Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."

"I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. "
"From my perspective, the most valuable features in Acronis Cyber Protect include ransomware protection and antivirus. These features not only add significant value but also play a crucial role in closing deals. When selling backup for Microsoft 365, these security features, like ransomware protection and antivirus, serve as a starting point to offer backup and protection."
"The best thing about it is that we can back up pretty much everything we want to. We don't have to have multiple solutions. It can back up any physical or virtual server, including servers in Azure. It can back up SharePoint, OneDrive, and G Suite. Everything we need to back up can be backed up, and that's why we like it."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"For me, the tool proved most valuable in scenarios where it offered easy setup, fast backups, and recognition of SQL logs on virtual machines."
"The main reason we went with Acronis Cyber Protect is because it provides a virtual machine backup feature."
"This solution has a feature called Domain Boost, which allows for source deduplication and compression."
"It works within backup windows and has got good deduplication."
"The most valuable features are the deduplication and compression and the Data Domain Boost."
"I like the different features. We work closely with Dell on different products and features, which is why we use them all."
"Our clients like the wide range of features that are available within this single solution."
"The feature that I have found most useful is its data duplication."
"Stable and scalable suite of solutions with deduplication, apart from data protection, storage, and backup."
"The most valuable feature is the inline data deduplication."
"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"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."
"The product would be better if they offered more integration capabilities."
"I would like to have more cybersecurity integration to properly round up the product and its offering. In terms of cybersecurity, if the offerings can be more versatile so that it is not just a backup solution, it would be great. Some addition to cybersecurity would really be helpful so that it becomes a kind of a suite of products. Backup and recovery form a part of the broader security strategy. Its integration with other cybersecurity solutions would provide proper visibility to not just your cybersecurity dashboard but also to all of your backups. You would have a pretty good view of the entire security landscape that you are managing."
"There are some limitations to the backup."
"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."
"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."
"The software from Dell that can be used to operate Data Domain needs to have enhancements made to the user interface. It is too complex."
"It could be more secure."
"The pricing could be better, but it's still not too expensive."
"DD Boost."
"The licensing model was the biggest concern for our company, but the poor support after the initial implementation is of equal concern."
"EMC is very expensive for small customers."
"Technical support needs improvement."
"The size and scale of the product are limited and could be improved."
