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.

User-friendly, superb customization, and the security is good
One area that is a problem is with the support and the time difference. When technical support is sleeping, we are awake and working, and when we are sleeping, the support is awake and working. Ideally, we would like to have regional support. For newcomers or people who have less experience, it's a complex solution that could be simplified somewhat.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"Data protection and ransomware protection are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"The update process is quite efficient. They send admin alerts one day in advance when updating data centers or products."
"It provides quick backup recovery."
"The product offers a user-friendly dashboard and a seamless backup process"
"The most valuable feature is stability."
"The most valuable feature is the simplicity in configuration and use."
"The most valuable features are the support for both NAS and NFS."
"It's a user-friendly solution."
"It gives you an option to back up to the cloud or back up to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage."
 

Cons

"One of the areas where the product could be improved is its online cloud backup. I do appreciate the way the product is easy to navigate, however, sometimes I have difficulty managing the security permissions on my backups."
"Acronis may claim it's due to security reasons, but I believe there should be an option to delete specific files from old backups stored on the Acronis Cloud. Currently, there is no such feature, and I strongly feel the need for a deletion option for erroneous backups."
"Technical support needs to be improved because they do not respond in a timely fashion."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"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."
"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."
"I would like to see the graphical user interface improved to include all of the functionality because there are some things that you need to use the command-line interface for."
"For newcomers or people who have less experience, it's a complex solution that could be simplified somewhat."
"The features need to be updated to support the latest hardware, as it changes every year."
"There are still a few things on SharePoint that they need to correct in terms of how they backup and restore."
"Better integration with third-party databases and applications is needed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"With the price, there is a certain limitation on terabytes but no limits on how many servers or how many services you can run."
"The solution is moderately priced, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"I am not the one who is paying for it, but based on what I know, it is not very expensive. It has a good price."
"The price of the product falls under a medium range."
"I have been using pay as you go with Acronis, so the price is good.​"
"Acronis offers a 30-day free trial of the product."
"The product is not that expensive, making it a product that can be considered for purchase. I rate the product's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is expensive and ten is cheap."
"Acronis is cost effective and I would rate it two out of ten."
"The pricing is more or less the same as what we'd get from Veeam on Office 365, so it's fine."
"The licensing was based on a three-year subscription and the price is good compared so some other vendors."
"My understanding of the costs is that the price is fair, and not too expensive."
