Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"The setup is very easy."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package."
"I would definitely say the backup and recovery. It used to be a separate module. It was a recovery part and it would literally duplicate the machine to bare bones."
"It actually does its job very well and has interesting capabilities, but it has the most awful interface."
"The solution is exceptional for desktop backup."
"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."
"One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"As our organization functions, we have a total of 2500+ primary sites and 6300+ secondary sites. All of our entire backup systems are totally dependent on this product. EMC Data Domain is very reliable and there are no issues using it since 2015."
"The most valuable feature is the performance because you can back up data really quickly."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The most important feature is the level of data compression provided by Dell EMC. It's a leader in data compression and deduplication, and the level of compression isn't available with any other vendors in the market."
"It's very competitive in terms of the price and technology. Also, the development team continuously makes updates. The data reduction feature is very useful."
"The solution is very scalable."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the integrated deduplication function."
"The compression aspect of the solution is great."
"Their support process can be quite lengthy...This is an area that needs improvement."
"The reporting can be improved."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"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 could use a single sign-on integration that can default to the admin dashboard. Right now, it's only username and password. If you had had an additional two-factor authentication, this would be beneficial for me."
"I wish Acronis had a feature that would allow me to set an expiry date for customers when I send them Acronis, such as when I create a customer workload or gigabyte."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"Acronis Backup has a straightforward initial setup process and an easy-to-use interface. However, a potential issue for Acronis partners is that registered partners do not have access to marketing materials, which can make it difficult for them to reach mass markets and sell the product. This could be improved by allowing registered partners to access marketing materials and tools, such as email templates, that would help them to promote Acronis Backup effectively."
"The firmware upgrades could be simplified. I'm in the process of struggling to upgrade right now."
"Dell PowerProtect DD could improve by having better integration with other backup solutions."
"The downside of PowerProtect's flexibility is that you have so many options. It can be a little confusing. It's like having a car with too many buttons on the dash. You can do so much with it, but it takes some time to learn what everything does."
"The usage of this solution is a bit difficult to develop processes, and it takes a long time to market permits."
"DD Boost."
"Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain) is expensive. Also, it has a sort of a big physical footprint that data domains have, and that's part of the problem."
"Installation and deployment for this product need improvement. These processes need to made easier. Currently, it's not an easy installation for customers. This product needs to be installed by professionals."
"Technical support needs improvement."
