Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use."
"In terms of system-critical support, Acronis' technical support does really well. I would give them an eight out of ten for that."
"The pricing is fine."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"Some of the most valuable features are recovery, protection against malware, and software management. I am happy with the dashboards and user interface."
"It actually does its job very well and has interesting capabilities, but it has the most awful interface."
"Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."
"The solution can scale up to one petabyte right now. It's very good for enterprise-level organizations."
"It works within backup windows and has got good deduplication."
"The features that I have found most valuable with Dell EMC PowerProtect DD are its deduplication feature and its DD Boost protocol for fast transfer, which is amazing."
"The most valuable features of Dell PowerProtect DD are ease of use and deduplication."
"PowerProtect is a flexible solution that you can cover various cloud and on-premise environments."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"It is stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"It is secure, reliable, and has officer support."
"Because Acronis Backup is an on-premises solution, there is extra overhead. It's harder to manage, and there's no real remote access. You have to physically log in to the machine to manage it. The reporting feature works fine, and you will be able to send out reports. However, that is where it stops. The deployment could be improved and could be through a network chain. If we need to deploy two machines that are not connected to the internet but connected to two different networks, it would be great to have a machine with dual mix that has access to the backup server and to those machines. It would be like a relay that you can install on the machine with a two-mix, and that machine can then connect to your backup server and to the other machines. You should be able to see the other machines on that network and be able to deploy to it and push jobs to it."
"The new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"We would always support better pricing."
"The problems that we face are often related to the customer's network, although sometimes there are problems with the software, such as an error in the configuration."
"The solution needs to have better stability. I would like to improve the tool’s support through calls."
"No technical support and minimal documentation."
"The initial setup was complex. We had to deploy it through an external consultant team."
"The dashboards for digital operations can be improved."
"The licensing model was the biggest concern for our company, but the poor support after the initial implementation is of equal concern."
"They're scalable."
"They still have hardware different from the software."
"They should reduce the CPC cost to customers. The product is becoming very expensive."
"We encountered data loss during the configuration process."
"DD Boost."
"Dell PowerProtect DD could improve by having better integration with other backup solutions."
"Technical support needs improvement."
