We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and MSP360 Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."This is a full software so deployment time is very quick."
"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"All the necessary features required to set up a proper backup are already present in Acronis Backup."
"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."
"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."
"For me, the cost is a significant advantage."
"The web-based interface makes it easy to use."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"The solution is easy to access and handles things efficiently."
"Client-side encryption minimizes worries about data being captured on the back-end."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its online backup capacity because you don't have to do an entire backup again and again, it just does whatever you type in, you type a, it goes a, you type b, it goes b. It doesn't take an entire site up again and again. So that incremental and bit by bit backup is important, it is a nice feature here."
"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."
"Technical support is very good."
"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."
"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 would be nice to have it on the cloud platform without using third-party equipment."
"It could back up more things. I don't think it can back up Box and some of the other third-party ones. Not that we use them that much, but the more they can do, the better it would be. There could also be better integrations with RMM tools."
"On the cloud side, security could always be better."
"There are some limitations to the backup."
"The technical support of Acronis Backup could improve. They have the depth of knowledge but the speed of the response could be quicker."
"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."
"As for what can be improved, some reports could be simplified so that you know how much backup you have done and what your backup details are. That report is available but it is very tough to get. I would like to know "today I have just uploaded 35 MB, tomorrow I have loaded 10 MB so my trend of backup is increasing.""
"The Linux GUI leaves a lot to be desired. It lacks many of the features of the Windows version and is buggy, but it is still usable."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The restore time could improve. When we had an issue the restore time was lengthy."
"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."
"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"The product could be more user-friendly."
