Seamless integration supports small teams with existing skills
The most valuable feature we've found with Veritas CloudPoint so far is the lack of a learning curve because the team was already familiar with all of the consoles and how to build policies. As they started to use it in Azure, they were able to continue doing things as they were used to doing them rather than having to learn a new tool. The efficiency gain we've experienced is that we were able to start deploying backup policies to Azure without having to learn a new tool, even though there are arguments about overhead and granularity if one uses native Azure backup tools compared to Veritas CloudPoint.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The user interface is the most valuable feature for me because I can manage backups and teams in one console."
"Acronis has carved out a really good name for themselves and they're a trusted backup software system, and it's mainly from reliability."
"Data protection and ransomware protection are the most valuable features of the solution."
"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."
"Disaster recovery is good."
"You can backup whatever you want, anything from your mobile phone to your OneDrive."
"The management, backup, and recovery features are all very good."
"Due to the licensing and deployment, it's scalable and flexible."
"The initial setup is very easy and quite straightforward."
"The most valuable features are the indexing, the file-level restore, and the replications between regions."
"The product is good for volume-level backups."
"I would rate Veritas CloudPoint a ten because it's done everything it says it'll do, and we've really not had many problems with it."
 

Cons

"Technically, the product is good, but the pricing and technical support are not ideal."
"Not many people know about this product, so they may need to concentrate more on marketing."
"What's lacking in Acronis Backup Cloud is a unified dashboard or console that lets you see the backup status of all clients."
"The bad point is always customer support and partner support, which Acronis has never changed."
"We'd like to see more DLP, data loss prevention."
"Advanced backup is an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required."
"The solution should increase its security features."
"While we use the product to perform daily backups, restoring them from the cloud server often takes a significant amount of time."
"The product needs to improve its file-level or granular-level backups."
"I don't care for the pricing or capacity license model from Veritas CloudPoint because there are cases where we back up the same data multiple times, yet we still owe from a capacity standpoint based on how much data is managed in our backups."
"They are niche with the work that they do, but they should have more integration with NetBackup and the reporting is something they should be working towards improving."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
