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.

Central console has simplified multi-region deployments and now supports quick customer insights
Druva Data Security Cloud is used with AWS cloud and is public only, with AWS serving as the backend infrastructure. The customer never receives billing for AWS, as the customer receives billing from Druva only.From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud. This product is mature, and we do not need to hesitate about it, as it has wider acceptance in the market. AI-driven analytics in Druva Data Security Cloud help to optimize data security by providing correct suggestions and prioritizing action. Given the amount of data security products available and the sprawl of information and tickets that get raised with various concerns that come up, AI is definitely necessary to drill down.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"The most valuable feature is the extra protection, especially for the backup."
"In my opinion, it's the best product for end-users and PCs."
"Acronis has a very rich functionality."
"The solution is exceptional for desktop backup."
"For me, the tool proved most valuable in scenarios where it offered easy setup, fast backups, and recognition of SQL logs on virtual machines."
"One of the most valuable features of Acronis is its AnyData Engine which allows any device to connect to any other device for the purpose of data restoration."
"Acronis has many features, which are really very interesting, when it comes to data backup and recovery, especially disaster recovery (DR)."
"Over the past five years, I haven't experienced any issues or problems with Druva."
"The centralized management console in this solution and AI-driven analytics are good features."
"From my perspective, Druva Data Security Cloud is a mature product that uses AWS backup as a backend solution and is available on AWS Cloud."
"The most valuable feature of Druva is that it can detect changes in files or laptops and perform incremental backups."
 

Cons

"The solution needs to have better stability. I would like to improve the tool’s support through calls."
"If I could create a protected image backup on a computer partition that just would be just for the image backup; and only the program could access it to prevent viruses from getting into it. That would be very, very good."
"This is not a feature-rich solution."
"If we could have a mass deployment option using Acronis, that would be helpful."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"If there was a wizard that would lead you down a road, when creating a backup, that would probably be better than having to go online or call somebody to actually do a backup. It's not intuitive..."
"The product needs to have a simple DR process."
"I believe that the next release should be easier to configure as this one is difficult to configure even the easiest of tasks."
"They can improve their product quality for Salesforce as they don't have the capability to run that business without Technobind."
"I would rate Druva Data Security Cloud an eight on a scale from one to ten because there are better solutions available in the market in terms of security that give a better stack."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."
"I suggest improvements in the time it takes to restore data."

"Our licenses come with a one-time yearly subscription fee."
"The tool is cheap compared to other products."
"The price of the solution is expensive and could be reduced a little."

"It has already paid off itself in the first few months that we implemented it."
"We were on a perpetual license for Acronis Backup."
