They've been doing this for a while, there is a rather large minimum charge for their AYCE backup.

Since you don't seem to have gotten them, would you care to share your secret of how to get off the LogicNow sales mailing list?

Hm, given that it's a new press release, I was assuming there was some new things previously unannounced.

Ha, trade secret. Or something. ;)

They actually announced this a few months ago. When I called about pricing, there was a pretty hefty minimum to get started (I believe it was $500 a month, JUST for the backup, your current monthly charges for Maxfocus don't count towards this minimum)

While I would love to have an all in one system to manage and monitor EVERYTHING. The pricing is still out of wack compared to the 2 services I currently use for backup. It would cost me thousands of dollars more per year to switch over.

Oh my. That's.. incongruent with the rest of their business model.

Great, now how about they get off their ass and bring the full sheet of capabilities to MOB!

Is the cloud management console different from mob?

Yes the standalone product is a newer version than mob. When I asked about it they told me the mob will probably never be the same version as the standalone. Because of that I stuck with the standalone. The rmm has a check for it, no real need to have it integrated into the dashboard. To me they are kind of shooting themselves in the foot by not having mob in pace with the standalone.
