"Stability is a ten. No issues, no performance drops, and no crashes."
"The product has been very reliable from day one. The biggest advantage of the cloud is that you can scale up and down as you go along."
"The solution has helped us maintain the backups, compliance, and integrity of the data residing on the servers and endpoints."
"The platform's most valuable features include its backup functionality, particularly the snapshot and image backup capabilities."
"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"One of my favorite features of the Acronis backup product is the ability to replicate the backups. Backup data can be replicated to a second, third, or even fourth data source."
"The product offers very easy configuration capabilities."
"It has significantly reduced the amount of manual work required to manage our backup operations. We're going from an on-prem to a non-on-prem, we're all doing nonsolutions. So we really can't compare it against anything else."
"The cloud integration is a massive win for us, giving us a single backup service for all of our on-premise and cloud systems."
"The most valuable feature is Commvault's coverage. It has wide coverage to back up every data center environment. The product can back up OpenStack, OpenShift, and competitive solutions don't have this feature. Commvault can handle backing up any virtual workload or enterprise application."
"The rate of duplication is great."
"Well documented SQL views and customizable reports, together with scripts and workflows provides ability to automate processes and ensure proper controls are in place."
"Backup and archive with a single window, with a single backup job. You only need to type "c"."
"Security measures, including encryption and threat detection, contribute significantly to data protection, safeguarding against unauthorized access and cyber threats."
"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."
"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."
"Not many people know about this product, so they may need to concentrate more on marketing."
"We'd like to see more DLP, data loss prevention."
"I would like to see enhancements made to the security."
"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"The agent stability needs improvement."
"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."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"They can always improve the interface design to make it easier. Sometimes, you need to click two or three times to do something. They should look at what tabs are used most and make them more accessible, to cut the time it takes to get to that information."
"The solution's breadth and depth of cloud support are good, but could be better. Some cloud features that are common-sense, especially on AWS, are not completely integrated yet in the product. They are a work-in-progress."
"Commvault HyperScale X is more expensive for hybrid environments than traditional solutions."
"When we send a query to Commvault, they take a long time to answer our questions."
"Its technical support could be better."
"Endpoint backup."
"The product does not provide an option to save a copy of data on-premises."
"If I were to ask them to work on something, it would be the fidelity of the alerts that occur. They should tell me if it is a real event or not. It is easy for it to identify that something hit it but give me more information. They can build AI into the engine so that I get better output from an alert to tell me if I should really be interested in that or not."
