Technology Specialist at Ideeya technologies
The scalability of Acronis Disaster Recovery is good, and I would rate it an eight out of ten.

I rated the scalability as seven because even though the solution can scale, load balancing must be done manually, as it's not automated.

Room For Improvement

Acronis Disaster Recovery requires improvement in support, pricing, documentation, integration, security features, and user guidance for better effectiveness.
Nasuni struggles with cloud integration, performance, and user experience, needing improvements in data retention, security, and analytics.
For the backup to compete in the enterprise market, there must be improvements.
Associate Product Executive at Connex Information Technologies
If a server is completely offline and destroyed, the system should offer an intelligent response, providing options to start recovery without requiring manual intervention from engineers.
Senior Engeneer at Telco Systems
They could also enhance endpoint security by integrating EDR within the security framework.
Technical Director at Tecstaq
I suggest Nasuni improve their syslog forwarders to support TCP protocol, as it's more secure than UDP, which is plain text and not protected at all.
Infrastructure Architect at a energy/utilities company with 10,001+ employees
 

Setup Cost

Acronis Disaster Recovery pricing is valued for enterprise features but is seen as costly, with preference for perpetual licenses.
Nasuni offers competitive pricing with flexible cloud compatibility, licensing per terabyte, and cost-effective enterprise solutions.
The price for Acronis Disaster Recovery is fair from the perspective of features, but for Indian customers and in light of the competition, it would be better if the price were a little lower to pitch services more effectively.
Technology Specialist at Ideeya technologies
Acronis Disaster Recovery is fairly priced.
Senior Engeneer at Telco Systems
The pricing for Acronis products has increased by 10% to 15% over the past few years, making it challenging for existing customers to accommodate the rising costs annually.

I prefer solutions with lower pricing.

Technology Specialist at Ideeya technologies
Effective data recovery with strong backup features
I am not using the blockchain-based data integrity verification feature. We have not implemented proactive ransomware protection and anti-malware features, so they have not been helpful to my customers. For shared drives, when configuring SharePoint services for backup, licensing becomes difficult to understand, so that would be a point of interest for improvement. The licensing features should be improved. The licensing for SharePoint should be more visible for SharePoint services backup to make it more feasible and understandable. In terms of management, group management is not available for bulk activities, which I have previously given feedback on in a training session conducted by Acronis. If you want to do any recovery for bulk users, the option for bulk activities is not available in Acronis currently. Bulk activity should be available. Technical support from Acronis requires some improvisation; we do not get on-time support, and we face issues connecting with the account manager, which needs to be improved.

Cloud data management that achieves cost efficiency with advanced data protection features
I am currently using Nasuni for seismic data. We have a huge data size, and we want to reduce costs. Nasuni acts as a caching solution, so we put some data into the cache, and the rest goes to the blob, which helps us save on costs. We use it for applications like Petrol and Tech Log, where 3D…
