Restores files accidentally deleted by developers and efficiently blocked a lot of attacks against our servers
The backup, the vulnerability assessment, and the anti-malware capabilities have been most impactful for data protection. Acronis approaches cybersecurity holistically, focusing on five key pillars: * Protection * Detection * Response * Recovery * Forensics It covers the need to block threats, investigate incidents, and ensure disaster recovery. This approach aligns well with current cybersecurity trends, including backups and deploying Malware Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems alongside Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) systems. While it doesn't yet include features like password management or security awareness training for end-users, Acronis has announced plans to integrate those in upcoming updates.

Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
It removes the headache and hassle for users. However, there’s a critical issue, especially with endpoint users: any change made will immediately reflect, and another problem is that the backup only retains data for 30 days.  Some users change files they might not remember or need to revert after a…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"We can use the tool to set up an automated backup from our on-premises server directly to the cloud."
"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"I have found many of the backup options valuable such as logging the event backup and the ability to run an analysis of the backup before you start for problems."
"We like the backup functionality."
"The most valuable feature I have found the be the management console it is very easy to use and automation is important. Additionally, overall the solution is easy to use."
"The product has been very reliable from day one. The biggest advantage of the cloud is that you can scale up and down as you go along."
"A valuable feature is the user-friendly control management. I appreciate the integrated service, where just one agent and one virtual management are needed to handle everything. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support has been consistently excellent. The initial setup is straightforward."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"It's incredibly fast."
"Users do not need to contact IT administrators to recover lost or deleted files. They can do it on their own, eliminating waiting time."
"It has a straightforward installation."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"One of the most valuable features is it is available on the cloud, so I do not need to make a firewall. Second, the backup speed is outstanding. The third thing is that the section policy is very good and gives you a lot of flexibility and granularity regarding what you need to back up."
 

Cons

"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"It will be good if Acronis can provide more documentation and videos describing how to do different things. Their documentation is good, but it is without examples. They don't have lots of videos. They should put more videos on YouTube to show how to set up certain things, how to restore, and how to back up. They should provide step-by-step documentation and videos for specific scenarios. I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it. If the command line is improved, it will take the product to the next level. It would be great if it can back up data from storage so that people are able to back up old data. Such a feature will make it an enterprise solution for a full backup."
"It would be better if the price of the solution was improved for medium-sized businesses. Moreover, the email security should be improved. We are awaiting new updates on the product."
"​For you to actually see the full logs, you have to use additional tools or even contact support so they can pull them with own tools."
"I faced some problems with the solution's local sign-in part."
"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."
"In the solution, you have the customization option for reports but it is limited and should allow more customizations in terms of how long or when you can do the reports."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"Druva inSync is very high in price. A general customer cannot afford this solution. Even if the product is good, people cannot afford such a high cost just for taking the backup. This is a recurring investment, and the customers have to pay for it every year. Druva is also yet to develop the channel and the channel or partner commitment."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"It would be good if bare metal backups were possible."
