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.

Comprehensive data protection supports diverse IT environments
Vinchin Backup & Recovery supports most mainstream private cloud platforms, including VMware, Nutanix, and Microsoft Hyper-V, as well as many Chinese-based products. It supports cross-platform backup and recovery, allowing customers to back up from one platform and recover to another. The user interface is very user-friendly, making it easy for customers to understand and use. In addition to virtual machine backups, the platform supports physical server backups, file backups, and database backups. This comprehensive support allows customers to back up most IT resources, including the public cloud, within one platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We are able to remotely backup machines from locations across the United States from one centralized point."
"Ease of deployment is something that was important, and that's what this solution did offer."
"The way Acronis Backup is currently, it is one of the best that we have used."
"The best thing about it is that we can back up pretty much everything we want to; we don't have to have multiple solutions, as it can back up any physical or virtual server, including servers in Azure, as well as SharePoint, OneDrive, and G Suite, so everything we need to back up can be backed up, and that's why we like it."
"The performance has been fine so far."
"One of its most valuable aspects is its user-friendly interface."
"I have not used other backup solutions to compare how well the features work but I have found Acronis Backup to be user-friendly, overall easy to use, and performance is good."
"Our customers are impressed with the scalability and richness of the different functions."
"The user interface is very user-friendly, making it easy for customers to understand and use."
"Vinchin Backup & Recovery supports most mainstream private cloud platforms, including VMware, Nutanix, and Microsoft Hyper-V, as well as many Chinese-based products."
 

Cons

"However it lacks advance features like granular backup and data filtering hence unsuitable for enterprise level."
"The manual is too simple."
"We needed to have help from the vendor for implementation. The vendor used two personnel. We have system administrators and they do the server backups themself."
"I would like to have more hardware space. It would make it better. I would like to have two more terabytes."
"I believe that the next release should be easier to configure as this one is difficult to configure even the easiest of tasks."
"I have had an issue at times with support, because they weren't able to get to me and I've had to call back after an hour or so, but other than that, I can't be more pleased with the product."
"Live thumb drive boot process does not work well and support for it is lacking."
"It could back up more things. I don't think it can back up Box and some of the other third-party ones. Not that we use them that much, but the more they can do, the better it would be. There could also be better integrations with RMM tools."
"The deduplication and compression ratio could be improved to save more space for customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Its price is quite friendly on the pocket. You need to pay the licensing cost upfront, and then the support charges are on an annual basis."
"Pricing is what it is. I don't shop around once I find a good solution. I insist they maintain ongoing support year after year for updates and tech support."
"I find the pricing structure satisfactory, it is around $25 per year."
"I would say that at the pricepoint that it's at, it's definitely worth the money."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"It has already paid off itself in the first few months that we implemented it."
"There is a license required for this solution and it can be on a monthly basis."
"​I like the pricing​, and that it is easy to use and has performed well. ​"
