Room For Improvement

Druva Data Security Cloud needs better performance, customization, interface, integration, and pricing to enhance user experience and efficiency.
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.
Chairman at ONGC
It's only after we discovered there was a compatibility issue with the application that the client was running that we actually had to do a lot of log file shipping to Acronis themselves and getting solutions because of other problems.
Independent Business Owner at 3Kay Solutions
Having something such as a community for peer-to-peer interaction would be a valuable asset.
Responsible for Internet Technology Development at College of International Transport & Logistics - CITLC
There is a limitation in the advanced reporting features, such as understanding how many files are in the backup, which users are actively using it, and how many files have been backed up properly.
Multi Property IT Manager at John Q. Hammons Hotels, Inc.
They could integrate an EDR tool during backup. By integrating with that tool, they could easily rectify cyberattacks, miscellaneous attacks, and ransomware.

There is not enough transparency on pricing.
System Engineer at TEKsystems

Acronis Cyber Protect offers competitive, affordable pricing with flexible, user-based models and minimal setup costs, ideal for SMBs and enterprises.
Druva Data Security Cloud provides scalable, usage-based pricing, eliminating infrastructure costs, appealing to enterprises with flexible, predictable billing.

I think it is not that expensive.
Intern Systems And Security at a tech consulting company with 51-200 employees
The challenging part is that costs increase as data grows, which can become expensive for large environments.
Sr. Executive Engineer at a tech services company with 51-200 employees
Compared to other applications that we are paying for, Druva's pricing is fair.
Multi Property IT Manager at John Q. Hammons Hotels, Inc.
Prices for the solution are quite high.

Valuable Features

Acronis Cyber Protect is user-friendly, supports various platforms, offers robust backup, recovery, and integrates malware protection efficiently.
Druva Data Security Cloud provides efficient, scalable, and secure data protection with AI threat detection and no infrastructure needs.
The biggest benefit of Acronis Cyber Protect for my customers is that it is a great asset to protect business data and ensure data is in a secure Vault.
Responsible for Internet Technology Development at College of International Transport & Logistics - CITLC
The NASDAQ level CFS level backup is the feature I find most beneficial for our data protection strategy.
IT Specialist at Ramton Technologies Pvt Ltd
This is beneficial because any backup package stored in the cloud is not free, and if it shrinks well, it allows users to pay less for cloud storage.

Chairman at ONGC
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.
Tilak Rohitsingh - PeerSpot reviewer

Backup has protected our organization-wide email data and supports fast malicious deletion recovery
Some of the best features that Druva Data Security Cloud offers are endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery. Out of endpoint backup, ransomware protection, cloud apps, and eDiscovery, I find the infinitely scalable feature to be the most valuable in my day-to-day work, as it does not have any maintenance windows, which is different in terms of data protection. When it comes to features, I appreciate that Druva Data Security Cloud boasts less complexity found in solutions that are not built for the cloud while remaining secure, scalable, and always available, without requiring a maintenance window. Druva maintains the data protection solution, not the customer, and the platform is always up to date with the latest features, which makes it very scalable, as new capacity can be added to subscription on the fly without changes to the backup setting and without needing to purchase and install new appliances or software. The impact of Druva Data Security Cloud on my organization is significant, as it ensures users' data is backed up with snapshots and is very secure on the cloud. I benefit from prompt and clear assistance from Druva support, and the ease of access into the web portal provides a view into a snapshot without having to restore it first. Specific outcomes I have seen with Druva Data Security Cloud include peace of mind knowing our users' Office 365 data is backed up and very secure, along with improved security, additional protection against accidental deletion of mailbox items, and a means for remedial action after a malicious incident that deletes or encrypts users' data.
