Helps our organization with data recovery and backing up complete data centers

Provides us with the ability to back up Red Hat Virtualization, but that ability is not native

They said they can support Red Hat Virtualization and we assumed that they support any compatible system but we found we need to do a network backup or a network image, which is not what it said on their website. I have had many discussions with them about where this component is. Initially, I was searching for a component which would back up Red Hat Virtualization. They said they support this in the same way they support Hyper-V and VMware. I haven't found the feature in their portal or in any of their software. They haven't made a special agent for it, in the way they did for Hyper-V. When we were in negotiations and discussing this with their pre-sales, we said we haven't found any documents from them talking about how they support Red Hat Virtualization. At the end of the day they said, "No, we deal with Red Hat Virtualization in the same way that we take an image of a file through the network." It's not native in the solution itself. For VMware they have a special agent. But for Red Hat, it's just a network backup, the same as files. When I asked about a license to support Red Hat, they said you just take the network backup and it will do the same job. For the moment, that is fine for us. We will take the image. But it is not what we expected from the product.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The Acronis panel is user friendly and tracking backups across a number of different devices is great. Acronis provides prompts and reminders to users if certain files are not backed up."

"Acronis Backup is easy to use, intuitive, and has high performance."

"I can encrypt the data, I can make it send me an email if it fails. It lets me choose which files I want to ignore during backup."

"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."

"The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is that you can do a bare-metal restore even with dissimilar hardware."

"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."

"The licensing model is very good."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pros

"Valuable features include Snapshots and the constant backup for SQL, application services, and Active Directory."

"Their technical support is very good to work with, as they are able to propose alternate solutions to problems that work well for us."

"We use it to maintain critical data and save it."

"Vembu provides us with a way to instantly recover data. It offers instant data recovery through a local backup server deployed at the customer's site. We can quickly recover data either by copying it back to the main server or if the backup server is powerful enough, we can also directly start a virtual machine from the backup."

"The agentless backups are the big selling point on this, as well as being able to send out across sites so that I can do a restore at either of our two locations."

"It's easy to restore."

"BDRSuite can help organizations save time and money by automating backup and recovery processes and reducing the need for manual intervention."

"Their support is great. I think they work 24 hours a day. I get a very quick turnaround time from them no matter the day or time that I send them an email."

More BDRSuite pros

Cons

"The solution needs to have better stability. I would like to improve the tool’s support through calls."

"I have no suggestions for improvements as I have only used the product for a month and have yet to really discover all of its aspects."

"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."

"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."

"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."

"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."

"The solution could improve by providing more database backup features and have better integration with many different types of databases. We cannot implement it in all of our infrastructures."

"This is not a feature-rich solution."

More Acronis Cyber Protect cons

"The reporting can use some improvement. I still use the old StoreGrid Cloud while I'm migrating the rest of my clients over. I am able to export all of my clients' usage for the month, which I then import into my billing program. It helps me speed up the billing process. Also, I can generate a report that gives me statuses of everyone's backup, which I don't get from Vembu Backup Online either. I would like to have something similar where I can export everyone's usage at any time for all their backups, so I can use that to import them to my billing program."

"I have not been impressed by the data compression of the backup images. They seem to take up nearly as much space on the backup drive as they do on the server."

"They need to improve their marketing because not many people are aware of it. People ask me what is Vembu, and I have to explain to them it is a good tool for backup and other things."

"BDRSuite could improve support for XenApp Citrix Backup."

"It's not that stable yet. Every two weeks, my backup will stop and I have to check it."

"Windows 10 does not have application-aware backups. From my point of view, that's what's existing needs improvement."

"There are bugs. For one month, I encountered a big issue where my storage pool could not be identified. My backups were stopped because they were not able to locate the storage pool. So, I removed the settings and started the backups again. The application is not stable. It needs some debugging and testing on the build side of production."

"The initial setup process can be more simplistic and quicker."

More BDRSuite cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is significantly higher than it was last year, which is understandable since they have introduced new technology, such as transitioning from backup to cybersecurity."

"The price is reasonable."

"When it comes to elements like cost, I think it is the only backup solution which has perpetual licenses, whereby you buy the license once and for all."

"It is a low-cost solution."

"The tool is cheap compared to other products."

"We have a Cyber Cloud backup license and we have on-premises storage. Both can be useful for our customers."

"We pay a yearly subscription fee and the pricing is reasonable."

"Pricing is what it is. I don't shop around once I find a good solution. I insist they maintain ongoing support year after year for updates and tech support."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pricing and cost advice

"The licensing model is quite complicated; it's not simple. An example: If you have a physical server, you have to pay more for that license than you do for a host. It could be running several VMs and that could be a server VM as well. Then, for web station machines, there is no license for those machines and they have no desktop OS - the free version has all this functionality. Their license model needs to be looked at and simplified."

"I think it is a good value for the price."

"BDRSuite, although cost-efficient, is more expensive than most other providers."

"I do remember that the pricing was based on a VMware or Hyper-V license, whereas on our end, it should be regarded as a VM-based license. I don't know why they make a difference at the Vembu level. We are currently on VMware migrating to Hyper-V, and we didn't want to buy licenses for VMware, but still have to buy them for Hyper-V. This the only thing which does not seem fully adequate."

"The pricing and licensing structure are spot on. I don't think there's anything out there in the market that does either the licensing structure or the pricing structure better."

"It is very cost efficient, effective. I’d say it's one-third the cost of Veritas when compared to the server backups. I even tried image backups on Acronis, but Acronis is very expensive. So these are some of the key reasons why I opted for it."

"I've purchased and been licensed for one aspect of it, which is my preferred method, but the pricing and licensing will not work for the short-term and I can't draw back."

"BDRSuite is competitively priced."
