Reliable backups have protected our manufacturing data and now provide confident disaster recovery
Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office is used to take care of the data for our manufacturing company and its users. I work with CrowdStrike only for antivirus. We have antivirus products, but not as a main solution. The antiviruses we are using are from another vendor. For antiviruses, we are using Falcon CrowdStrike. My main experience is with CrowdStrike antivirus and Palo Alto firewall. These are the two things for security, and we are exploring other software solutions that will be beneficial for us. I track two levels of ransomware protection: one from Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office and one from CrowdStrike. I do not work with Cortex cloud by Palo Alto; I have the hardware on-premise at my location. I do not work with WildFire, Prisma Access, or Prisma SD-WAN, but I will be looking forward to it. This is the only firewall I am using, but very soon, I will be opting for another Palo Alto firewall of the same model that will be working on high availability. I am not knowledgeable about the CN-Series firewall; I can only talk about the one I have. We have acquired one particular brand, a company called Pernod Ricard, which manufactures products like Chivas Regal whisky and Beefeater. Endpoint Detection and Response is something we will explore after a certain period of time and we are looking for it very soon. I would rate this review an overall eight out of ten.

Has improved data reliability while requiring better pricing and localized support
The most valuable features of Arcserve OneXafe are improving persistent data, which I believe is very important. I use other products too, not only Arcserve OneXafe; we use TrueNAS as well. I have utilized Arcserve OneXafe's data deduplication feature. It helps my storage efficiency significantly. The product satisfaction with this product helps with storage efficiency. Regarding Arcserve OneXafe's immutable object storage helping against ransomware, the call was not clear, and I had difficulty listening to what was discussed. Arcserve OneXafe improves precision of data. I have used Arcserve OneXafe's continuous data protection. This is beneficial for operational continuity because we use it constantly. I have no objections to Arcserve OneXafe technology; I think that is very good.
