Featured Reviews

Stavros Samiotis - PeerSpot reviewer
Restores files accidentally deleted by developers and efficiently blocked a lot of attacks against our servers
The backup, the vulnerability assessment, and the anti-malware capabilities have been most impactful for data protection. Acronis approaches cybersecurity holistically, focusing on five key pillars: * Protection * Detection * Response * Recovery * Forensics It covers the need to block threats, investigate incidents, and ensure disaster recovery. This approach aligns well with current cybersecurity trends, including backups and deploying Malware Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) systems alongside Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) systems. While it doesn't yet include features like password management or security awareness training for end-users, Acronis has announced plans to integrate those in upcoming updates.

Lightweight, easy to install and configure, and it does its job automatically
One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console. Currently, Druva can manage only one Office 365 tenant per console. As a customer, I should be able to manage all Office 365 tenants from a single console. This is one product feature I am looking for.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has one console for many loads and one backup for many recovery options. Converting backups as a virtual machine offers an edge as a low-cost Disaster Recovery solution."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it can cover both the cloud and the on-prem devices."
"The most valuable feature I have found the be the management console it is very easy to use and automation is important. Additionally, overall the solution is easy to use."
"I do not need to touch my firewall, especially when it is managed by the provider and takes ages to do a single NAT."
"The most valuable feature is disaster recovery."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"I have experience with the technical team of the product, and I feel that they offer good support."
"The management, backup, and recovery features are all very good."
"The main benefit of this solution is that it automatically scans the files for ransomware after the backup is complete."
"If you are looking for a backup solution, go with Druva because it's quite simple."
"Druva is offered as a service so that we can access it from any enterprise-based browser or URL. We also have a single sign-on, which allows me to log in securely. Hence, I can easily access the system, configure it, perform day-to-day monitoring tasks, and check for any issues or configurations needed. Overall, it's a simple and easy-to-use tool with a high-speed and straightforward interface for management."
"The recovery aspect of the solution is its most valuable feature."
"The tool has good features. The backup is also accurate."
"It is simple to implement and use. It's very flexible."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"We get control over authentication policies and create an agentless backup by generating a token for that."
 

Cons

"​For you to actually see the full logs, you have to use additional tools or even contact support so they can pull them with own tools."
"We've had some troubles with the data center."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"The shortcomings in the solution can be overcome if the product improves in the area of completion time so that the restoration process does not take much time."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud needs to be more flexible with its pricing."
"I keep submitting a request for more flexible reporting. I'd like to create custom reports in my own way, rather than just combining the pre-defined modules."
"The Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud server could improve by having better performance."
"It will be good if Acronis can provide more documentation and videos describing how to do different things. Their documentation is good, but it is without examples. They don't have lots of videos. They should put more videos on YouTube to show how to set up certain things, how to restore, and how to back up. They should provide step-by-step documentation and videos for specific scenarios. I would like them to improve the command line feature. The command line is not working smoothly, and there is some problem with it. If the command line is improved, it will take the product to the next level. It would be great if it can back up data from storage so that people are able to back up old data. Such a feature will make it an enterprise solution for a full backup."
"I would like to see security improved in the next release."
"The current procedure for data encryption is not as straightforward"
"One functionality I would like is the ability to manage multiple Office 365 tenants from a single console."
"The solution takes a lot of time during restoration."
"The support of other cloud services needs to be improved. It has very good cloud support for AWS but not with others."
"The backup time is very poor. The backup runs continuously. It goes on from morning till night. The system performance also becomes very poor when Druva inSync is running."
"The product needs to improve its support."
"The user quota is an area that needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Acronis offers a 30-day free trial of the product."
"When we tested the scenario for over 20 employees, the cost was much lower than the other solutions in the market."
"It's relatively cheap, but you see the benefits more at a higher volume."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud's price is reasonable."
"The solution is a bit expensive, but it's worth the price."
"I would rate the pricing of Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud as five out of ten"
"We pay monthly for the use of the solution."
"Out of all the solutions we evaluated, Druva inSync was the most affordable."
"I would rate the pricing a seven out of ten, with one being very cheap and ten being very expensive."
"It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"Once you decide to go with this product the cost can be worked out with the vendor."
"The price is quite good, It's approximately $4000.00 per user for one year."
"The pricing is thirty-five dollars per year or three dollars per month per user."
"It is an expensive product for the middle class or SMB customers in India. A lot of top-level big companies also cannot afford this solution. During the license period, one can download the entire data from the cloud without paying any additional cost. This way the data can be easily recreated from the stored data when a machine is lost or the data is compromised."
"The pricing of Druva inSync is very high as compared to other cloud backup solutions."
