Reliable image backups have protected our HMIs and simplified on‑premises recovery
We have not tried the vulnerability assessment feature yet because we have a different set of protocols for our cybersecurity. We conduct audits and plug the gaps as part of our security approach. We are not using AI with the anti-malware from Acronis; we are using it only for backup and recovery. On the backup and restoration side with Acronis Backup, some on-premises AI features which can detect anomalies may be something which would improve the product significantly. Otherwise, we are not very comfortable with cloud-based solutions at this time. We are looking for products which are entirely on-premises, so they remain within our control.

Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"True Image has a slew of enterprise and end-user features and the interface is both easy to use and simple to understand."
"Acronis Backup and Recovery with universal restore allowed me to get back online again."
"Our customers are impressed with the scalability and richness of the different functions."
"It allows us to backup our remote sites to a local NAS device, and allows for easy retrieval of data."
"For me, it's been very successful and very effective."
"Acronis Backup is easy to use."
"​I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. ​"
"As far as I'm concerned, it's rock solid and I'm very pleased with it and I will continue to sell it and support it."
"There are two primary improvements of the Asigra platform with the recent version 13.1 SP1: Virtualization: a tremendous variety of data protection solutions for virtual machines, and Cloud-2-Cloud for Office 365, Google, Amazon, etc., making this a full package of data protection platform."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"Asigra’s multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"It allows our backup engineers to build great relationships with customers as they know their data is being protected by best-in-class software."
"Flexibility really means a lot for us. Being able to address almost every client backup and recovery requirement means that we have a tremendous amount of confidence as do our partners that Blueshift is going to be able to deploy a solution quickly and efficiently."
"Once you have Asigra, you are set, it’s a rock solid platform that works every time."
"Asigra's client-less approach is one of the best in the industry."
"Virtual Disaster Recovery in version 13 is a game-changer, especially for VMWare shops."
 

Cons

"A little bit more integration would be good. It should support broader platforms."
"They can include something called a backup appliance. Although Acronis is a software-driven company, it would be good for customers to have some kind of backup appliance on top of a lightweight operating system. This will also reduce the cost. Currently, the customers have to buy the hardware in addition to the operating system, which increases the overhead in terms of procurement."
"I have no suggestions for improvements as I have only used the product for a month and have yet to really discover all of its aspects."
"Network based data backup and recovery is supported, however network recovery quite often crashes the application."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"Comparatively, depending on the setup, it can be costly."
"The product would be better if they offered more integration capabilities."
"I got a couple of backup errors and it didn't really give too much detail, but the program was still running on the computer that gave the errors."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"I think Asigra still needs to simplify their GUI."
"The setup and configuration of this product is quite complex."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"I think the product needs more diversity in Hyper-V."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"The management could be a bit better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"Our licenses come with a one-time yearly subscription fee."
"I would say that at the pricepoint that it's at, it's definitely worth the money."
"Acronis Cyber Protect's pricing is reasonable."
"We were on a perpetual license for Acronis Backup."
"There is a license required to use this solution and it is inexpensive. However, it is an old license."
"The price of the solution is expensive and could be reduced a little."
"You pay for what you use in the cloud. If you don't start the virtual machine in the cloud, you only pay for the information stored there. But when you start the virtual machine, another pricing model is activated."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
