"Acronis Backup can improve on the virtualization backups because they are not as good as Veeam Backup."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."

With solutions like NetBackup, I can predict to a much higher degree of certainty how long something will take to complete."
"Interface could possibly be improved."
