Cons

"The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved."

"Slow response from technical support."
"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"Its mailbox migration feature needs improvement."
"We've had some troubles with the data center."
"There is more room for improvement in the training."
"Acronis may claim it's due to security reasons, but I believe there should be an option to delete specific files from old backups stored on the Acronis Cloud. Currently, there is no such feature, and I strongly feel the need for a deletion option for erroneous backups."

"Improvement is needed in the graphical web administration tool."
