We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud and NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Cloud Backup solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The disaster recovery feature."
"The most valuable feature is disaster recovery."
"The platform's most valuable features include its backup functionality, particularly the snapshot and image backup capabilities."
"What I like best about Acronis Backup Cloud is the active protection feature that helps you protect your workload from ransomware attacks."
"We find the product to be very scalable."
"The product is stable and has good performance. The product is scalable The solution is easy to set up."
"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"The most valuable features are tiering to S3 and being able to turn it on and off, based on a schedule."
"This solution has made everything easier to do."
"Its functionality and technical support are adequate to help prevent failure due to errors."
"There is unified storage, which provides flexibility. It is set up perfectly for performance and provisioning. We are able to monitor everything using a separate application. It provides error and critical warnings that allow us to take immediate action through ONTAP. We are able to manage everything, log a case, and follow up with the support team, who can fix it. That is how it is unified."
"It makes sure we have control of the data and that we know what it's being used for. The main thing for us is that we need to know what applications are consuming it and responsible for it. The solution helps us do that."
"The FlexClones make all the management easier for us."
"They have very good support team who is very helpful. They will help you with every aspect of getting the deployment done."
"ONTAP is great for helping you migrate on-premise workflows to cloud environments."
"There is more room for improvement in the training."
"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"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."
"The agent stability needs improvement."
"The reporting could be improved. I would like to see some enhancements in that regard."
"The platform's interface could be user-friendly."
"Something we would like to see is the ability to better manage the setup and tie it to our configuration management database. We manage our whole IT infrastructure out of that database."
"The DR has room for improvement. For example, we now have NetApp in Western Europe and we would like to back up the information to another region. It's impossible. We need to bring up an additional NetApp in that other region and create a Cloud Manager automation to copy the data... I would prefer it to be a more integrated solution like it was in the NetApp solution about a year ago. I would like to see something like AltaVault but in the cloud."
"Some of the licensing is a little kludgy. We just created an HA environment in Azure and their licensing for SVMs per node is a little kludgy. They're working on it right now."
"Scale-up and scale-out could be improved. It would be interesting to have multiple HA pairs on one cluster, for example, or to increase the single instances more, from a performance perspective. It would be good to get more performance out of a single HA pair."
"We want to be able to add more than six disks in aggregate, but there is a limit of the number of disks in aggregate. In GCP, they provide less by limiting the sixth disk in aggregate. In Azure, the same solution provides 12 disks in an aggregate versus GCP where it is just half that amount. They should bump up the disk in aggregate requirement so we don't have to migrate the aggregate from one to another when the capacities are full."
"NetApp Cloud Volumes ONTAP needs to have customizable pricing options such as 10 TB increments. They seem to have only two options: 10 TB or 250 TB."
"There is room for improvement with the capacity. There's a very hard limit to how many disks you can have and how much space you can have. That is something they should work to fix, because it's limiting. Right now, the limit is about 360 terabytes or 36 disks."
"I would like to see them improve the perspective of start and search in the panels. This would allow for better visualization of the contents that are captured in the tool."
