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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution was easy to install and to deploy."
"Acronis is a highly effective product; it's easy to use and manage."
"This product gave us two major features: Imaging allowed us to create clones from the production server with ultimate speed, and protection against server failures with the ability to restore on different hardware."
"While using this solution for my customers over the past seven years, data loss and other disasters have been prevented and where ransom attacks have occurred, we were able to restore the data where Acronis was used to back up information."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"It has taken a lot of the manual work out of replicating backups."
"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."
"In our recent experiences, Acronis Cyber Protect proved most valuable during instances of colleagues facing migration challenges due to ransomware impacts. In these situations, where servers and backups were affected, having a backup stored in external drives or other devices within our data centers posed risks. To address this vulnerability, we decided to shift to a cloud backup solution."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"It supports Microsoft SQL and Microsoft Exchange, but it does not support Oracle databases or Postgres."
"The cost of Acronis Cyber Protect is good, but as a general judgment here in Egypt, the economic situation is not good. If they can provide a waiver or discount for low-income countries, it would help to spread adoption."
"The pricing could be improved."
"Live thumb drive boot process does not work well and support for it is lacking."
"Currently, there is no option to use the tape drives again as a backup repository for the cloud deployment."
"Restore processes fail sometimes if the file is corrupt."
"MS Exchange and SQL backups are a little slow and odd to setup."
"The technical support needs some improvement."
"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a license required to use this solution and it is inexpensive. However, it is an old license."
"The license is a perpetual license. The cost is an area for improvement."
"The tool's subscription costs are monthly. The product's pricing is fair."
"The tool is cheap compared to other products."
"We were on a perpetual license for Acronis Backup."
"The price is reasonable."
"We use the free version that provides very basic functionalities."
"The price of the solution is expensive and could be reduced a little."
