Encounter challenges in troubleshooting but experience efficient customer support
The application itself is a bit bloated. Although it has a lot of features when it comes to troubleshooting, we don't basically know where to start even though we do give them the log files to troubleshoot they don't give us a proper solution set. So I would say because it's bloated, it's a bit more difficult to troubleshoot where you get certain errors. From my side, on the POC I didn't really need to do much. It's only after we discovered there was a compatibility issue with the application that the client was running that we actually had to do a lot of log file shipping to Acronis themselves and getting solutions because of other problems. So on a day-to-day basis, you don't even maintain it, you just forget about it. You get alerts, but usually in between. It's quite easy to manage. To be honest with you, since I didn't really test that option of Acronis Cyber Protect, it's supposed to make everything feasible and easy to manage but I never got the option of testing it out, so I cannot really say at this stage.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The administration is pretty flexible in terms of defining a multi-tenant type of setup."
"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."
"The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use."
"It is a very stable solution."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"It has simple buying options and deployments. You can buy on-cloud, on-premises, or hybrid solutions. Acronis Backup is very easy to deploy. It also does not consume much hardware. The administrator's tasks are very simple. It is very user friendly, and it also has good security features with low-level encryption and data encryption."
"The tool’s licensing and pricing are economical for SMB customers."
"One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"It has helped us to provide comprehensive data protection with high recovery rates and a malware scanning feature."
"The solution has been very stable."
 

Cons

"The support takes too much time to respond to callbacks. Calls are often scheduled around four to five PM and tend to occur with a two-hour delay each time."
"We needed to have help from the vendor for implementation. The vendor used two personnel. We have system administrators and they do the server backups themself."
"It does not delete locked files."
"Acronis Backup can improve the latency when the file size is larger, we have had issues. Additionally, they could allow more flexibility when searching for information and I cannot download the CBIS backup copy information which could be made easier."
"This is not a feature-rich solution."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"The biggest problem that we have is when the antivirus is installed, the whole machine runs very slowly and some of the machines hang."
"The pricing could be improved."
"They should improve the malware scanning capabilities, extending it to protect cloud application data."
"The management could be a bit better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is a perpetual license. The cost is an area for improvement."
"I find the pricing structure satisfactory, it is around $25 per year."
"I think that the prices of the product go up every year. If one is extremely expensive and ten is absolutely cheap, I rate the product price as six."
"When it comes to elements like cost, I think it is the only backup solution which has perpetual licenses, whereby you buy the license once and for all."
"This is an affordable product and fits within our customers' budgets."
"Its price is quite friendly on the pocket. You need to pay the licensing cost upfront, and then the support charges are on an annual basis."
"The current subscription model of Acronis Backup compared to other backup solutions is not costly."
"The tool is cheap compared to other products."
"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
