Have improved recovery preparedness and see potential growth with better technical support

Acronis provides ease of use with all tools and solutions operating through a single console and agent. This reduces the workload on endpoints during backups and other cybersecurity operations. Backup is crucial as it allows data recovery. Email security helps protect against malicious emails. The failover process is preconfigured, offering a simplistic switch over for servers.

Andrea Zanonepoma

Engineer at a renewables & environment company with 51-200 employees

Has reduced downtime by enabling fast recovery after ransomware incidents

The facility to use Datto SIRIS is a function that I prefer. The user interface of Datto SIRIS is very simple and very user-friendly. The restore is very fast. The alerts that arrive in my email are very complete. Reporting in Datto SIRIS is very efficient. The reporting via email from Datto SIRIS for me, my customer, and my team shows that every single backup is okay or if there is a problem because the snapshot for the server is broken or another problem that I can address systematically. Since I started using Datto SIRIS, the time to recover data or servers has improved significantly; before, restoring a file or server was very long with the normal backup system. Datto reduced the time much more when I needed to recover a file or a machine. The cost for Datto SIRIS is very important. Using Datto SIRIS notably reduces time and introduces high-level security. Datto SIRIS positively impacts my organization by reducing downtime for the restore. The restore with Datto SIRIS is very fast compared to other solutions that I know.
