Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup is the data recovery and restoration details."
"The setup is very easy."
"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 have not used other backup solutions to compare how well the features work but I have found Acronis Backup to be user-friendly, overall easy to use, and performance is good."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"For my first experience, it is the best software for backups, especially for a five-system backup."
"The tool’s licensing and pricing are economical for SMB customers."
"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."
"Good starting capacity and scalability."
"9900 has around 1.5 petabits of capacity in a single rack, and that's huge."
"The initial setup was straightforward. Deployment takes about two weeks."
"It is stable. I would rate the stability of the solution a nine out of ten."
"Stable and scalable suite of solutions with deduplication, apart from data protection, storage, and backup."
"The compression aspect of the solution is great."
"The tool's performance is very good. DD Boost can improve its performance and backup."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the integrated deduplication function."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"A little bit more integration would be good. It should support broader platforms."
"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..."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"It does not delete locked files."
"They've got an agent to back up Microsoft SQL, to our Office 365, but there is not an agent to back up my SQL databases."
"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."
"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."
"It could be more secure."
"Dell PowerProtect DD could improve by having better integration with other backup solutions."
"The pricing should be adjusted. Customers continuously talk about the price. They know it is a good solution and they really need the type of storage the solution offers, but it costs somewhere around $100,000 and up. It's not cheap, but it's very important for data vendors."
"Dell EMC Data Domain needs to have better compatibility between NetWorker and the hardware. NetWorker is not as good as the other products which are currently on the market like Backup Exec."
"They should reduce the CPC cost to customers. The product is becoming very expensive."
"The product lacks some security features that would make it more stand-alone and integrated."
"The pricing could be lower."
"The price could be improved."
