Acronis Advanced Backup
Acronis Backup Cloud is suited for backing up Windows Servers. Downtime is greatly decreased by using their virtualization options. You will need a Hyper-V enabled computer to virtualize, though, but this can be one of your general-use workstations. A Windows 10 Pro machine with 16 GB of RAM would do it for you.Or, if you have Macs that need to be backed up, you can do that as well. You can grab either full volume images, or files/folders.I can't really think of a scenario that you would not want Acronis Backup Cloud, except pre-Server 2012 OS's, since virtualization isn't supported on those older systems.

Amazon Drive
Amazon Cloud Drive is a fantastic backup solution for storing your digital files on the web, but if you want to manage, tweak, organize or otherwise maintain those files after they have reached the cloud, the experience immediately begins to suffer. This is especially noted when major competitor products like Microsoft and Dropbox offer similar services at similar prices, but offer far better interfaces for file management.

Amazon Drive
- Amazon Drive automatically detects photos and videos in specific folders (that you choose). It will add them to Drive without any action from me.
- There is a desktop app where you can access all of your files (in addition to web-based access).

Cons
Acronis Advanced Backup
- No option for on premises hardware BDR. This means recovery restorations rely on self-supplied hardware performance.
- License per machine can get costly if large number of computers or servers.

Amazon Drive
- Less storage than Google Drive, Google offers 15GB of free space - vs. Amazon's 5GB.
- Also, unlike with Google Drive, you can't back up your work with Amazon Drive ( I also use Google Drive, since I have a Gmail account).
- A lot more expensive than Google Drive, which is 1.99/month...but they are more in line with Dropbox pricing.

The cost savings we realized from moving to this software has us hooked - it does everything we need it to do on a very high level (virtualization, for example) and is very low cost for us.

The system is very easy to use and it's use of apps for almost all devices and hardware makes it even easier to manage and store photos and documents. I highly recommend this as an easy to use solution for novices!

We seldom make use of Acronis support, but when we have they have been brilliant. All our engineers are Acronis certified, if they not able to resolve an issue, we touch base with our local Acronis supplier, Synapsys, who resolve issues 90% of the time.

Overall great software to use for file share, storage, and collaboration. Its security is great and the user management is spot on. The only thing that makes me dock it a point is that the device management as a subset of user management is kind of clunky. It hasn't been an issue yet, but it could compromise security in the future. Overall, would recommend

Alternatives Considered
Acronis Advanced Backup
We went with Acronis Backup Cloud because we're able to backup all platforms, not just PCs. And the price was good when it comes to all those options. It's a hard sell to clients, but when explained properly, the understand the cost of a good solution. It's like having good car insurance.

Amazon Drive Cloud has the advantage of being backed by one of the companies that has had the highest growth in recent years: Amazon. That gives us security and has been the main reason for us to trust this product. We believe that the security systems of this company are good enough to be quiet while our files are stored on their servers

Return on Investment
Acronis Advanced Backup
- It's been a great investment especially knowing our data is protected.
- We no longer worry about upgrade storage hardware or devices.

- It slowed us down at first since we went from purely agile to document based then agile.
- It is easy to use so even non-developers can access code snippets which they wouldn't know how to access on github.
- It has a lot of features we don't have a use for in our business.
