Featured Reviews

Stavros Samiotis - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Ahmad Mohammed EL-DADA - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides server-side and backend application support but needs better interface
The last update made the interface look somewhat unfamiliar to users. Data recovery was technically flawless at some point. However, an update after a merger changed things. The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward as before, and we're facing some challenges. Specifically, one user encrypted their data, and since they have left the company, we cannot decrypt it. This has resulted in a loss of access to that data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Once you deploy, it's very easy to manage. It took us about an hour to deploy."
"One of my favorite features of the Acronis backup product is the ability to replicate the backups. Backup data can be replicated to a second, third, or even fourth data source."
"I have experience with the technical team of the product, and I feel that they offer good support."
"The solution has helped us maintain the backups, compliance, and integrity of the data residing on the servers and endpoints."
"We can block certain ports and USB ports for data loss prevention."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"From a security standpoint, it provides robust protection to prevent system crashes and data loss."
"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"You don't need a certified administrator to manage this product."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"It's incredibly fast."
"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

"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"I would like to have support for agentless backup, where you don't have to install an agent on the host."
"The reporting could be improved. I would like to see some enhancements in that regard."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud needs to be more flexible with its pricing."
"Some proactive alerts or emails are not currently available."
"I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The tool needs to have better protection. The tool should be also able to take backups while users are offline and upload to the cloud whenever the internet connection is restored or if there is a good bandwidth."
"The platform's interface could be user-friendly."
"I think the pricing part of the solution is very complicated, making it an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The one area that needs to improve is the pricing."
"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 speed could be better."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
