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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Backups of servers while they are running."
"For local backups, it has options to back up almost any storage. The back can be either a shared folder or anything you want, it's pretty flexible."
"This solution fulfills all of our needs; its reporting features work flawlessly and it does everything that it's supposed to do once it's setup, without maintenance or any additional time."
"The most reliable solution that I found was Acronis because of the program, which is why I would choose Acronis."
"The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are instant restore, antivirus, and ransomware protection, and additionally, the documentation is good."
"There are cheaper backup solutions around, but they are not as straightforward to set up and to use and lack some of the features of this product."
"It's a good solution for backing up items."
"Acronis helps to backup data on a server and also to manage some cloning from 1 PC to another using the method."
"The reliable backup and restoring of the Salesforce data is the most valuable feature."
"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."
 

Cons

"The new version has anti-malware and software management features, but these features should be enhanced. It is working as an exclusive solution along with the backup and recovery."
"I needed tech support to straighten out an issue with cloud backup. I have troubleshooting to do with failed backups."
"I also think the fact that it is extremely customizable means that it's really easy to get something wrong, and it not work as intended."
"When an error occurs, the information is not always easy to understand and these messages should be made more clear."
"I would like to see better centralized management, because I use it across multiple clients. To have a console that centrally manages them would be nice."
"They can include something called a backup appliance. Although Acronis is a software-driven company, it would be good for customers to have some kind of backup appliance on top of a lightweight operating system. This will also reduce the cost. Currently, the customers have to buy the hardware in addition to the operating system, which increases the overhead in terms of procurement."
"Acronis has some limitations on the cloud side, but Veeam's cloud backup is quite efficient on cloud backup, especially when it comes to Microsoft 365, etc."
"I would like to have more cybersecurity integration to properly round up the product and its offering. In terms of cybersecurity, if the offerings can be more versatile so that it is not just a backup solution, it would be great. Some addition to cybersecurity would really be helpful so that it becomes a kind of a suite of products. Backup and recovery form a part of the broader security strategy. Its integration with other cybersecurity solutions would provide proper visibility to not just your cybersecurity dashboard but also to all of your backups. You would have a pretty good view of the entire security landscape that you are managing."
"The anonymization feature can be improved."
"There is need to do the same for the other SaaS applications."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Doing what this is capable of doing, the cost of it is in line."
"The cost of updates is less than $100 USD yearly."
"Our licensing fees are on a yearly basis."
"I would rate the solution’s pricing an eight out of ten. The tool’s subscription is yearly."
"It is a low-cost solution."
"The pricing is reasonable. However, it depends on the storage that you use. It would be great to have a package that we can use up to a certain size of the backup, this would allow us to know what the price is going to be up to that capacity."
"There is a license required for this solution and it can be on a monthly basis."
"If the solution was less expensive it would be better."
