Pros

"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud provides unlimited backup features for Office 365 accounts."
"The product is stable and has good performance. The product is scalable The solution is easy to set up."
"The product has been very reliable from day one. The biggest advantage of the cloud is that you can scale up and down as you go along."
"I like the disaster recovery feature of this solution and the interface is great."
"One of my favorite features of the Acronis backup product is the ability to replicate the backups. Backup data can be replicated to a second, third, or even fourth data source."
"The sync process has been quick, and the software correctly maintains the same file structure as in File Explorer."
"Excellent service."
"I can access my files from all kind of devices and operating systems. I do not need any more external flash drives. I can even edit my files directly in the cloud using pCloud Drive."
"The pCloud sync server client has worked well in the trial version."
"After a lot of tests, I found pCloud to be the most secure and affordable solution for independent businesses like myself."
"I trust pCloud to store my business and personal files like photos, videos, university books, etc. pCloud is always there when I need it."
"I like the interface and that they add new features all the time, but I use it mainly for the sync option which keeps my files up to date."
"pCloud is one of my favourite cloud storage services that help me to store and share important images, videos, and files."
 

Cons

"We've had some troubles with the data center."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud needs to be more flexible with its pricing."
"​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."
"There is more room for improvement in the training."
"The speed of the backup process in the solution can be improved"
"Reporting is not on par. It needs some more information as per customer or partner interest. I hope Acronis is working on it."
"Acronis may claim it's due to security reasons, but I believe there should be an option to delete specific files from old backups stored on the Acronis Cloud. Currently, there is no such feature, and I strongly feel the need for a deletion option for erroneous backups."
"The solution's provisioning of packages and how they are charged could be improved."
"I'd like to be able to edit my files via the mobile device without downloading the file on my local space."
"Integration with third-party software mostly. Also, online file editing option for documents."
"I would really like to be able to search entire documents."
"Sometimes the desktop sync can take some moment before starting the sync process. Also, pCloud should improve their customer care service."
"My recommendation is that support could be better, even though sometimes things can be technically complicated."
"I would like to be able to edit the files at the same time with the others, but I understand that this is not possible with the cloud solutions in general."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"When we tested the scenario for over 20 employees, the cost was much lower than the other solutions in the market."
"I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten. You don't have to pay any additional costs."
"Acronis is cost effective and I would rate it two out of ten."
"I would rate the pricing of Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud as five out of ten"
"It's relatively cheap, but you see the benefits more at a higher volume."
"With the price, there is a certain limitation on terabytes but no limits on how many servers or how many services you can run."
"The pricing is a little lower than the competition, at least in India."
"Its cost depends on storage size and number of endpoints."
