We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and BDRSuite based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The performance has been fine so far."
"The user interface (UI) is easy to use."
"It's a good solution that's very easy to use. Acronis has two valuable features. The first one is creating images, and the other is starting virtual machines in the cloud so the client can work immediately."
"It actually does its job very well and has interesting capabilities, but it has the most awful interface."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The pricing is fine."
"I like Acronis Cyber Protect's backup process and its management console is intuitive."
"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"The ability to map a drive and restore a separate file is most valuable. The restoration activity is good."
"The scalability is good. It can scale. Adding a new server to a foreign location is easy."
"I like the fact that BDRSuite can connect to VMware ESXi and automatically pull the virtual machines that I have in that environment. I also like that you can choose to back up the compute to the backup server or go straight to the cloud."
"If we do a backup of a machine at some point and the server crashes, then we can restore this machine to a different server with the same settings and setup. We will just have to tweak one or two things, like the IP. Then, it is ready to go."
"Their support is great. I think they work 24 hours a day. I get a very quick turnaround time from them no matter the day or time that I send them an email."
"It suits our needs, is versatile, and the functionality is there."
"Adding and removing backup jobs using BDRSuite is easy and also includes great documentation."
"The most important features are the backup and the availability of the Universal Explorer. The in-transit compression is great."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."
"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."
"It does not delete locked files."
"We would always support better pricing."
"When I first started using Acronis, I found it a little bit confusing when it came to the configuration."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."
"There were issues with the implementation because of incompatibilities between the tool implementation and our current VMware installation. So, it was an implementation issue that doesn't allow me to use it for VMware backup in the manner in which we would want to use it. That wasn't clear from the evaluation stage nor was it clear from the first utilization of it because it worked in the environment that it was being evaluated in. Based on that, we went ahead and made the purchase of the full implementation. At that point, it became clear that there would be limitations in that implementation that could not be overcome without doing upgrades to the production environment."
"I have not been impressed by the data compression of the backup images. They seem to take up nearly as much space on the backup drive as they do on the server."
"The reports are at a basic level and there is room for improvement there. It only has historical reports and VM backup job-level reports."
"The phone [support] system is a negative five on a scale from one to ten, where one is the worst. They wanted me to leave a message. When there is a problem with the product and you call in, you want to talk to somebody or wait to talk to somebody, not leave a message."
"It would be good to have a volume licensing discount. We're a managed IT service provider, so we're backing up not just our own systems but all our clients'. In that regard, as we grow, we're putting business through Vembu. There is not any specific partner incentive at all. So that would be nice to see."
"Maybe they can add some features regarding working with the vCenter cluster to be able to have more power over the cluster overall, not just over a single or specific host. Also, I would like some enhancements in technology for the web interface, e.g., some interactive technologies to advance the interface of Vembu. Although the current interface is very good, maybe they can use more advanced technologies for its web development."
"The deduplication could be better. It doesn't give the level of deduplication that I would get with a product that's stored in a more standard file format. I would prefer to be able to use a non-deduplicated store on a third-party deduplicated medium."
"Scheduling backups is challenging due to the poor quality of the UI."
