Reliable image backups have protected our HMIs and simplified on‑premises recovery
We have not tried the vulnerability assessment feature yet because we have a different set of protocols for our cybersecurity. We conduct audits and plug the gaps as part of our security approach. We are not using AI with the anti-malware from Acronis; we are using it only for backup and recovery. On the backup and restoration side with Acronis Backup, some on-premises AI features which can detect anomalies may be something which would improve the product significantly. Otherwise, we are not very comfortable with cloud-based solutions at this time. We are looking for products which are entirely on-premises, so they remain within our control.

Plenty of useful feature and reliable
We use Asigra for backups I have found all the features useful in the solution. I have been using Asigra for approximately two months. The solution is stable. The six people in our IT department are using the solution. The initial setup was a medium difficulty level. Some parts were complex…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product meets our company's disaster recovery needs."
"Acronis Cyber Protect is a cost-effective product and it is very reliable and useful."
"The most valuable feature of Acronis Backup is the data recovery and restoration details."
"Due to some power failure our 10 systems crashed which were recovered in few minutes by the Acronis recovery partition."
"There is advanced management where we can do passing, software inventory, and hardware inventory."
"For me, the tool proved most valuable in scenarios where it offered easy setup, fast backups, and recognition of SQL logs on virtual machines."
"The most valuable feature is the fact that it backs up my systems transparently in the background, and I'm not even conscious of it."
"The most valuable feature is its ability to back up and recover our production environment from ransomware."
"Asigra’s multi-tenancy feature is most valuable as it allows the company to on-sell a private cloud backup and recovery solution to existing customers."
"I am personally a fan of Exchange email level and MS SQL db level backups."
"We can provide a reliable service to our customers."
"The agentless architecture has minimized our software footprint at the client level."
"I have found all the features useful in the solution."
"The solution has been very stable."
"Since we have implemented Asigra we don’t have an administrator to do manual backup to tapes and external HDD; everything is automated and there are no hassles for the administrator."
"It provides a secure and stable cloud backup solution."
 

Cons

"It does not delete locked files."
"Those functions have been removed from the product and it's very frustrating."
"It seems like I haven't had any issues since I added the RAM to the Management Server, but it does seem to start being sluggish because I have it running on a Windows 7 machine."
"There are some limitations to the backup."
"The cost of Acronis Cyber Protect is good, but as a general judgment here in Egypt, the economic situation is not good. If they can provide a waiver or discount for low-income countries, it would help to spread adoption."
"Yes, mostly with Acronis Snap Deploy, using network deployment, most clients do not automatically get DHCP settings when using dual network adapters on the Server."
"There are some frustrating things. One in particular is when you're looking through your logs from the previous night's jobs and you see a warning, and you go in, and you try to dig through to find what exactly the warning meant, and you can't find anything."
"The product would be better if they offered more integration capabilities."
"Customer services would be a 3 out of 5, simply due high turnover and lack of communication."
"More integration with leading storage solutions."
"Product would occasionally encounter issues when it impacted other software."
"Some more work on reporting tools is required to help get better auto-generated information and analysis from the system."
"Personally speaking, I think the reporting should be more interactive."
"At present, downloading the relevant files and placing them into a directory on the DS-System is a little cumbersome and open to error/malicious use."
"Technical Support: 5/10, Due to different timezones it would always be difficult to get hold of a tech."
"The management could be a bit better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are monthly fees to use Acronis Backup."
"It is very cost-effective for the SMB segment, especially for start-ups and smaller environments. It is cost-effective for on-premises and on-cloud deployments in such environments."
"The tool is cheap compared to other products."
"Licensing fees are billed annually and there are no extra charges."
"Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"The price is reasonable."
"You don't have to pay for licenses. You can pay per gig per month. It is pretty reasonable, especially when you do it per gig."
"The cost of updates is less than $100 USD yearly."
"The price of Asigra could improve, it is expensive. We have purchased an annual license."
"Asigra is priced competitively, but requires technical expertise to operate, optimize, and maintain its services."
