Acronis Cyber Protect Reviews

It's fast and easy for image-based backup across all platforms. The user interface is easy to use, and I used it on a virtual server, as a backup server.

It solved our problem with Linux servers by giving us an image based backup system that is easy to use. It's even better than Symantec system recovery, as it it more user friendly, as well as being easier to use in general.

It would be nice if it could support more types of storage.

As far as I know , acronis is multiplatform destination support, but as I said, working with Acronis is much easier that Symantec. You may get confused most of the time when using Symantec. I used Acronis for network storage.

The recovery system works great. I recovered the systems in few minutes from a disaster. It has a very clear and easy to use Interface. The vast amount of knowledge base articles on its site is great for troubleshooting issues. I liked the feature to split backups into multiple files to fit different media types. It has data encryption, which encrypts your backups as a security precaution.

I found logs are not enough for troubleshooting in case of failures. Absence of file filtering tools is disappointing. Does not provides advance backup solution like granular backup of emails.

I bought this software for backup of workgroup based computers and it worked great for them. Scheduling was quite easy and the recovery process was awesome. Due to some power failure our 10 systems crashed which were recovered in few minutes by the Acronis recovery partition. However it lacks advance features like granular backup and data filtering hence unsuitable for enterprise level.

Backup and Recovery for our production PCs.

End user can manage backup and recovery on its own efficiently once a product PC has failed during production. 

The ability to use computing resources, the storage nose is stuck frequently and we have to reboot it, and I'm told that it needs 128GB memory and SAS disk to keep it stable, all of these elements leave me unsatisfied.

We just started deploying the product company-wide.

Yes, it's for HW requirement described above, because we hadn't been told the requirement by Acronis before we started.

Yes see above.

Nope.

We were using Altiris. 

It was straightforward.

We did it on our own based on the design provided by Acronis.

Optimize resource usage on dedup, look at Avamar which has dedup capability with moderate usage.

One license per VMware Host to backup all the VMs on that particular host.

Management console is able to control all backups from one location.

Error log interpretation will come back with some great big number, then it will want to go to the internet, but it is a silent site. Unfortunately, we aren’t able to really tell what is going on.

I have used the solution for five to six years.

No issues with stability.

No, but it doesn’t do cleanup at all. I have set to keep data for four months on some backups, then they are marked to be deleted, but never delete. Consequently, I run out of disk space, then I manually have to purge the backups from the management console. This feature has never worked.

Very knowledgeable.

This was our first solution.

It was fairly straightforward.

It is better than most.

Veeam. They seemed okay, but they didn’t do physical computers and I needed both.

If you are looking to implement this product, "Do it."

Acronis needs to improve several things. They need to improve storage, backup plans, and stability.

I've used Acronis Backup for the past two years.

Acronis Backup is unstable.

Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all.

Acronis support is pathetic. It takes five days to open the case. 

We've worked with a lot of products, including Microsoft and Nutanix. Out of all of them, the one I like is Nutanix. Many of our solutions are Microsoft products, and Nutanix recently launched a cloud solution.

I rate Acronis Backup three out of 10. 

On-premises

I am using it for testing, to investigate the program.

For me, the valuable feature is that they are looking forward at some cloud integrations and to bring in some of their solutions for Azure and other clouds. It's possible to use the solution not only on-premise but also in some cloud environments that have been growing lately.

They also have a very big knowledge base and support. If you don't know something or something goes wrong, you can always find yourself a solution or contact help and receive good consultation.

They need to continue working on it to make it work more smoothly and faster.

I am satisfied with the stability.

Scalability is good.

I have been satisfied with technical support.

The setup was average, not very hard but also not a one-click installation.

it's better to search for a solution from among the top vendors. Acronis is one of them. In any environment you need a backup solution and protection for disaster recovery. You need to use a solution to back up your servers and Active Directory, etc. Acronis is quite a good solution for that.

The most important criteria when selecting a vendor are the vendor's reputation and the quality of the solution.

When system failure occurs, Acronis restores exact server or workstation copies to a new hard drive and reduces the downtime.In case of system failure we use universal restore option to recover archived backup files to a completely new system.Built in backup schemes are available within the software to fulfill most common backup tasks while you can configure detailed settings to meet your specific backup requirements.Outstanding reporting tool is included for customizable notifications and alerts.

Requires a committed effort to learn this comprehensive software

Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 is packed with drive imaging and file base backup features. It is capable of protecting both physical and virtual servers with its flexible policy based management.

Acronis Backup & Recovery is an award winning software with multiple facilities. The most important thing is that it has an easy GUI based using console. You can schedule the software for a convenient time and data backup will be done automatically with a notification. You can also clone (Image) entire hard disks as well. Different types of backup facilities are available with the software like incremental backup, full backup, and differential backup. Acronic software does not provide only backup and restore facilities, but it also provides sync facilities between different computers on your network. It supports different types of hardware and operating system platforms (Windows & Linux). You can create an online backup outside of your network in a secure way.

The installation file consumes 1 GB of space on your hard disk. Restore processes fail sometimes if the file is corrupt. System performance slows down while the backup process is running from the network.

It’s a complete solution for data backup and recovery. It provides offline and online backup facilities. It’s available for your server and desktop as well.
