Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The best thing about it is that we can back up pretty much everything we want to. We don't have to have multiple solutions. It can back up any physical or virtual server, including servers in Azure. It can back up SharePoint, OneDrive, and G Suite. Everything we need to back up can be backed up, and that's why we like it.""The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use.""The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly.""It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly.""The setup is very easy.""Some of the most valuable features are recovery, protection against malware, and software management. I am happy with the dashboards and user interface.""It is a very fast and reliable backup, which requires less management and restores quickly.​""In terms of system-critical support, Acronis' technical support does really well. I would give them an eight out of ten for that."

"The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup.""The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent.""Offers good recovery quickly.""The installation was straightforward.""With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements.""You can back up the whole image.""The tool helps automate system recovery.

Cons
"In some cases, at the time of reinstallation, some disasters happen. For the licensing on the computer the name of the computer and domain, everything is removed from the registry level. Then we have to install the Acronis from the start for it to work properly. Otherwise, the Acronis software will cause a lot of trouble at the time of reinstallation. That's where they need to improve the product. In the case people want to install the same software with the same hardware, it should not stop me.""The pricing could be improved.""The initial setup was complex. We had to deploy it through an external consultant team.""The dashboards for digital operations can be improved.""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.""The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors.""They've got an agent to back up Microsoft SQL, to our Office 365, but there is not an agent to back up my SQL databases.""If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cons →

"Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot.""It needs an easier interface.""The reliability is sometimes lacking.""The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement.""Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement.""We faced issues with recovery and restoration.""The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable."
