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.
Charles Daou - PeerSpot reviewer
Great backup that's user-friendly and very reliable
The initial setup is very straightforward. It is easy. There are no great difficulties when setting up the solution. Even the configuration is simple. The deployment itself takes only a couple of days. It only takes one person to install it. You do not need a big team. We had an engineer manage it. The product does not require any maintenance.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The agent, which is installed on the system, can do Quality of Service."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"It is a scalable solution."
"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."
"We like the backup functionality."
"The customer service and support are really good."
"We can block certain ports and USB ports for data loss prevention."
"The management, backup, and recovery features are all very good."
"the interface is the most valuable feature and for the client it's security."
"The solution is already far more advanced than our customers require. It offers advanced scripting and automation pre-testing to support the custom library and custom tasks."
"One of the most valuable features of Veeam Cloud Connect is it does not require the use of an extremely fast internet connection for it to work. The backup process is automated which is great."
"I've found flexibility to the most valuable feature. I also like that it's scalable and that the stability is okay."
"The best part about this solution is that it just works."
"It hasn't given us any issues so far."
"The deployment is quite simple. Users are generally happy because of the familiarity they have with the features. The solution offers good transparency for the end-user."
"A really good feature is backing up the emails of the company."
 

Cons

"The technical support could be improved. When you create a ticket, the responsiveness you'd expect is lacking."
"While we use the product to perform daily backups, restoring them from the cloud server often takes a significant amount of time."
"There could be some changes done to the action page to simplify it."
"In the solution, you have the customization option for reports but it is limited and should allow more customizations in terms of how long or when you can do the reports."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud needs to be more flexible with its pricing."
"We've had some troubles with the data center."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"They should integrate the solution with Storage Area Network(SAN)."
"There are some issues with the cloud providers for Veeam Cloud Connect that do not support all the features."
"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."
"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."
"The solution could improve the stability."
"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication."
"Doesn't back-up from KVM."
"We encountered some issues with stability at the beginning."
"The bandwidth optimization needs to be improved and have better efficiency so that you send fewer amounts of data from one site to the other."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"When we tested the scenario for over 20 employees, the cost was much lower than the other solutions in the market."
"The solution is a bit expensive for medium-sized companies."
"With the price, there is a certain limitation on terabytes but no limits on how many servers or how many services you can run."
"The solution is moderately priced."
"It's relatively cheap, but you see the benefits more at a higher volume."
"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten. You don't have to pay any additional costs."
"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."
"The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
