Vinoth Thangavelu - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Boomchi Kumar - PeerSpot reviewer
Used for cloud databases and overall cyber resiliency
The solution can be installed everywhere. Nowadays, it is deployed on the public cloud. If it's a small-sized environment, it takes two to three hours to configure everything. On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution's initial setup ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I have found many of the backup options valuable such as logging the event backup and the ability to run an analysis of the backup before you start for problems."
"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"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."
"Disaster recovery is good."
"The tool's backup and cybersecurity features are good. I haven't had any complaints from any users. Everybody likes the XDR and EDR that it provides. The solution is simple and easy to use."
"The most valuable features are the automated backup, and that you are able to manage all of your devices centrally."
"The product offers very easy configuration capabilities."
"The disaster recovery feature."
"The most valuable feature is the ease of use for backing up VMs."
"We use the solution as a backup for our virtual environment and SQL databases."
"In terms of stability, the product is good."
"Even though the data is already in the cloud, it's an AWS, so by accessing the on-prem appliance you can still search because it is indexed from that appliance."
"The solution is easy to install; our team just has to put together the plan, give it to IT and let them handle it. Other solutions are quite complex, but this is much simpler."
"Rubrik Go is very simple to use."
"The solution's most valuable feature is Sensitive Data Discovery."
"The automation capabilities streamline our operations significantly."
 

Cons

"Slow response from technical support."
"We'd like to see more DLP, data loss prevention."
"It could be a little more user-friendly. The technical support also should be improved."
"​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."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"There is more room for improvement in the training."
"Some proactive alerts or emails are not currently available."
"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."
"If you were to compare it to, say, EMC, the availability of the documentation, training programs, and end-user education aren't as good. Rubrik could improve this."
"The AWS backups could be improved."
"You should be able to add more workloads to Rubrik Go."
"Being a modern backup solution, Rubrik should have an option to back up a Kubernetes cluster."
"There have been occasional issues with the user interface needing certain necessary information, requiring us to contact support for clarification."
"The solution’s pricing could be reduced."
"If you're going for Rubrik, you are not opting for the tape library because Rubrik doesn't have the fiber cable connected to the tape library."
"Rubrik Go's security visibility could be improved."
