We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and Code42 Incydr 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."For my first experience, it is the best software for backups, especially for a five-system backup."
"The Acronis panel is user friendly and tracking backups across a number of different devices is great. Acronis provides prompts and reminders to users if certain files are not backed up."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"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."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"The interface is easy to use. They keep on adding new features. Acronis recently added multi-platform support."
"One of the features I have found most valuable is the restore point - it gives us what we need at the time we need it. The important thing is that the backup for Acronis doesn't depend as much on the device."
"It has quite a bit of flexibility in configuring backup sets."
"It required very little ongoing maintenance once setup."
"There are a couple of things. One of them is that they have what they call Incydr. Their detection and response solution to the insider threat area is called Incydr. That gives visibility to the clients that have widely dispersed employee bases due to work from home, or that had a dispersed workforce predating any of the work from home requirements. Even though they might not be inside the organization physically, they're inside the organization. It allows us to get some visibility into what people are doing, what the context is, and how to control what might be the potential for intellectual property theft or file exposure."
"Risk factors can be adjusted for all intricate details."
"Code42 Next-Gen DLP is scalable."
"It had the ability to preseed by sending in a data drive and could restore by sending the user a data drive."
"Backup and recovery have been great, but I love having the ability to keep the hybrid type build which they offer."
"Security tools: Being able to monitor data going in and coming off our endpoints. Seeing what it is and where it's going is awesome."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"The UI performance can be slow at times, especially when handling operations like checking backup status or initiating a restore. The response time for these actions could be improved."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"No technical support and minimal documentation."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"One improvement that could be made is adding the option to download files in a PST format when doing a 365 or Google Cloud to cloud backup."
"Due to recent changes that effectively abandoned an entire segment of their user base, I no longer trust nor can recommend Code42 products."
"The application, written in Java, required far more system resources on a Client than other solutions."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"You can't always filter out data that you'd like to."
"Java, please get rid of Java."
"What I think could be improved is how I get support."
"In a couple of instances, we had a little bit of trouble in getting it distributed throughout the organization. We ultimately managed to do it, but they talk about it being a pretty simple process, and it became a little laborious. It would just turn away. The agents were not being distributed. It was just churning and churning and churning. When we were looking for specific categories of data, it was getting bogged down, but that was not even so much Code42, although some of it was their issue."
"More security would be nice, I would love to be able to remotely brick a stolen laptop and it's hard disk drive (HDD)."
