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

"Acronis is a flexible solution. It can back up workstations, endpoints, and even your virtual environments and cloud-based environments. So, we can do the backup of the whole gamut of products."

"I recommend this solution every chance I get, including for personal use."

"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package."

"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 web-based interface makes it easy to use."

"The most valuable feature is the quick restoration. We can restore the data quickly."

"Our customers can backup to local storage and they can back up or replicate to the cloud."

"This is a perfect option for an SMB."

More Acronis Cyber Protect pros

"The application backup is excellent, and using Veeam for backing up Kubernetes environments is a valuable tool."

"I recommend it to other companies due to its reliable solutions, significant cost reductions, and comprehensive functionality."

"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud’s most valuable feature is data backup and replication."

"I find Veeam to be a good tool for backing up Office 365 and virtual machine environments."

"Veeam Backup for Google Cloud provides significant cost reduction with NETIO Cloud's offering."

"Dealing with cloud solutions is simple and removes many headaches from troubleshooting and implementing the solution."

Cons

"Some of the default settings out-of-the-box should already be set up for the novice user. For instance, the warnings that say a hard drive has bad sectors and stops the backup from performing."

"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."

"I wish Acronis had a feature that would allow me to set an expiry date for customers when I send them Acronis, such as when I create a customer workload or gigabyte."

"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."

"The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors."

"I would change the GUI a little to make it a bit more interactive. It should have a slightly more updated look, not something which looks like it was designed five years ago despite the fact it is easy to follow and very appealing."

"We would always support better pricing."

"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."

More Acronis Cyber Protect cons

"Some of the prerequisites for Veeam are challenging."

"The licensing could be improved, particularly by providing a 'pay-as-you-go' option through Azure, AWS, or GCP portal itself."

"There could be a feature to take a snapshot for version backup."

"I do not have notes for improvements."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are billed annually and there are no extra charges."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis."

"We have a Cyber Cloud backup license and we have on-premises storage. Both can be useful for our customers."

"We were on a perpetual license for Acronis Backup."

"The price is reasonable."

"Our licenses come with a one-time yearly subscription fee."

"It has already paid off itself in the first few months that we implemented it."
