We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and N2WS Backup & Recovery 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."In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"One of the most valuable features of Acronis is its AnyData Engine which allows any device to connect to any other device for the purpose of data restoration."
"For me, the cost is a significant advantage."
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"This is a full software so deployment time is very quick."
"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."
"N2WS Backup & Recovery is very easy to use and configure backup for AWS instances."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use."
"The initial setup is easy."
"Provides easy, one-click functionality and flexible backup policies and schedules for AWS workloads."
"The recovery time is fantastic and proven. Also, by providing a simple interface, the solution lowers the cost."
"The backup and restore functionality is very easy to use and manage."
"The product is successful with the SMB market."
"The backup and recovery are the most valuable features. So, our developers can work with confidence."
"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 new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"If there was a wizard that would lead you down a road, when creating a backup, that would probably be better than having to go online or call somebody to actually do a backup. It's not intuitive..."
"I would like to have more cybersecurity integration to properly round up the product and its offering. In terms of cybersecurity, if the offerings can be more versatile so that it is not just a backup solution, it would be great. Some addition to cybersecurity would really be helpful so that it becomes a kind of a suite of products. Backup and recovery form a part of the broader security strategy. Its integration with other cybersecurity solutions would provide proper visibility to not just your cybersecurity dashboard but also to all of your backups. You would have a pretty good view of the entire security landscape that you are managing."
"The solution's reporting feature could be better."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."
"The UI is a little dated and hard to use. Some of the buttons are a bit small. You have to go into the menu to get the settings you want."
"Additional features I would like to see are the ability to restore to different vendors, AWS and Azure, and/or the ability or take the information out of the AWS cloud."
"More documentation would be helpful, especially some step-by-step documents for recovery scenarios."
"The GUI has room for improvement."
"The solution has the option to take backup on-prem servers, but it's not very efficient."
"The GUI could be slightly improved."
"It's a global feature that the customer thinks they don't have enough tools to manage, to copy, to delay, and to classify the object file in the backup directory. So they need more tools to manage files in object directory."
"There is room for improvement in stability."
