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

"Their response is quite efficient."
"Acronis Backup and Recovery has a simple interface that allows administrators to quickly achieve basic backup tasks and restoration."
"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."
"It’s a complete solution for data backup and recovery."
"The most valuable feature is its consistency."
"I've reimaged servers and been back up and running in exactly no time with the completely new hardware."
"Consistency and reliability. The interface is easy to understand and consistent across applications. While not 100%, it is a very reliable backup solution."
"The most valuable feature is the extra protection, especially for the backup."
"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

"There are a lot of products out there that are a little bit stronger than Acronis where AV is concerned."
"It would be nice to have it on the cloud platform without using third-party equipment."
"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."
"Acronis Cyber Protect could be more affordable, especially for us in South America. It is important to review the cost for different countries."
"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."
"It takes a long to backup data using Acronis backup and recovery v11 and I found Acronis support not really helpful as they always suggest to update the software instead of solving the issue with the current version."
"It could back up more things. I don't think it can back up Box and some of the other third-party ones. Not that we use them that much, but the more they can do, the better it would be. There could also be better integrations with RMM tools."
"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 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 tool is cheap compared to other products."
"The tool's subscription costs are monthly. The product's pricing is fair."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"It is very cost-effective for the SMB segment, especially for start-ups and smaller environments. It is cost-effective for on-premises and on-cloud deployments in such environments."
"You don't have to pay for licenses. You can pay per gig per month. It is pretty reasonable, especially when you do it per gig."
"I would say that at the pricepoint that it's at, it's definitely worth the money."
"This is an affordable product and fits within our customers' budgets."
