Reliable backups have protected our manufacturing data and now provide confident disaster recovery
Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office is used to take care of the data for our manufacturing company and its users. I work with CrowdStrike only for antivirus. We have antivirus products, but not as a main solution. The antiviruses we are using are from another vendor. For antiviruses, we are using Falcon CrowdStrike. My main experience is with CrowdStrike antivirus and Palo Alto firewall. These are the two things for security, and we are exploring other software solutions that will be beneficial for us. I track two levels of ransomware protection: one from Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office and one from CrowdStrike. I do not work with Cortex cloud by Palo Alto; I have the hardware on-premise at my location. I do not work with WildFire, Prisma Access, or Prisma SD-WAN, but I will be looking forward to it. This is the only firewall I am using, but very soon, I will be opting for another Palo Alto firewall of the same model that will be working on high availability. I am not knowledgeable about the CN-Series firewall; I can only talk about the one I have. We have acquired one particular brand, a company called Pernod Ricard, which manufactures products like Chivas Regal whisky and Beefeater. Endpoint Detection and Response is something we will explore after a certain period of time and we are looking for it very soon. I would rate this review an overall eight out of ten.

Offers solid performance and user adaptability but needs better pricing options and local support
BeyondTrust is a strong, compliance-driven solution with excellent market recognition (Gartner, Peers, etc.), making it appealing for Bangladeshi enterprises. However, some key improvements could accelerate adoption: Areas for Improvement: Pricing & Local Affordability While the product’s capabilities justify its value, cost remains a barrier for many Bangladeshi organizations. Competitive pricing or regional discounts would make it more accessible. Local Support & Partnerships Currently, lack of local partners or trainers creates delays in support, implementation, and pricing negotiations. Establishing a Bangladesh-based support team or authorized resellers would improve responsiveness and trust. Enhanced Onboarding & Training Offering localized training programs (in Bengali/English) and documentation would help IT teams deploy and manage the solution more efficiently. Recommendations for Next Release: Introduce tiered pricing for emerging markets like Bangladesh. Develop a partner network in Bangladesh for faster service and sales. Add simplified dashboards for easier monitoring by non-technical staff. Final Note: BeyondTrust is already a top-tier PAM solution, but addressing these gaps would solidify its leadership in Bangladesh’s growing cybersecurity market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The customer service and support are excellent."
"The malware feature is most valuable."
"When it comes to backup, the biggest benefits of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office are its reliability and the assurance it provides, which we have specifically tried and tested during disasters as it saved us from losing data."
"Acronis schedules in the background and does incremental images so it doesn’t take forever to backup."
"The reliable tool allows for quick restoration from backup copies, meaning I do not have to reload Windows or programs."
"Administrators need a tool that provides visibility and clarity about endpoint management within the organization. This addresses the issue of managing privileged users, which is crucial for any administrator or higher management team to control."
"In terms of meeting compliance objectives of securing endpoints, this product is very useful."
"One of the valuable features is the absence of any local user in a unique system. All users are defined in the AD; communication is only between Unix and AD."
"The notable aspect is its ability to capture the application's behavior comprehensively and this thorough analysis is crucial for effective policy management."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"Scalability is good. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten."
"It is straightforward. It is a good technology, and it is made to do one single thing."
"PowerBroker allows elevation of required actions or application and eliminates the need of user having full administrative access."
 

Cons

"The configuration needs improvement."
"I had a couple of false positives, but that’s it."
"Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office needs to improve their reporting part, and the support provided is sometimes inadequate, which causes issues for customers."
"I originally intended to use Acronis for cloud backup, however, the cloud backup had major problems. After struggling with it for about two years, I switched to Carbonite and have not gone back."
"What's bothering me, which is true of all of them, is that sometimes, the error codes that come up don't necessarily get reflected in the searches within their support sites or they're out of date."
"They need to come up with better integrative options which should be customer-centric."
"These are related to the Flash / Java Web UI, which we know is very vulnerable."
"Its feature for establishing workflows needs improvement."
"The initial setup was very difficult. Even if you are an expert in EPM, it is still very difficult."
"It keeps on breaking every now and then. It is not yet mature."
"Reporting analytics is one of the areas that can be improved. It is a new cloud-based solution. So, many more specific reports can come out natively. Currently, we get all the events, and we put them in plug-ins. From there, we generate our own design of reports. If there is a much more solid or robust reporting analytics framework within the product itself, it would be helpful."
"Technical support for BeyondTrust Endpoint Privilege Management should be an enterprise edition; whoever is working in the bank sector for security purposes needs to be 100% secure on the servers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"I'm sure everyone should have the cluster environment, which means more expensive, anyway, cheaper than the other solutions."
"The product’s licensing is different for Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool’s licensing is yearly."
"It was very expensive."
"Its pricing and licensing are okay. We were in the perpetual model when it was on-prem, and now, with the SaaS service, we have a subscription model. As a customer, I would always like to see a lower price, but it seems to be priced at the right model currently, and we are trying to get the maximum benefits out of it."
"The solution's pricing is high."
"This solution is expensive compared to its competitors."
"Price-wise, it is very competitive. In our area, government entities and banks don't go for the monthly payment. It is a headache even for us in terms of finance and procurement to go for monthly payments. Quarterly might be more logical and reasonable, but the minimum that we go for is one year, and sometimes, we even try to compile and give one offering for three years."
"PowerBroker for a Mac client is three times the price of the Windows version."
