Offers replication flexibility across multiple environments, including local centers and secondary sites
It offers key features like any point-in-time recovery without needing scheduled snapshots. It allows for automated VM protection during processes like failover and testing, and it offers replication flexibility across multiple environments, including local centers and secondary sites. It also provides IP address management when network configurations differ across sites.

User-friendly interface, and reasonably priced but the support needs improvement
While the solution is generally satisfactory, we encountered difficulties when attempting to seek assistance for issues we faced. Getting the necessary help proved to be quite challenging. The after-sales service is not ideal for French-speaking customers like us in Quebec. Unfortunately, there is no local support available for us. We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall the product is really good."
"The technical support from Dell is excellent."
"Point-in-time recovery and ease of deployment are valuable."
"Continuous replication with lower RTO and RPO is the most innovative feature, and its tight integration with VMware for VMware VMs is also valuable."
"It is a very simple tool to use and offers flexibility in using the tool for recovery and transitioning from one state to another."
"When it comes to disaster recovery, this is one of the best solutions there is for EMC products."
"The most valuable feature is that it is journal-based and you don't have to replicate a lot of data."
"The solution is quite stable. We haven't experienced any kind of bug or glitch. We haven't experienced crashes."
"With Veeam, you get a useable copy when you restore a backup."
"Replication without network changes."
"The most valuable feature is that it is very elastic. It's adaptable because it's very flexible and modular."
"For my needs, the solution offers everything I want."
"The solution is extremely stable; we haven't come across any bugs, crashes, or glitches."
"In my opinion, the console or dashboard is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"The best part about this solution is that it just works."
"The interesting part of the solution is that the customer does not have to invest in a second site to store their offsite backups."
 

Cons

"I would like to see integration with EMC NetWorker in the next release."
"There is a problem with the solution's architecture. First of all, it requires double the resources on the virtual environment to set up one environment."
"In the next release of this software, I would like to see options that help to decrease the bandwidth required, such as compressing the data."
"The price of this product could be lower."
"Their L1 support is not so good as of now. They have recently outsourced to a company, and they are not doing good."
"In some cases, the response times could improve, but we haven't had issues with their support."
"It can have better integration. It would be good if, in addition to VMware VM, it can also support other hypervisors. I also want to see support for Oracle databases. As of now, it supports only SQL and Exchange. It would be good to also support other databases."
"I would like to have the HTML 5 interface working because it is currently not functioning with the VMware environment."
"Basically, a huge amount of storage capacity can be required in certain cases."
"I would like to see more advanced training courses made available to cover complicated use cases."
"It would be helpful if the enterprise edition was more complete. It's not as complete as the enterprise plus edition is."
"The solution should allow for interfacing with other public cloud vendors. They could work to build something around that concept."
"The biggest thing that Cloud Connect needs is native deduplication."
"We are now able to work on more security-related tasks with Acronis, as they offer features such as antivirus, DLP, and various cybersecurity options. This is a significant improvement compared to our previous solution with Veeam Cloud Connect, where we were lacking such features. It also allows us to offer a wider range of security options to our customers."
"Doesn't back-up from KVM."
"Some of the features I'd like added to the solution would be coming up in version 12, so the only area for improvement I saw in Veeam Cloud Connect was the need to have more support for object storage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive product."
"The tool is expensive. If one means cheaply priced and ten means expensive, I rate the tool's price as a seven."
"It was a part of a backup solution. So, it was free for us."
"This is not a very cheap solution and compared to others, it is expensive."
"There is a license required for this solution and the pricing depends on how many virtual machines you have."
"Pricing-wise, it is pretty much fair for any customer who only has a VMware environment. Licensing is based on the number of VMs that you want to protect at any given point in time. Licensing is not based on size."
"The price of the solution could be cheaper. There are monthly or yearly subscription options available. The annual subscription tends to be cheaper."
"The licensing is MSP-based. It is connected to the portal, and you can deploy it to your end users as well."
"The licensing fee is on a monthly basis."
"The price of the solution is reasonable because of our good standing with the vendor."
"The pricing of Veeam Cloud Connect is good."
"We are looking into how we can extend the license of this product."
"I think that this is one of the most cost-effective solutions."
"It's not the cheapest solution on the market but it's reliable, so we find it cost-effective."
