"The performance has been fine so far."
"The user interface (UI) is easy to use."
"It makes a full image of the hard drive. If a hard drive fails, all we do is recover to another hard drive."
"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."
"Acronis has a very rich functionality."
"For my first experience, it is the best software for backups, especially for a five-system backup."
"Acronis Backup is easy to use, intuitive, and has high performance."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"The feature that I like the most is the system backup recovery from OneDrive."
"The most valuable feature is the integration with our Teams environment."
"The most valuable feature is the built-in integration with Office 365, which helps us protect email accounts and servers. We use it on virtual servers on the cloud with Azure, or we can use an agent on physical servers."
"It is easy to use and easy to recover files."
"Veeam makes modular solutions, so you can install Veeam Backup for Office 365 and Veeam Backup and Replication in one single server. You can do an all in one installation, and roll it out."
"I have used the technical support a few times and they've been reasonably helpful."
"The solution is stable."
"This is an easy-to-install easy-to-use solution for backing up Office 365 email."
"Acronis Backup isn't scalable at all."
"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."
"I've had some issues with the understandability of the interface. I think if they had someone with expertise in user interfaces to look at this, they could clean up the user interface."
"It could have a better ability to manage backups over a longer period."
"We have issues with the SQL databases which are a little shaky."
"The problems that we face are often related to the customer's network, although sometimes there are problems with the software, such as an error in the configuration."
"I would like to have more cybersecurity integration to properly round up the product and its offering. In terms of cybersecurity, if the offerings can be more versatile so that it is not just a backup solution, it would be great. Some addition to cybersecurity would really be helpful so that it becomes a kind of a suite of products. Backup and recovery form a part of the broader security strategy. Its integration with other cybersecurity solutions would provide proper visibility to not just your cybersecurity dashboard but also to all of your backups. You would have a pretty good view of the entire security landscape that you are managing."
"A little bit more integration would be good. It should support broader platforms."
"A while back, I had some trouble using the agent. It might be a problem with older versions. Sometimes, I also have issues installing or making backups from the console to that type of operating system."
"It needs to be able to integrate with other emailing systems, like Linux."
"Currently, I'm working for Huawei and they dropped the support for Huawei, so that's an issue for us."
"The capacity storage is a challenge everywhere in the backup industry. The general feedback people are coming back to about this is that there is no deduplication based on it."
"It would be a great improvement to be able to recover cover a VM straight to on-prem."
"As with all things, the solution can be improved by reducing the cost."
"Veeam Backup for Office 365 can improve by adding more features with Microsoft teams. We have many files that we are working on with Microsoft teams and there should be more integration and features."
"Veeam is quite expensive."
