Acronis Cyber Protect vs MSP360 Backup comparison

"The ability to clone backups."

"The user interface (UI) is easy to use."

"Universal Restore is valuable to us."

"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."

"It is a very stable solution."

"The solution's most valuable features are its ease of use and its user-friendly interface compared to other tools."

"This is a full software so deployment time is very quick."

"Acronis Backup is easy to use, intuitive, and has high performance."

"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."

"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."

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

"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."

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

"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."

"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."

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

"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."

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

"The solution needs to have better stability. I would like to improve the tool’s support through calls."

"There are some limitations to the backup."

"It could back up more things. I don't think it can back up Box and some of the other third-party ones. Not that we use them that much, but the more they can do, the better it would be. There could also be better integrations with RMM tools."

"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."

"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."

"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."

"The product could be more user-friendly."

"The solution's pricing is very high."

"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."

"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 solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."

"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."

"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."

"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."

"We have a Cyber Cloud backup license and we have on-premises storage. Both can be useful for our customers."

"Licensing fees are billed annually and there are no extra charges."

"The tool is cheap compared to other products."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"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."

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

"I would say that at the pricepoint that it's at, it's definitely worth the money."

"Doing what this is capable of doing, the cost of it is in line."

"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."

"We have a very good return on investment."

"The solution is expensive."

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

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

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

"Pricing is reasonable although can be quite a large upfront cost."

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