We performed a comparison between Acronis Cyber Protect, KeyCloud Backup and Recovery, and Veeam Backup & Replication based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Cloud Backup."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."
"It works with different types of partitions or different OSs."
"One of the features I have found most valuable is the restore point - it gives us what we need at the time we need it. The important thing is that the backup for Acronis doesn't depend as much on the device."
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us."
"I can encrypt the data, I can make it send me an email if it fails. It lets me choose which files I want to ignore during backup."
"The solution has all the features I need and user friendly."
"Acronis Backup is valuable if your data is affected by ransomware, you are able to get it back."
"I like Acronis Cyber Protect's backup process and its management console is intuitive."
"The most important features is that it provides consistent cloud-based backup."
"I like Veeam a lot because it solves problems, is stable, and runs very well."
"The user interface is good and it is very easy to use."
"I like all the backup features in Veeam."
"The encryption password is used to protect the backup files. Even if someone gains access to the backup job or files, they won't be able to utilize them without the password."
"It has an intuitive interface, and it provides us with successful backups without needing to tweak or do any adjusting. We just set it up and like their ad says, "It Just Works.""
"Replication is most valuable."
"It is a flexible, simple, and scalable software-based solution. It has agentless functionality with specific hypervisors and agent-based functionality with specific operating systems. It gives you the flexibility to use your own hardware and back up physical Windows, Linux, IBM AIX, and Oracle Solaris systems as well as VMware VMs, Hyper-V VMs, and Nutanix VMs from one console. It also has integration with major applications that most companies are using, such as Active Directory, SQL, Exchange, or SharePoint. It has integrations, not just for the backup on the image, host layer, or hypervisor, but also for performing an application-consistent backup. It is helpful in backing up to the tape, cloud, DR site, etc. It is really flexible. It is really amazing that you can restore any backup on VMware, Azure, or AWS. As compared to the other solutions in the market. Veeam has really integrated a lot in the past years. It has the best performance and perfect replication."
"My customers find the backup and recovery ease of use is the most beneficial feature."
"It would be nice if it could support more types of storage: EMC, HPE, Veeam, etc."
"It would be nice to have a partition that I can boot and reinstall when taking a backup image from the operating system."
"When you are using enterprise hardware and software that increases over time, there need to be better and more management features. For pure backup software, it is fine, but when it comes to managing a large infrastructure it is lacking."
"We have issues with the SQL databases which are a little shaky."
"The solution could be better if some of the features were more in-depth."
"In some cases, at the time of reinstallation, some disasters happen. For the licensing on the computer the name of the computer and domain, everything is removed from the registry level. Then we have to install the Acronis from the start for it to work properly. Otherwise, the Acronis software will cause a lot of trouble at the time of reinstallation. That's where they need to improve the product. In the case people want to install the same software with the same hardware, it should not stop me."
"This is not a feature-rich solution."
"Improved support for immutability and Utility AirGAP could be beneficial."
"We backup a lot of information in a 24-hour period. It works fine. But there's always room for improvement on that."
"I would prefer it if the backup console did not require use of a specified program but rather that it could be opened from any website."
"The VMotion feature is not reliable enough to ensure a successful migration operation."
"We would like to have the ability to perform more things on the web interface. The heavy client is still needed to perform advanced tasks."
"It needs to support more applications. In terms of supported applications, Oracle SQL and Office 365 are supported, but I am not sure if it supports Linux-based applications. That's why I'm looking for an alternative. I am currently testing Commvault. The advantage of Commvault is that a lot of applications are supported with it. I am not sure if CIFS is currently supported. It would be nice to have this feature in case it is not already supported"
"The more features the solution has the more complex it can be to set up. Veeam Backup & Replication can be complex."
"Could be improved with hybrid cloud integration backup."
"The solution could improve by having more user-friendly dashboards."
"Sometimes Veeam is not that effective when it comes to legacy environments."
