Acronis Disaster Recovery Reviews

We use Acronis Disaster Recovery for our customers. We configure it for various sectors including the pharma industry, education sector, and manufacturing sector to address their data protection needs.

Acronis provides ease of use with all tools and solutions operating through a single console and agent. This reduces the workload on endpoints during backups and other cybersecurity operations. Backup is crucial as it allows data recovery. Email security helps protect against malicious emails. The failover process is preconfigured, offering a simplistic switch over for servers.

My company's customers mostly use the solution for backup purposes, specifically as a cloud backup. I think it is also used as a cloud DR. The government mostly uses the tool, and then we do have some customers in the private sector.

The tool's most valuable feature is in the area of DR because we can use file-level backups and go for file restoration. DR and failover are good features of the tool.

We use Acronis Disaster Recovery because it is a good solution for data recovery. It includes features like patch management and integrated malware and ransomware scanning. We felt the backups are secure and have recovered data successfully in many situations with this solution.

If we are using flash storage, Acronis Disaster Recovery helps reduce both downtime and recovery time.

We have backup services, and all of them are enabled on Acronis Disaster Recovery in another country. In case our production environment collapses, we can start working from the data center in Acronis in less than one hour. We'll work from that so that we don't lose time with the service or have downtime of the services.

We will decide where to send backup services depending on the attack or disaster. We cannot leave them for three months in Acronis. It's for a period of days just to break up and see where we will move the production again.

Patch management, backup, and disaster recovery have been the solution's most valuable features for our data protection strategy.

We distribute Acronis Cloud and every solution in Acronis, including Acronis Disaster Recovery.

Using the backup as an image helps our organization to have a clean machine in disaster recovery. If there is a malware-infected company, we can update the disaster recovery section with a clear backup. 

The ability to automate the backup solution and recover entire mailboxes or even granular-level emails is very good for restoration and backup.

We use the solution to protect production or critical servers from ransomware attacks.

The most valuable feature of the solution is data restoration or data recovery.

We use this solution for running into data centers or full-location data centers for our customers. If any failure happens due to the databases, it backs it up. The uniqueness of the solution is being able to take a backup so the same backup can be used for disaster recovery. So whenever the disaster happens, the same backup can be restored on the machine, which we configure and define. When you call disaster on the infra, the system automatically takes the last backup and then puts up the device with the previous backup. There is a router which fits into the infrastructure that drives all the traffic from the customer data center to the Acronis Disaster Recovery data center, and the product impact becomes low. Hence, the disaster recovery site gets built in 15 minutes, and we can start working on it. We deploy the solution on cloud.

Acronis Disaster Recovery has a test which allows us to test the environment quarterly or every three months. If you are taking a service backup for disaster recovery, it enables you to do the test at no cost. So every quarter, they provide credits allowing you to create a tested disaster, move one or two servers into disaster, and then see the process. So, when a disaster happens, if we have already tested it a couple of times, it becomes straightforward to flip the switch, and disaster recovery happens.
