Pros
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory.""Acronis has a very rich functionality.""The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are instant restore, antivirus, and ransomware protection. Additionally, the documentation is good.""For local backups, it has options to back up almost any storage. The back can be either a shared folder or anything you want, it's pretty flexible.""The licensing model is very good.""The most valuable feature is its ability to back up and recover our production environment from ransomware.""The most valuable feature is that you can do a bare-metal restore even with dissimilar hardware.""Stability is always good. I have used Acronis for 10 years now, if not more. I have never had a problem with availability, etc."

Cons
"When I first started using Acronis, I found it a little bit confusing when it came to the configuration.""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...""We have issues with the SQL databases which are a little shaky.""There are some limitations to the backup.""It supports Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange, but it does not support Oracle databases or Postgres.""On the cloud side, security could always be better.""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.""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."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cons →

"It needs an easier interface.""We faced issues with recovery and restoration.""The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot.""The pricing could be cheaper.""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.""The reliability is sometimes lacking."
