Room For Improvement

Acronis Cyber Protect requires improvements in interface design, compatibility, scalability, integration, performance, support, documentation, and security measures.
<p>Infrascale Backup &amp; Disaster Recovery needs bandwidth control, clearer pricing, improved dashboard, Linux support, security upgrades, and better integration.</p>
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

When the product works, there is really nothing to fix, but they can allow different types of backups, such as differential or incremental backups.
President at IT1 Service
 

Setup Cost

Acronis Cyber Protect offers flexible licensing and reasonable ongoing costs, providing value and cost-effectiveness for smaller environments.
Infrascale Backup offers flexible pricing and responsive support, appealing to small enterprises, though costs can vary and seem complex.
I would rate the price as nine out of ten.
IT Specialist at Ramton Technologies Pvt Ltd
To someone considering Infrascale but is concerned about the price, I would say that they should get Infrascale's service no matter what it costs because any downtime or any loss of data is substantially worse than any cost for backup.
President at IT1 Service
We recently renewed one of our agreements with them, and even though we were going to renew anyway, they added more margin in terms of a discount for us for renewing early.
Co-Founder | Director | CTO | vCISO | Lead Consultant Infrastructure & Cloud at UBIQUITY Ltd
The per-terabyte pricing is very competitive compared to the others.
President at a media company with 11-50 employees
 

Valuable Features

Acronis Cyber Protect offers a user-friendly interface, comprehensive protection, cloud integration, and secure backups with advanced cybersecurity features.
Infrascale Dashboard is valued for its ease, reliable backup, intuitive disaster recovery, and seamless local and cloud options.
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.
IT Manager at HASNER TECNOLOGIA
Performing backup and recovery can be done very intuitively with the solution and the interface that is part of the solution.
President at a media company with 11-50 employees
What I like the most about it is that backups and restores are simple, straightforward, and clean.

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.

Backups and restores are easy and we can do on-site disaster recovery within minutes
The benefits of using Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery become evident very quickly. You have the solution on-prem and can restore files and servers on-prem as well. You can set up certain virtual machines on-prem if you need them. If a machine goes down or has an error, you can put the machines into the cloud, which is very important if there's a fire or a disaster, where you really have to get the business working again. It's very quick. I saw those benefits immediately; that was one of the reasons we moved certain customers over to the Infrascale solution. They had different solutions in place before and were not happy with the amount of time it took to restore data or perform disaster recovery. We tested it out and ran some server restores before signing the customer up for the solution. It is very important for my organization that Infrascale Backup & Disaster Recovery is available via a single dashboard. I have multiple customers, so being able to see all of them in one single dashboard and drill deeper into the servers is very important for me. Infrascale's unified dashboard has helped me save time. Infrascale's ability to restore data is great, fast, and very efficient.
