"Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."
"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."
"The solution can scale up to one petabyte right now. It's very good for enterprise-level organizations."
"The initial setup was straightforward. Deployment takes about two weeks."
"The most valuable feature is the inline data deduplication."
"This is a superior and reliable backup system that can handle large capacities with little management."

"The initial setup was complex. We had to deploy it through an external consultant team."
"On the cloud side, security could always be better."
"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."
"It supports Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange, but it does not support Oracle databases or Postgres."
"Improved support for immutability and Utility AirGAP could be beneficial."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"Their support process can be quite lengthy...This is an area that needs improvement."
"First-time integrations are difficult in NetWorker. NetWorker software needs to be simplified. It's very complex."
"The pricing could be better, but it's still not too expensive."
"The usage of this solution is a bit difficult to develop processes, and it takes a long time to market permits."
"DD doesn't have Intel's air gap technology."
"It can probably have integration with other OEMs. It should also have more features for ransomware protection."
"EMC is very expensive for small customers."
"When you use Data Domain, you have to have at least 20% free space so it can work properly. Sometimes we struggle with that, because we wanted to use all the free space, but then Data Domain becomes really slow. I understand that 20% is needed to process all the data, and doing the duplication and compression and all that, but it would be a big improvement if they did not require that 20%, because it is just too much to have available."
"We would like faster instant recovery."
