Effective data loss prevention and good for small and medium enterprises
We are almost ready to acquire ManageEngine Endpoint DLP Plus. We have a lot of tools. We currently use Acronis Cyber Protect and are looking at zero trust file transfer tools. We have hands-on experience with some tools and are continuously upgrading our infrastructure and security tools. We started with Acronis. I think we had McAfee before I joined, and then we switched to Acronis. We are okay with it. Price and features were the main reason you decided to go with Acronis. It is good value for the money.

Using the app is straightforward with easy buttons to click on.
Customer Service: We didn't contact their customer service at any point because the backup and recovery process is pretty straightforward. But they have a customer support email and phone just in case. Technical Support: CloudAlly can be used by a non-techie person because it's simple. We didn't contact the technical support, but it's available for any user who may encounter a problem.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product offers a user-friendly dashboard and a seamless backup process"
"I have experience with the technical team of the product, and I feel that they offer good support."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"The integration with multiple modules in the console and the backup and recovery features are very good."
"We turn on the solution and it works well for backing up our data, it is easy to use."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"Stability is a ten. No issues, no performance drops, and no crashes."
"One of the best benefits of using Acronis is that it also provides data security along with the backup of data. It checks everything, and that's the main benefit of using Acronis"
"The user-friendly interface of CloudAlly significantly enhances data protection."
 

Cons

"The solution is expensive."
"Acronis Backup Cloud can improve by having fewer updates and patches to the solution. Additionally, should improve the functions that already exist in the solution rather than add new ones."
"The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved."
"While we use the product to perform daily backups, restoring them from the cloud server often takes a significant amount of time."

"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."

"CloudAlly can improve in the areas of reporting, especially regarding backup statistics and backup failures presented in pie graphs and charts."
