We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect and MSP360 Backup based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Backup and Recovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is the fact that you can archive backups quite easily and minimize the amount of space you're using."
"The ability to clone backups."
"In my opinion, it's the best product for end-users and PCs."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"It's a good solution that's very easy to use. Acronis has two valuable features. The first one is creating images, and the other is starting virtual machines in the cloud so the client can work immediately."
"The main reason we went with Acronis Cyber Protect is because it provides a virtual machine backup feature."
"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."
"It is a very stable solution."
"The solution is simple to use and easy to configure."
"It has allowed me to implement a cost effective, highly configurable solution."
"I was mainly concerned with cloud backups, OneDrive backups, consumer OneDrive, business OneDrive, Google backups, and SharePoint backups. The solution did a good job of the backup."
"The most valuable feature of MSP360 Backup is its reliability."
"The best feature is that it's very user-friendly to do scheduled backups and version maintenance."
"MSP360 Backup's most valuable feature is its backup interface."
"The UI is pretty good. It's very simple. That is one thing that we like about this. It's very user-friendly."
"Technical support is very good."
"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."
"Acronis Backup can improve the latency when the file size is larger, we have had issues. Additionally, they could allow more flexibility when searching for information and I cannot download the CBIS backup copy information which could be made easier."
"It would be nice if it could support more types of storage: EMC, HPE, Veeam, etc."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side."
"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."
"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."
"Acronis Backup has a straightforward initial setup process and an easy-to-use interface. However, a potential issue for Acronis partners is that registered partners do not have access to marketing materials, which can make it difficult for them to reach mass markets and sell the product. This could be improved by allowing registered partners to access marketing materials and tools, such as email templates, that would help them to promote Acronis Backup effectively."
"Using the solution incurs additional charges for the device storage and backup which are not included in the service."
"The solution's pricing is very high."
"The interface feels like it is targeted for end users who typically are looking for an all-in-one integrated push button solution. It would be better if the interface had a beginner mode and an expert mode."
"The graphics are looking a bit old and should be updated."
"They can add some production backup capabilities and the ability to do single instance back up. At the moment, it doesn't do deduplication on the standard backup. So, the issue is backing up PSG files for customers who have limited bandwidth. The other issue is that I don't like the implementation of the SQL backup. We do use SQL ourselves using a PowerShell script with the VDA tools as a module. That's how we back up. The rotation feature would be nice to have, but I know that they've got it on their dashboard or on their list to look at. They can also do a few tweaks to the dashboard. I would like the reporting capabilities on the portal to be much more granular. Normally, I export it to a text file, and then I run it through a pivot table in order to look at it from a cost-recovery point of view and to see when the backup last ran and if it was successful when it ran two or three days ago. Such a feature would work really well for my market. They can also add a cost-effective backup for Android and Apple cellphones. I've had one or two customers who were looking for this feature. I haven't found this functionality at the moment. I've been looking for a product that does that."
"We could basically use just a more concise visual dashboard reporting on the status of the various machines."
"The solution needs a better graphical user interface. It's a graphical user interface that is very old-school right now. They could give it a little more modern feel."
"There are some things that we don't like about it. That is why I was exploring alternatives in a hyper-scale environment. That is why I was checking IT Central Station."
