Room For Improvement

Druva inSync's pricing and performance issues, alongside interface and support challenges, hinder user experience and recovery 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.

Having something such as a community for peer-to-peer interaction would be a valuable asset.

Valuable Features

Acronis Cyber Protect is user-friendly, supports various platforms, offers robust backup, recovery, and integrates malware protection efficiently.
Druva inSync offers efficient, secure cloud backups with M365 integration, featuring deduplication, geofencing, encryption, and seamless restoration.
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.

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.

Druva inSync provides single item recovery which helps in restoring specific emails without needing to restore the entire mailbox, saving time and reducing data duplication.

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.

Single item recovery has transformed mailbox backups and now provides faster, precise restores
Druva inSync can improve if we can integrate a chatbot. Instead of going through the portal, if there were a chatbot and we could restore mailboxes and groups by chatting with the chatbot, that would be an added feature. The restoration of notes is a limitation. Druva inSync is not capable of restoring notes. If users have something saved in notes, Druva inSync will not be able to restore it. If it could enhance the capability to restore notes, that would also be helpful. If it were to enable chatbot functionality and by just saying to the chatbot to restore a mailbox or restore an item to the mailbox, that would enhance productivity. There is some limitation of restoration for certain folders. If those could be fixed, it would be a perfect product.
