Encounter challenges in troubleshooting but experience efficient customer support

The application itself is a bit bloated. Although it has a lot of features when it comes to troubleshooting, we don't basically know where to start even though we do give them the log files to troubleshoot they don't give us a proper solution set. So I would say because it's bloated, it's a bit more difficult to troubleshoot where you get certain errors. From my side, on the POC I didn't really need to do much. It's only after we discovered there was a compatibility issue with the application that the client was running that we actually had to do a lot of log file shipping to Acronis themselves and getting solutions because of other problems. So on a day-to-day basis, you don't even maintain it, you just forget about it. You get alerts, but usually in between. It's quite easy to manage. To be honest with you, since I didn't really test that option of Acronis Cyber Protect, it's supposed to make everything feasible and easy to manage but I never got the option of testing it out, so I cannot really say at this stage.

Great backup that's user-friendly and very reliable

The initial setup is very straightforward. It is easy. There are no great difficulties when setting up the solution. Even the configuration is simple. The deployment itself takes only a couple of days. It only takes one person to install it. You do not need a big team. We had an engineer manage it. The product does not require any maintenance.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"The tool is user-friendly."

"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."

"The ability to clone backups."

"The stability of Acronis Cyber Protect is very high."

"Some of the most valuable features are recovery, protection against malware, and software management. I am happy with the dashboards and user interface."

"Universal Restore is valuable to us."

"The solution is exceptional for desktop backup."

"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pros

"The most valuable feature is that it is very elastic. It's adaptable because it's very flexible and modular."

"In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution."

"The most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect are its ease of use and the portal is very useful."

"the interface is the most valuable feature and for the client it's security."

"The best part about this solution is that it just works."

"Replication without network changes."

"The most valuable quality of Veeam Cloud Connect is its reliability."

"The administration and management integrate with multiple solutions, not just with one or two environments, even if they're not VMware products."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] pros

Cons

"In the span of six months, maintenance is done at least twice and you are told that it is coming up, with apologies for the inconvenience. It's a distraction, and it interferes with the backup schedule."

"This is not a feature-rich solution."

"When I first started using Acronis, I found it a little bit confusing when it came to the configuration."

"On the cloud side, security could always be better."

"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."

"The replication part and failover are areas in which improvements are required."

"Currently, there is no option to use the tape drives again as a backup repository for the cloud deployment."

"The support takes too much time to respond to callbacks. Calls are often scheduled around four to five PM and tend to occur with a two-hour delay each time."

More Acronis Cyber Protect cons

"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."

"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."

"There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features."

"Some of the features I'd like added to the solution would be coming up in version 12, so the only area for improvement I saw in Veeam Cloud Connect was the need to have more support for object storage."

"The security of encrypted data could be better."

"It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is. For instance, in the enterprise version, we can only use one accelerator with the cloud provider. It means if I have my Cloud Connect, I cannot connect another site of mine with another cloud connect and use an accelerator of Veeam. They should change this."

"The solution could improve the stability."

"Doesn't back-up from KVM."

More Veeam Cloud Connect [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is expensive and could be reduced a little."

"The pricing is reasonable. However, it depends on the storage that you use. It would be great to have a package that we can use up to a certain size of the backup, this would allow us to know what the price is going to be up to that capacity."

"There is a license required to use this solution and it is inexpensive. However, it is an old license."

"I would rate the solution’s pricing an eight out of ten. The tool’s subscription is yearly."

"This is an affordable product and fits within our customers' budgets."

"We pay a yearly subscription fee and the pricing is reasonable."

"Acronis Cyber Protect's pricing is reasonable."

"It is very cost-effective for the SMB segment, especially for start-ups and smaller environments. It is cost-effective for on-premises and on-cloud deployments in such environments."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pricing and cost advice

"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."

"The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."

"The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."

"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."

"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."

"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."

"I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."

"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
