Stavros Samiotis - PeerSpot reviewer
Restores files accidentally deleted by developers and efficiently blocked a lot of attacks against our servers
The backup, the vulnerability assessment, and the anti-malware capabilities have been most impactful for data protection. Acronis approaches cybersecurity holistically, focusing on five key pillars: * Protection * Detection * Response * Recovery * Forensics It covers the need to block threats, investigate incidents, and ensure disaster recovery. This approach aligns well with current cybersecurity trends, including backups and deploying Malware Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems alongside Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) systems. While it doesn't yet include features like password management or security awareness training for end-users, Acronis has announced plans to integrate those in upcoming updates.
Thushara Bandara - PeerSpot reviewer
Ensures data protection and supports SAP consistency while reducing costs
Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering. It serves as a reliable solution for backup and reporting capabilities about the health of the backups. Even though I am not utilizing all tools and options, it meets my comprehensive requirements and allows backup of emails as well, making it a versatile tool.

Pros

"The user interface is the most valuable feature for me because I can manage backups and teams in one console."
"The customer service and support are really good."
"It is a scalable solution."
"The solution has helped us maintain the backups, compliance, and integrity of the data residing on the servers and endpoints."
"The ease of implementation is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud provides unlimited backup features for Office 365 accounts."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering."
"I recommend it to other companies due to its reliable solutions, significant cost reductions, and comprehensive functionality."
"Dealing with cloud solutions is simple and removes many headaches from troubleshooting and implementing the solution."
"I find Veeam to be a good tool for backing up Office 365 and virtual machine environments."
"The application backup is excellent, and using Veeam for backing up Kubernetes environments is a valuable tool."
"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud’s most valuable feature is data backup and replication."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by being more user-friendly."
"Advanced backup is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"We'd like to see more DLP, data loss prevention."
"We'd like to see more integration for Nutanix, Oracle, et cetera."
"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."
"It will be good if Acronis can provide more documentation and videos describing how to do different things. Their documentation is good, but it is without examples. They don't have lots of videos. They should put more videos on YouTube to show how to set up certain things, how to restore, and how to back up. They should provide step-by-step documentation and videos for specific scenarios. I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it. If the command line is improved, it will take the product to the next level. It would be great if it can back up data from storage so that people are able to back up old data. Such a feature will make it an enterprise solution for a full backup."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"The agent stability needs improvement."
"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."
"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."

"Some of the prerequisites for Veeam are challenging."
