Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."What I like best about Acronis Backup Cloud is the active protection feature that helps you protect your workload from ransomware attacks."
"The most valuable features are its ease of use, the speed, and its got a reasonable amount of granular control."
"Stability is a ten. No issues, no performance drops, and no crashes."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"Data protection and ransomware protection are the most valuable features of the solution."
"The most valuable feature I have found the be the management console it is very easy to use and automation is important. Additionally, overall the solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup Cloud is the ease of management."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud provides unlimited backup features for Office 365 accounts."
"The solution integrates easily."
"The creation of instances is very good, as is their interface which is not complex and is easy to use. With the dashboard it is easy to create a new instance and add your favorite things. You can add Debian, Ubuntu, or CentOS, or any flavor of operating system. You can select the RAM for your instance as well."
"The fact that you can do any Linux distribution is great. You can try out any Linux distribution, even some of the more obscure ones, and they are always keeping them up-to-date. As soon as a new distribution comes out, it is on the platform pretty much the same day, which I find really helpful."
"It is also important that Linode offers worldwide coverage via multiple data centers. The ability to deploy on multiple servers, worldwide, allows us to have distributed services and failover and redundancy."
"The ability to fire up a virtual machine, use it, and then kill it, is quite a valuable feature for me."
"We can scale up and down as we require."
"For small businesses and people who have some technical skills and are good with Linux command line, this solution is great. I love Linode because it is very fast. Whereas, the same configuration on Azure and AWS will be so slow. The best thing is that their pricing and speed are great."
"When it comes to the Linode Kubernetes Engine and the amount of automation it provides, it's awesome, it's a game-changer. If a process randomly dies, it could take me a while to notice that it has died, if I haven't set up monitoring. With Kubernetes, it will just restart itself using Heartbeats."
"They should integrate the solution with Storage Area Network(SAN)."
"They could support Linux OS primarily for servers."
"I would like to see more integration with SIEM solutions."
"The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"Slow response from technical support."
"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it."
"They are already working on the firewalls and VLANs, which need improvement, and are now in beta. I am on the beta program for the firewalls, but I can't use it yet because they are only in Mumbai and Australia, and I am not in those data centres. This is the one thing that I have been waiting for almost since the day that I joined them, so it is nice that they are doing that. The VLANs will be an improvement as well, and I am keen and waiting for that."
"Our primary concern is always the latency."
"There is no notification from the company regarding upgrades."
"One thing that I'd really like to see is auto-scaling node pools for their Kubernetes. I don't think that they have that. That's a huge one and would be very helpful. Specifically, what I would like is auto-scaling node pools that would scale down to zero nodes, which is tricky. That's very important for certain use cases."
"Because they are a smaller company, they do not have, for example, all of the ways for authentication that Amazon or Azure has."
"The product must improve its security."
"I would like Linode (without cluttering things) to provide some type of DevOps workflow where people are configuring their pipelines from running their tests and deploying to their test server. Once approved by clicking a button, it just gets deployed to production. I would like something like Azure DevOps, which we use for large applications, and would be something nice to have in Linode."
"Right now, they don't have multiple data centers. They have limited data centers. I am currently using the Singapore and Mumbai data centers, but I am looking for data centers in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. They need to improve the availability of their data centers and partnership engagements with cloud Panda solution providers, like us."
