Featured Reviews

Mohamed Naeem - PeerSpot reviewer
Has ensured reliable data protection and quick recovery across various industries
The features of Acronis Cyber Protect that I find most useful for my customers are the Vault, data protection, and the ability to protect and access data anytime with the Vault feature. The AI-based antimalware feature in Acronis Cyber Protect is very effective in preventing cyber threats. AI is a good asset in protecting cybersecurity because it provides inception into threats and how to react with them before securing. It is very important and a great asset as a feature. The biggest benefit of Acronis Cyber Protect for my customers is that it is a great asset to protect business data and ensure data is in a secure Vault. Users can gain access to their data anytime. My future work will require mobility, so cloud-based access to data will be very beneficial.

Efficient file restoration with rapid incremental backups and potential for better reporting
I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data. Also, the reports we can generate have limited features. There is a limitation in the advanced reporting features, such as understanding how many files are in the backup, which users are actively using it, and how many files have been backed up properly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the extra protection, especially for the backup."
"​I have everything I need in the backup or in the partition. ​"
"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"I have not used other backup solutions to compare how well the features work but I have found Acronis Backup to be user-friendly, overall easy to use, and performance is good."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"For me, the tool proved most valuable in scenarios where it offered easy setup, fast backups, and recognition of SQL logs on virtual machines."
"Their response is quite efficient."
"The setup is very easy."
"The centralized management console in this solution and AI-driven analytics are good features."
"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."
"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."
 

Cons

"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"It would be better if they made it easier to obtain images for laptops and desktops. It isn't easy right now to have many different types of desktop computers. This is because Microsoft is changing a lot of things in Windows 10."
"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 solution could use a single sign-on integration that can default to the admin dashboard. Right now, it's only username and password. If you had had an additional two-factor authentication, this would be beneficial for me."
"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."
"For smaller companies it's a little more challenging to maintain."
"There are times when the backups are slow. A faster backup would be better."
"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"We pay a yearly subscription fee and the pricing is reasonable."
"If the solution was less expensive it would be better."
"The tool's subscription costs are monthly. The product's pricing is fair."
"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."
"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."
"The cost of updates is less than $100 USD yearly."
