Experience with offsite backup enhances data integrity and reduces on-premise reliance
One of the features of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection that customers are looking for is immutability. This is the most important feature. With the cloud, Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is actually in the cloud, which means they have unlimited space to do their backups. They can expand on a need-to-need basis. The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore. Currently, it's automated so you just do a click. You select the feature in a graphical interface, making it easy to use even for a newbie.

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."
"Technically, the solution is good, but we also have to look at the ecosystem, the pricing policy, and such things."
"The update process is quite efficient. They send admin alerts one day in advance when updating data centers or products."
"We can use the tool to set up an automated backup from our on-premises server directly to the cloud."
"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."
"What I like best about Acronis Backup Cloud is the active protection feature that helps you protect your workload from ransomware attacks."
"The product offers a user-friendly dashboard and a seamless backup process"
"The product offers very easy configuration capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is that it is simple to use."
"The solution is stable; I haven't experienced any bugs or glitches on it."
"We're comfortable using this kind of technology. It's user-friendly."
"It excels in performance and delivery but they are quiet on the market."
"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."
"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources."
"It offers general business continuity and disaster recovery for the industry."
"What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on and has compatible features."
 

Cons

"There are some compatibility issues that could be improved."
"We'd like to see more integration for Nutanix, Oracle, et cetera."
"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 Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"Some proactive alerts or emails are not currently available."
"The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved."
"We are forced to purchase space in Acronis' private cloud, which is expensive."
"The bad point is always customer support and partner support, which Acronis has never changed."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The go-between is a Veritas partner, so the customer support was not that good. The solution is fine except when there is a purchasing crisis where you have to remake the ecosystem. It causes a lot of issues. The support was a problem, but we're okay with it as long as we have someone to communicate with."
"Licensing has been a struggle. It went from bronze, silver to gold. Licensing needs more sophistication. It has features that are sold as separate add-ons."
"Licensing has been a struggle."
"The program is quite expensive and I am not impressed by their technical support."
"Currently, it isn't possible to use anything other than Veritas cloud to back up to. I think today it's important to cover the three major cloud provider: GCP, Azure and AWS."
"Other people will prefer this solution because they're used to it. However, from my point of view, you have more breaks, more failures on it than you will with Commvault."
"The solution does lack a lot of features, and we're considering switching."
