We performed a comparison between Acronis Backup and Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud based on our users’ reviews in five categories. After reading all of the collected data, you can find our conclusion below.
Comparison Results: Because Acronis Backup offers significantly less functionality, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud ultimately wins out in this comparison.
"It is a very stable solution."
"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."
"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"I have not used other backup solutions to compare how well the features work but I have found Acronis Backup to be user-friendly, overall easy to use, and performance is good."
"The most valuable feature is its consistency."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"The most valuable feature is the extra protection, especially for the backup."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"It is a scalable solution."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud has very easy backup and recovery capabilities."
"Once you deploy, it's very easy to manage. It took us about an hour to deploy."
"The ease of implementation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"We like the backup functionality."
"The management, backup, and recovery features are all very good."
"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 integration with multiple modules in the console and the backup and recovery features are very good."
"One improvement that could be made is adding the option to download files in a PST format when doing a 365 or Google Cloud to cloud backup."
"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."
"The support and documentation must be improved."
"The reporting can be improved."
"On the cloud side, security could always be better."
"The tool's dashboard for daily operations is useful, but I find that it could benefit from enhancements, particularly in terms of reporting. While exporting reports, the format is not fancy as it appears on the dashboard. The exported files are typically in Excel CSV or PDF format."
"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"The solution should increase its security features."
"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"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."
"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."
"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"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."
"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."
