"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."

The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support has been consistently excellent. The initial setup is straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup Cloud is the ease of management."

"We find the product to be very scalable."
"The most valuable features are the ease of use, the graphical interface, and it's high speed."
"Global deduplication and the indexing of the data object are the most valuable features. It saves costs on the product side by doing compression and deduplication. It will help you and make your life easy to reach the data that you need within the minimum downtime when it's required."
"It's great for getting data back."
"I can collect the target data, then we connect it to Commvault. There is not another system that can connect to our target database or target storage. This is very important for us, because there is the threat of malware right now. This can protect not only the product, but also the backup data from outside threats."
"The embedded deduplication engine is really good because we use a Near Line SAS disk as a repository for our backups, and we don't need to pay for another appliance such as a Data Domain or Quantum so that we can have hardware-based deduplication."
"The most valuable feature of Metallic is its flexibility and user-friendly."
"The email archiving feature is very smooth and better than others."
"There are many valuable features of Commvault HyperScale X giving many possibilities to complete jobs."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"For you to actually see the full logs, you have to use additional tools or even contact support so they can pull them with own tools."
"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"I would like to have support for agentless backup, where you don't have to install an agent on the host."
"Acronis may claim it's due to security reasons, but I believe there should be an option to delete specific files from old backups stored on the Acronis Cloud. Currently, there is no such feature, and I strongly feel the need for a deletion option for erroneous backups."
"I faced some problems with the solution's local sign-in part."
"It will be good if Acronis can provide more documentation and videos describing how to do different things. Their documentation is good, but it is without examples. They don't have lots of videos. They should put more videos on YouTube to show how to set up certain things, how to restore, and how to back up. They should provide step-by-step documentation and videos for specific scenarios. I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it. If the command line is improved, it will take the product to the next level. It would be great if it can back up data from storage so that people are able to back up old data. Such a feature will make it an enterprise solution for a full backup."
"Commvault HyperScale X is more expensive for hybrid environments than traditional solutions."
"The price of Commvault HyperScale X could improve."
"There is room for improvement in terms of data security."
"The deployment process should be simplified because it is not something that just anybody can do."
"Commvault Complete Data Protection would benefit from improving their training resources."
"Persistent binding is a feature that I would like to see in the next release of Commvault."
"Our customers complain that this is a difficult product to manage."
"They should move the CommServe outside of Windows machines and the database should be distributed among servers. It's still a single point of failure."
