Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution.""The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup Cloud is the ease of management.""We find the product to be very scalable.""One of my favorite features of the Acronis backup product is the ability to replicate the backups. Backup data can be replicated to a second, third, or even fourth data source.""The disaster recovery feature.""I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT.""The solution has helped us maintain the backups, compliance, and integrity of the data residing on the servers and endpoints.""The platform's most valuable features include its backup functionality, particularly the snapshot and image backup capabilities."

"The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. The interface is also excellent.""The intuitive interface allows you to set up and perform backups and restores easily.""The ability to test the backups without having to manually mount the VHDs after restore allows us to check the integrity of the backups.""The product has many valuable features for handling backup needs, including replication, live migration, and incremental disaster recovery.""This solution is stable.""Reverse Delta is Altaro proprietary backup deduplication technology. With Reverse Delta, the latest version of a file is always made available in its entirety, not as a delta file.""VM backup and the item level recovery are the most valuable features.""We use the latest feature in Altaro called CDP (Continuous Data Protection) to back up our VMs as often as every five minutes. It allows us to make sure no data is accidentally deleted or overwritten."

Cons
"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it.""The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved.""I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The tool needs to have better protection. The tool should be also able to take backups while users are offline and upload to the cloud whenever the internet connection is restored or if there is a good bandwidth.""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.""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.""Technical support needs improvement. They are too slow to respond, and when it comes to backups, it's critical to deal with issues quickly.""The solution could improve by being more user-friendly.""​For you to actually see the full logs, you have to use additional tools or even contact support so they can pull them with own tools."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud Cons →

"The cloud backup and VMware support (now available in the latest releases), could do with some improvement.""Backup speed and comparisons between versions used to be slow on big VMs but that was improved greatly later on.""To improve Altaro, I would like to see the ability to choose more than one backup location at a time.""It would be nice to see a feature that backs up the host so that, in case of a server failure, an entire server could be restored all at once.""Stability.""It would be nice to be able to recover the items to their original location.""Migrating the physical through a backup and restore to a virtual environment would be very helpful.""The application could include a feature to install a set size of data, such as the ability to store a single application with all its registry information for easy transfer."
