Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The main reason we went with Acronis Cyber Protect is because it provides a virtual machine backup feature."
"If you need to recover, it's the best recovery software I've ever used and I've been in this business for over 30 years. Plug a disc in and tell it to recover this machine and it's done. You walk away from it and it's done. Reboot it and it's perfect."

"I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. "
"From my perspective, the most valuable features in Acronis Cyber Protect include ransomware protection and antivirus.

"If there was a wizard that would lead you down a road, when creating a backup, that would probably be better than having to go online or call somebody to actually do a backup. It's not intuitive..."

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