Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Zerto, Commvault and others in Backup and Recovery."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."
"It's always stable. It's very good, useful, and user-friendly."
"This is a perfect option for an SMB."
"I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. "
"All the necessary features required to set up a proper backup are already present in Acronis Backup."
"The interface is easy to use. They keep on adding new features. Acronis recently added multi-platform support."
"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."
"Acronis is a flexible solution. It can back up workstations, endpoints, and even your virtual environments and cloud-based environments. So, we can do the backup of the whole gamut of products."
"The user interface is good."
"The only thing I really like about it is that you can deploy it from Backup and Replication onto a virtual Linux machine."
"What I find most valuable about this solution, is that the user experience is very simple."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It's not complicated. It takes around half an hour to implement, but it depends on the performance of the server that you are installing the backup software on."
"What I found most valuable in Veeam Agent for Linux is that it can unify machines and even simplify management."
"The solution is very user-friendly and has an easy to use interface. We can manage it easily. It allows for a simple backup."
"It's most compatible with VMware. It can restore single files instead of having to restore the whole machine, once again leading to savings for the company."
"The technical support is good."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"The dashboards for digital operations can be improved."
"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"The licensing approach becomes intricate when dealing with SharePoint."
"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."
"I needed tech support to straighten out an issue with cloud backup. I have troubleshooting to do with failed backups."
"I have no suggestions for improvements as I have only used the product for a month and have yet to really discover all of its aspects."
"It would be much better if more applications were supported on the Linux side. For example, their agent for Windows not only can back up the Windows machine, but it can also back up Active Directory for granular restore, SQL servers, Exchange, Oracle, SharePoint, etc. When it comes to Linux, only Oracle databases are supported. There are workarounds, though."
"I would like to be able to install Veeam directly to Linux instead of having to go through a Windows server."
"More Linux systems should be made compatible with the solution."
"One problem in Veeam Agent for Linux is that you can't use your license for all your machines because you don't have a virtual machine, so if you're going to add machines and scale, you'd need to pay extra."
"The solution is pretty stable right now, however, we believe that the solution could be made to be even more stable."
"We are currently waiting for the continuous backup process."
"The pricing could be lowered if possible."
"It's scalable, but it's not scalable on every platform."
