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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

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

"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."

"I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. "

"It actually does its job very well and has interesting capabilities, but it has the most awful interface."

"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."

"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."

"The solution is stable and reliable."

"It is a very fast and reliable backup, which requires less management and restores quickly."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pros

"The user interface is very user-friendly, making it easy for customers to understand and use."

"Vinchin Backup & Recovery supports most mainstream private cloud platforms, including VMware, Nutanix, and Microsoft Hyper-V, as well as many Chinese-based products."

Cons

"When you are using enterprise hardware and software that increases over time, there need to be better and more management features. For pure backup software, it is fine, but when it comes to managing a large infrastructure it is lacking."

"The support takes too much time to respond to callbacks. Calls are often scheduled around four to five PM and tend to occur with a two-hour delay each time."

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

"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."

"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."

"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."

"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."

"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."

More Acronis Cyber Protect cons

"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I think that the prices of the product go up every year. If one is extremely expensive and ten is absolutely cheap, I rate the product price as six."

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

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

"The cost of updates is less than $100 USD yearly."

"We use the free version that provides very basic functionalities."

"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."

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

"The current subscription model of Acronis Backup compared to other backup solutions is not costly."
