Stuart Grigor - PeerSpot reviewer
Good backup solution but challenges with the stability
It is recommended that people know what they are starting with. A part of our challenge was we bought and needed to implement it. So by the time we went to implement it, we were running into support issues. Also, make a market comparison to ensure that the product you choose is what you want to end up with. I would give it a six out of ten because restoring from a backup takes longer than usual. It should happen in a matter of hours, not a matter of days. We are yet to have an experience when trying to restore from Acronis that we haven't had to wait at least a couple of days for our server to be available for testing or working.

Offers good time navigation features and we haven't had stability problems in the twelve years we've been using it
The initial setup was supposed to be complex, and a guy from Atempto went to our site and they did it with us together. So, in the end, it was quite clear and straightforward. The deployment took one day. From time to time, we require maintenance. Most things can be done also automatically. We prefer to do some manually like recycling virtual cartridges. Two people are required for maintenance. Two people use it daily. Time Navigator runs daily, for some backups, even more, three, four times a day, for critical stuff. But for intervention, we have two, three per week.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The backup timing and restoring process is great compared to other options."
"This is a full software so deployment time is very quick."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package."
"The most valuable feature is its consistency."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that you can archive backups quite easily and minimize the amount of space you're using."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."
"The time navigation is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"The product needs to have a simple DR process."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We have sometimes issues with the child copies and other similar functions, but it's normal with any backup solution. We need to fix those issues first in order for us to be able to do the backup properly."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"The solution's reporting feature could be better."
"I can't select a network location. I have to map a drive on the server, and then I have to select the mapped drive in order for it to put the backup out there."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"They are working on the improvement we're looking for. The web GUI is flash-based and in around one or two months, they will put everything on HTML5."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"It has already paid off itself in the first few months that we implemented it."
"We have a Cyber Cloud backup license and we have on-premises storage. Both can be useful for our customers."
"Acronis Backup is cheaper. If you install it on a hypervisor, you only pay for a single license. It would be for the backup server, and everything else will be covered by it. In that sense, it becomes a much cheaper option. However, if you have virtual machines, then it can be more expensive. Also, if you have a lot of physical machines the cost can be higher because each entity will need a separate license. There is a monthly license cost."
"The price is reasonable."
"You don't have to pay for licenses. You can pay per gig per month. It is pretty reasonable, especially when you do it per gig."
"It is very cost-effective for the SMB segment, especially for start-ups and smaller environments. It is cost-effective for on-premises and on-cloud deployments in such environments."
"We use the free version that provides very basic functionalities."
