Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The backup timing and restoring process is great compared to other options."
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"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."
"The solution is exceptional for desktop 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."
"Since the last version, everything has been improved."
"Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."
"In terms of system-critical support, Acronis' technical support does really well. I would give them an eight out of ten for that."
"Good starting capacity and scalability."
"The product, a disk backup solution, improves our data application tasks. We used tape libraries with Dev drives in legacy architectures, resulting in slow backups compared to modern drives like NVMe and SSDs. By transitioning to NVMe and SSDs, backups have become much faster. The tool's backup restoration is faster compared to other tools."
"We are very satisfied with this solution. It's easy to use and efficient."
"This is a superior and reliable backup system that can handle large capacities with little management."
"The most valuable features of Dell PowerProtect DD are ease of use and deduplication."
"The product provides good backup and compression services."
"The most valuable features of this product are its guaranteed reliability and its duplication capability."
"Stable and scalable suite of solutions with deduplication, apart from data protection, storage, and backup."
"Their support process can be quite lengthy...This is an area that needs improvement."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"We needed to have help from the vendor for implementation. The vendor used two personnel. We have system administrators and they do the server backups themself."
"If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."
"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."
"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."
"No technical support and minimal documentation."
"I would like to see better centralized management, because I use it across multiple clients. To have a console that centrally manages them would be nice."
"The product lacks some security features that would make it more stand-alone and integrated."
"The initial setup is complex."
"The pricing model needs to be improved."
"It could be more secure."
"DD doesn't have Intel's air gap technology."
"I would like to see better integration and support for backing up to cloud providers such as Alibaba Cloud."
"They should reduce the CPC cost to customers. The product is becoming very expensive."
"The size and scale of the product are limited and could be improved."
