the usual 50GB that most competitors provide for the same cost. For a growing company that constantly adds new users and generates large amounts of data (like emails, files, and CRM records), having these extra gigabytes per license can lead to real cost savings over time. This offers you greater storage capacity at an unbeatable price point.

2. Truly unlimited retention

Most backup vendors have a limit on the number of versions that can be retained or perform snapshot pruning on a weekly, monthly, or yearly basis leaving IT admins frustrated when critical data can’t be recovered. SysCloud, on the other hand, gives you truly unlimited retention for all supported SaaS apps. That means every version of every file is safely stored—forever. 

IT admins no longer have to worry about running out of space or dealing with the limitations of competitors’ backup solutions. Whether you need to restore a contract from years ago or retrieve a file deleted just days ago, SysCloud ensures immediate access to all backed-up data. 

3. Backs up more SaaS applications than any other vendor

SysCloud provides backup support for a wide range of critical SaaS applications, including Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, HubSpot, Salesforce, QuickBooks Online, Google Classroom, Box, and Xero. And there’s more to come—SysCloud is planning to soon add support for other popular apps like Zendesk and Shopify with dozens more on the roadmap. 

This extensive support helps businesses to back up all their important SaaS data using a single solution that grows with their business needs. 

4. Single pane of glass for all your critical SaaS backups

Managing backups for multiple SaaS applications can quickly become a complex and time-consuming task. Most backup vendors split their interface by the SaaS application, increasing the complexity of managing your backups.  
With SysCloud’s single pane of glass approach, IT admins gain a unified interface to manage, monitor, and protect all their SaaS application backups in one place. Having unified reports and analytics also makes audits easier and helps teams quickly spot and fix any data protection gaps. 

5. More than just backup: Gain actionable insights

While many vendors stop at basic backup and restore features, SysCloud goes further. Its advanced insights help you detect ransomware threats, compliance issues, and storage trends before they become major problems. 

IT admins can use SysCloud dashboards and analytics to detect ransomware threats or fine-tune storage usage. SysCloud backup is not a “just in case” safety net but a proactive tool that guides your data strategy, security measures, and compliance efforts.

6. AI-powered backups with "Sky"

SysCloud's in-app AI-powered chatbot 'Sky' helps you manage your backups effortlessly, helping you simplify complex admin tasks like storage management, archive search, while giving you additional insights about your backups- all from a chat interface.  For instance, Sky 2.0 allows you to ask questions about data, like "How many accounts have a retention period of less than 3 years?" providing answers that aren’t directly available in the application and making backup management smarter.

7. Best-in-class user interface

A messy user interface can lead to mistakes, delays, and extra training costs. SysCloud’s user interface is intuitive, making even complex restores a simple two-step process. This user-friendly design is easy to navigate and needs little to no training. 
For example, SysCloud simplifies even complex restores into a quick two-step process, saving IT admins valuable time. In comparison, other vendors often rely on multi-step workflows with confusing widgets that slow down the restore process. 

8. eDiscovery across SaaS applications

Many organizations rely on eDiscovery tools that only let you search one application at a time or only current file versions. SysCloud changes the game by:

  • Letting you search across multiple SaaS platforms (available for Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, and Slack)  

  • You can search across all the previous versions of your data and not just the version currently available. 

By bringing together data from different apps and all their versions, SysCloud reduces the time and effort it takes to find the information you need—no matter when or where it was created.

9. Advanced ransomware detection & recovery

Other vendors often only offer the capability to trigger an on-demand backup after a ransomware attack is launched and provide no capability to avoid the attack. SysCloud takes a proactive approach. SysCloud offers advanced ransomware detection capabilities which helps IT admins avert any potential attacks by scanning backed-up archives for ransomware threats 
If an attack does happen, SysCloud identifies a safe backup snapshot to restore from, keeping damage to a minimum and ensuring business continuity. By spotting suspicious activity early and quickly isolating it, SysCloud helps organizations stay ahead of security threats and maintain trust in their SaaS data environment.
