Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"It's a good solution that's very easy to use. Acronis has two valuable features. The first one is creating images, and the other is starting virtual machines in the cloud so the client can work immediately."
"The backup timing and restoring process is great compared to other options."
"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."
"It has simple buying options and deployments. You can buy on-cloud, on-premises, or hybrid solutions. Acronis Backup is very easy to deploy. It also does not consume much hardware. The administrator's tasks are very simple. It is very user friendly, and it also has good security features with low-level encryption and data encryption."
"One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"We have found the product to be scalable."
"The backup is very secure. The deduplication using EMC is very good. We are able to make systems and handle random cloning. EMC is a very stable solution for making backups."
"The stability is excellent."
"The most valuable features of this product are its guaranteed reliability and its duplication capability."
"The product provides good backup and compression services."
"I like Data Domain as a protocol for data backup."
"The hardware can operate in high temperatures, in case of any disaster."
"The deduplication feature is the most valuable part of the solution."
"I needed tech support to straighten out an issue with cloud backup. I have troubleshooting to do with failed backups."
"We have issues with the SQL databases which are a little shaky."
"The biggest problem that we have is when the antivirus is installed, the whole machine runs very slowly and some of the machines hang."
"There are times when the backups are slow. A faster backup would be better."
"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."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"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."
"The only problem is that it's more expensive than any other vendors available in the market."
"The product lacks some security features that would make it more stand-alone and integrated."
"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 licensing model was the biggest concern for our company, but the poor support after the initial implementation is of equal concern."
"The licensing is not cost-effective, and the pricing could be better."
"Technical support needs improvement."
"I would like to see integration with public cloud."
"DD doesn't have Intel's air gap technology."
