Simplifies backup, restore, and clone management across disparate applications and infrastructures
It's a simple solution to use. It's simple to configure everything that you need — configure your backups. It gives you an option to backup to the cloud or backup to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage. For example, if a customer is running on Azure NetApp files or on something cloud-based that they want to back up, they have the option of bringing their own licensing and cloud controls and NetApp will give them the storage to back up for as long as they want. When deleting backups, the controls are very intuitive so not just anyone can delete the backups, only the administrator is able to do that. Backing up and restoring is simple. It's easy. It's one click of a button. It's quite good, I like it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"A valuable feature is the user-friendly control management. I appreciate the integrated service, where just one agent and one virtual management are needed to handle everything. The solution is highly stable. I rate it a nine out of ten. The support has been consistently excellent. The initial setup is straightforward."
"The customer service and support are really good."
"Acronis has carved out a really good name for themselves and they're a trusted backup software system, and it's mainly from reliability."
"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup Cloud is the ease of management."
"The main strengths of Acronis lie in its cost-effectiveness, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive services."
"The solution is very easy to use, user-friendly, and offers very easy configuration capabilities with a very simple setup that works well for our purposes."
"The product is a good anti-ransomware solution."
"It saves money and time; I have some machines with a very complex setup that take, for example, one week to set up, and in case the machine fails, instead of installing it again in one week, I can restore it in one hour so it saves time and we don't have to bring people again to set up the machine."
"NetApp SaaS Backup is a good product that serves multiple purposes."
"The most valuable feature is the simplicity in configuration and use."
"The most valuable features are the support for both NAS and NFS."
"It gives you an option to back up to the cloud or back up to on-premise, or to backup to cloud storage."

Cons

"They could improve the detection rates of the antivirus."
"We are forced to purchase space in Acronis' private cloud, which is expensive."
"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is an expensive solution."
"I would like to have support for agentless backup, where you don't have to install an agent on the host."
"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it."
"I don't see any room for improvement in the solution itself, but their marketing could be better. Dealers and customers aren't aware of this product or the company, so maybe they should concentrate more on marketing."
"There is more room for improvement in the training."
"I would like to see the graphical user interface improved to include all of the functionality because there are some things that you need to use the command-line interface for."
"Better integration with third-party databases and applications is needed."
"The features need to be updated to support the latest hardware, as it changes every year."
"There are still a few things on SharePoint that they need to correct in terms of how they backup and restore."
"For newcomers or people who have less experience, it's a complex solution that could be simplified somewhat."
"There are several things that cannot be backed up as a full system, but rather only as a shared file. It isn't compatible with all applications and databases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing was based on a three-year subscription and the price is good compared so some other vendors."
"My understanding of the costs is that the price is fair, and not too expensive."
"The pricing is more or less the same as what we'd get from Veeam on Office 365, so it's fine."
