We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and Barracuda Intronis Backup 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."I would definitely say the backup and recovery. It used to be a separate module. It was a recovery part and it would literally duplicate the machine to bare bones."
"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."
"The performance has been fine so far."
"In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"In my opinion, it's the best product for end-users and PCs."
"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package."
"I have found the product's LiveBoot feature to be most valuable."
"The most valuable feature is unlimited data storage on the cloud. Even if the employee has left the company for a few years, the backup will still be maintained."
"The product is easy to install and use while doing what it is expected to do."
"The scalability of the product is fine."
"It is very reliable, so we don't have any issues with it. Our customers have never raised any issue with it. Basically, once you set it up and it is running, it is trouble-free. Our customers are happy. They just got a renewal for the subscription for the service."
"The configuration and the onboarding process are pretty good."
"The backup feature is most valuable. That's why we took it."
"Most important is its ease of use. You plug it in, follow the steps, and you have your backup file."
"The solution could improve by providing more database backup features and have better integration with many different types of databases. We cannot implement it in all of our infrastructures."
"I can't select a network location. I have to map a drive on the server, and then I have to select the mapped drive in order for it to put the backup out there."
"This is not a feature-rich solution."
"The solution could use a single sign-on integration that can default to the admin dashboard. Right now, it's only username and password. If you had had an additional two-factor authentication, this would be beneficial for me."
"If there was a wizard that would lead you down a road, when creating a backup, that would probably be better than having to go online or call somebody to actually do a backup. It's not intuitive..."
"A little bit more integration would be good. It should support broader platforms."
"It supports Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange, but it does not support Oracle databases or Postgres."
"I wish Acronis had a feature that would allow me to set an expiry date for customers when I send them Acronis, such as when I create a customer workload or gigabyte."
"Setting up Barracuda Backup is straightforward."
"It is not always stable."
"Barracuda works great for smaller network environments, which are not that complex. It is hardware-based with a Linux core, which you don't have access to, and a lot of stuff happens on the back-end. Even from a troubleshooting perspective, it is a bit challenging."
"Their technical support is not very good. You never know what they are doing and what is the issue. Customers need to know what is happening. This is our main concern and the only thing that can be improved in this solution. I would like to have more visibility about what is going on when something happens. I need to know what was done to solve the issue."
"The solution is pretty expensive. This is the usual customer complaint."
"The tool is not user-friendly. The solution should also improve its compatibility. It is also not license-based."
"Compared to Avamar and Data Domain (our other systems), the backup speed is slow."
"The solution needs fine-grained backup capabilities to service individual users. But this is a minor issue considering all that the product does."
