"Acronis Backup is easy to use."
"It is a very fast and reliable backup, which requires less management and restores quickly."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"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."
"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."
"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"Acronis has a very rich functionality."
"This solution has a feature called Domain Boost, which allows for source deduplication and compression."
"Deduplication and compression are the best features of the solution, which are popular and very effective."
"It's very easy to use the domain once it's been set up. The interface is also user-friendly."
"9900 has around 1.5 petabits of capacity in a single rack, and that's huge."
"Stable and scalable suite of solutions with deduplication, apart from data protection, storage, and backup."
"It is very fast as compared to the other competitors. Its simplicity and bit rate are also valuable. It takes less time if we compare it with the old solution that we have."
"The feature that I have found most useful is its data duplication."
"The most valuable feature is the performance because you can back up data really quickly."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"I've had some issues with the understandability of the interface. I think if they had someone with expertise in user interfaces to look at this, they could clean up the user interface."
"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."
"I can't select a network location. I have to map a drive on the server, and then I have to select the mapped drive in order for it to put the backup out there."
"The backing up of virtual machines in VMware and Nutanix needs better integration and the performance of the solution needs improvement."
"The new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"It supports Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange, but it does not support Oracle databases or Postgres."
"The tool's dashboard for daily operations is useful, but I find that it could benefit from enhancements, particularly in terms of reporting. While exporting reports, the format is not fancy as it appears on the dashboard. The exported files are typically in Excel CSV or PDF format."
"It can probably have integration with other OEMs. It should also have more features for ransomware protection."
"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."
"I would like to see integration with public cloud."
"Looking at Dell PowerProtect DD (Data Domain), there is a need for improvement, especially in terms of protection from cyber resiliency, cyber recovery, or man-in-the-middle attacks."
"We have some problems with backing up on the Power Platform. PowerServer is an IBM product, and it forces us to back up over LAN, which is not suitable for us."
"The initial setup is complex."
"They still have hardware different from the software."
"We encountered data loss during the configuration process."
