Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud has very easy backup and recovery capabilities.""The disaster recovery feature.""The product offers very easy configuration capabilities.""A valuable feature is the user-friendly control management. I appreciate the integrated service, where just one agent and one virtual management are needed to handle everything. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support has been consistently excellent. The initial setup is straightforward.""I have found many of the backup options valuable such as logging the event backup and the ability to run an analysis of the backup before you start for problems.""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.""I would recommend this solution. It's easy and fast, you don't need to be on-premises you can use it from anywhere.""The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Pros →

"Scalability is very good.""One feature that works well for us is that the Cloud Manager is a completely agentless solution. There's a similar dashboard on both the versions for on-premises and the cloud, and with reference to the Cloud Manager, it's a little faster because there's nothing to be installed as such. Being agentless, it doesn't require any agent to be deployed on the targets where the backups are triggered.""NetApp Cloud Backup performance is good and they have beneficial technology."

Cons
"In the solution, you have the customization option for reports but it is limited and should allow more customizations in terms of how long or when you can do the reports.""What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients.""The pricing policies could be improved. So in future releases of the product, I would like to see better pricing, primarily.""It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved.""I faced some problems with the solution's local sign-in part.""Technical support needs to be improved because they do not respond in a timely fashion.""​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.""I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The tool needs to have better protection. The tool should be also able to take backups while users are offline and upload to the cloud whenever the internet connection is restored or if there is a good bandwidth."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Cons →

"NetApp Cloud Backup could improve by being easier to use. Veeam solution is easier to use.""Integration and reporting could be improved.""One area that can be improved is around how we define the different KPIs. In particular, the business KPIs. I have my own in-house application for the business KPIs, so for example, with our policies around retention, which is a period of seven years, I have to read these parameters from other applications and I need them to integrate well."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I have been using pay as you go with Acronis, so the price is good.​"
  • "There is a free trial available in order for people to evaluate it."
  • "With the price, there is a certain limitation on terabytes but no limits on how many servers or how many services you can run."
  • "We pay for whatever we use, and they bill us accordingly."
  • "I am not the one who is paying for it, but based on what I know, it is not very expensive. It has a good price."
  • "We pay monthly for the use of the solution."
  • "Acronis offers a 30-day free trial of the product."
  • "It's a subscription license with free trial licenses."
  • More Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Our usage depends on the number of licenses we have. On the cloud, it's a pay-to-use kind of model which suits our needs well. Once we have the Cloud Manager installed, the licensing process is okay, regardless of whether we're running backups in the cloud or on-premises. Sometimes, we have to restrict the number of users as per the contractual agreement and in this case we simply cut down on the licensing."
  • "Cost could be lower."
  • "NetApp Cloud Backup has a subscription-based model and it is paid annually."
