What Arq Pro is

Arq Pro centrally manages backups for company, client, or fleet computers through a web console. The console covers enrolled computers, groups, backup plans, storage locations, activity, alerts, and billing. Groups can share plans, storage destinations, and app settings that member computers inherit. Administrators can define destinations such as their own S3-compatible storage and apply them across a fleet. Activity logs and alerts surface issues such as computers that have not backed up recently or plans that are failing. Arq Pro manages macOS and Windows endpoints side by side and supports unattended deployment through MDM using its installer and arqc command-line tool. The deployment guide names Mosyle, Jamf, Kandji, Intune, and Addigy. The service backs up files and includes ransomware protection. The plan costs $250 a month for up to 100 managed computers, with an additional $2.50 per computer per month above that limit. Each new account starts with a 60-day free trial, during which computers can be enrolled and backed up without entering a payment method. Monthly billing is based on active managed computers counted when each charge is made. If a balance remains unpaid, the subscription may be suspended and account computers deactivated, stopping backups.

Good

  • Manages macOS and Windows in one console.
  • Supports unattended MDM deployment.
  • Groups can inherit shared plans and settings.
  • Includes ransomware protection.
  • New accounts get a 60-day trial without a payment method.

Watch out

  • Costs $250 a month for up to 100 computers.
  • Each additional computer costs $2.50 a month.
  • No free plan.
  • Unpaid balances may lead to suspension and deactivated computers.

Who it suits

Arq Pro may suit organizations managing file backups across macOS and Windows fleets, especially those using MDM deployment or shared group settings. It is designed for centrally managed computers rather than a free-plan setup.

Verdict

Arq Pro brings fleet backup management, monitoring, and deployment into one console, with file backup for mixed macOS and Windows endpoints. Account for its per-computer billing and the consequences of an unpaid balance.
