We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The image backup and image restore features have been very beneficial to us.""For me, the cost is a significant advantage.""The most valuable features of Acronis Backup are cloning and many other capabilities. For example, you are able to clone the whole operating system and drive. Additionally, the solution is a complete package.""The user interface (UI) is easy to use.""The solution is stable and reliable.""The main reasons that our customers like Acronis are that it is very strong and easy to use.""Acronis Backup is easy to use, intuitive, and has high performance.""The pricing is fine."

"You can back up the whole image.""The solution captures the system state, so when we restore the system, it will be restored to the state it was in at the time of the backup.""The tool helps automate system recovery. The solution is most useful in scenarios involving restoration to a different environment. For instance, when migrating from a physical server to a virtual one, the tool facilitates conversion.""With Veritas System Recovery, we have the option to run an infinite number of full backups according to our requirements.""Offers good recovery quickly.""The solution has helped reduce my company's cost by around 50 to 60 percent.""It has a user-friendly interface.""The installation was straightforward."

Cons
"I wish Acronis had a feature that would allow me to set an expiry date for customers when I send them Acronis, such as when I create a customer workload or gigabyte.""This might be a lack of understanding on my part, but it's difficult to purge old backups.""I would ​change the GUI a little to make it a bit more interactive. It should have a slightly more updated look, not something which looks like it was designed five years ago despite the fact it is easy to follow and very appealing.​""The solution's error handling can be improved specifically for Linux errors.""They've got an agent to back up Microsoft SQL, to our Office 365, but there is not an agent to back up my SQL databases.""The whole product structure is confusing. You can actually get to do what you want to do. But Acronis seems to have a singular ability to make things difficult.""If there was a wizard that would lead you down a road, when creating a backup, that would probably be better than having to go online or call somebody to actually do a backup. It's not intuitive...""The problems that we face are often related to the customer's network, although sometimes there are problems with the software, such as an error in the configuration."

More Acronis Cyber Protect Cons →

"The pricing could be cheaper.""It needs an easier interface.""Veritas System Recovery Manager offers some manager solutions, but there is room for improvement.""The tool's deployment could be easier. The deployment itself isn't the issue; rather, the problem lies in configuring policies and testing everything before it's ready. We invest a significant amount of time in preparing for various scenarios. However, we often encounter situations where changes have occurred since our initial preparations. This can render the automation less valuable.""The product's integration capabilities are an area with certain shortcomings where improvements are required.""Veritas System Recovery’s pricing and local support need some improvement.""We faced issues with recovery and restoration.""Lacks the ability to protect the database snapshot."
