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."I have not used other backup solutions to compare how well the features work but I have found Acronis Backup to be user-friendly, overall easy to use, and performance is good."
"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."
"The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use."
"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"Some of the most valuable features are recovery, protection against malware, and software management. I am happy with the dashboards and user interface."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package."
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."
"General ease of use and performance of the Windows version is the most valuable feature."
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"Provides connectivity to a lot of different cloud storage solutions."
"One massive advantage of this solution, as compared to more enterprise products, is that no firewall changes are needed on the client's premises. For the product to back up from the client's premise to the cloud, it just needs port 8 and port 443, which are anyway always open. This was one of the things that made us decide to go with the product. It is very difficult to justify a firewall change for a small client who doesn't even know what a firewall is and how to maintain a firewall, or doesn't have anybody maintaining their firewall. You then have to maintain the firewall. MSP360 Backup takes away firewall change requirements, VPNs, or channels that are needed for the backup."
"Technical support is very good."
"There are times when the backups are slow. A faster backup would be better."
"They've got an agent to back up Microsoft SQL, to our Office 365, but there is not an agent to back up my SQL databases."
"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."
"It would be nice if it could support more types of storage: EMC, HPE, Veeam, etc."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"The biggest problem that we have is when the antivirus is installed, the whole machine runs very slowly and some of the machines hang."
"The reporting can be improved."
"Maybe implement an easier interface for basic users. For example, a set-up wizard with all the commonly used features as default."
"The initial setup is a little complex as it has to be done in the office and requires someone to come in and install the solution on your server, then configure the scheduling, backup pushing, and so on."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"The product could be more user-friendly."
"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."
"The main improvement is that it should have GDPR compliance. That's the problematic point. They say they are GDPR compliant, but they are not."
"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."
"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.""
