Room For Improvement

Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud requires improvements in UI navigation, support speed, pricing, reporting, usability, storage, recovery, and compatibility.
Users seek improvements in Infrascale's bandwidth options, Linux support, SSD use, pricing, data diversity, security, and multi-cloud integration.
I would like to see more mature XDR and EDR features.
Many customers do not rely on just one cloud provider and want to work with multiple clouds.
When the product works, there is really nothing to fix, but they can allow different types of backups, such as differential or incremental backups.
 

Setup Cost

Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is cost-effective, scalable, offers flexible pricing, and includes a free trial with advanced features.
Infrascale Backup offers competitive, flexible pricing ideal for small enterprises, though it requires negotiation and setup costs.
In India, the pricing of Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is relatively low compared to other competitors.
To someone considering Infrascale but is concerned about the price, I would say that they should get Infrascale's service no matter what it costs because any downtime or any loss of data is substantially worse than any cost for backup.
The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others.

Infrascale provides simple, rapid VM boot-up and robust backup, recovery, and protection for servers with a user-friendly interface.
AI functionality enhances malware and threat detection by summarizing vulnerabilities, providing engineers with a direct idea about what needs to be covered.
What I like the most about it is that backups and restores are simple, straightforward, and clean.
Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution.

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.
Harry Vining - PeerSpot reviewer
The overall ease of use and ease of management using the dashboard is excellent
I can't really think of anything that really needs to be improved from my perspective, because I only use the backup. Maybe someone who is using something else might have a different opinion on that. But for the online backup and recovery tool, I'm not going to say there's anything that needs improvement. They can always improve stuff. But from the top of my head, I can't think of anything. It does what it needs to do. That's it. It doesn't need to do anything more than what it does and nothing less than what it's doing. The Infrascale dashboard when it comes to centralized deployment and configuration is excellent. I have no problems with the solution. They could always make it better. They can always make the GUI a little bit nicer, the interface level a bit better. There's always room for improvement, but there's nothing on the top of my head that's saying, "Hey, this is what needs to be fixed." But, the programmers are probably working on their own things. So, there's always room for improvement.
