Acronis Cyber Protect vs MSP360 Backup comparison

"This is a perfect option for an SMB."

"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup is the data recovery and restoration details."

"All the necessary features required to set up a proper backup are already present in Acronis Backup."

"Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."

"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are instant restore, antivirus, and ransomware protection. Additionally, the documentation is good."

"I can encrypt the data, I can make it send me an email if it fails. It lets me choose which files I want to ignore during backup."

"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."

"From my perspective, the most valuable features in Acronis Cyber Protect include ransomware protection and antivirus. These features not only add significant value but also play a crucial role in closing deals. When selling backup for Microsoft 365, these security features, like ransomware protection and antivirus, serve as a starting point to offer backup and protection."

"The most valuable feature for me is that I can see what has has been successfully backed up and what not. I do not mean the file or folder view, because that's problematic with GDPR, but I mean which machines have successfully backed up. It's very valuable because you don't have to check the machines. The second feature is that you can change backup settings in the portal."

"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."

"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."

"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."

"Block level transfers have significantly reduced the amount of time for transfers over some other solutions"

"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."

"Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions."

"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."

"The whole product structure is confusing. You can actually get to do what you want to do. But Acronis seems to have a singular ability to make things difficult."

"The cost of Acronis Cyber Protect is good, but as a general judgment here in Egypt, the economic situation is not good. If they can provide a waiver or discount for low-income countries, it would help to spread adoption."

"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."

"The solution could use a single sign-on integration that can default to the admin dashboard. Right now, it's only username and password. If you had had an additional two-factor authentication, this would be beneficial for me."

"We would always support better pricing."

"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."

"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."

"The replication part and failover are areas in which improvements are required."

"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""

"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."

"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."

"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."

"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."

"The solution's pricing is very high."

"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."

"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."

"The pricing is comparable to the newest solution available on the market, Altaro."

"Its price is quite friendly on the pocket. You need to pay the licensing cost upfront, and then the support charges are on an annual basis."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"It has already paid off itself in the first few months that we implemented it."

"We were on a perpetual license for Acronis Backup."

"If the solution was less expensive it would be better."

"I would describe the product as a mid-priced tool for small and medium businesses."

"I would rate the solution’s pricing an eight out of ten. The tool’s subscription is yearly."

"Its pricing needs improvement."

"The solution is expensive."

"MSP360 is vastly cheaper than its competitors and has almost all the same features."

"The cost is pretty inexpensive. Around four to five dollars per device, per workstation on each server."

"We have a very good return on investment."

"It includes a standard licensing fee. Once a year, there is a rebranding fee. The licensing costs are available on the internet for MSP360 Backup. There is a discount structure where if you have over 50 devices, you get a 50% discount. So, my cost is $2 a license per month."

"It provides a good cost savings compared to our previous cloud backup."

"I rate the price of MSP360 Backup a seven out of ten."
