Considered Both Products	Acronis Advanced Backup Verified User Administrator Chose Acronis Advanced Backup I used Symantec Ghost probably 12 or 13 years ago - outside of that, I haven't looked elsewhere for an imaging software suite. Acronis Advanced Backup is fantastic at what is does, and supports previously made backups when you upgrade. So I have no fear utilizing them for the … Incentivized Helpful? LM Luca Marabini System Integrator Chose Acronis Advanced Backup With Acronis Advanced Backup you can easily manage your workloads from everywhere, set your report and monitor all the jobs Incentivized Helpful? GF Gary Fouche Co-Owner Chose Acronis Advanced Backup Gravit8 was originally making use of BackupAgent - which was then purchased by Acronis, redesigned, and rebranded. Since this acquisition, we have seen constant improvements and feel that Acronis Backup Cloud is in a league of its own. Incentivized Helpful? Rob Rotundo Service Manager Chose Acronis Advanced Backup We went with Acronis Backup Cloud because we're able to backup all platforms, not just PCs.

TC Ted Cook IT director\System Administrator Chose Acronis Advanced Backup It is cheaper than what other providers offer with a lot more features and it's simple to use. Incentivized Helpful? Derek Schroeder Service Manager Chose Acronis Advanced Backup Acronis is a great solution and provides a flexible amount of ways to backup and restore data. For software, it competes directly with Carbonite, ShadowProtect, Veeam, and Veritas. Most of these solutions are agent based and require licenses for each. Acronis does a great … Incentivized Helpful? Dan Gospe Chief Operating Officer, and HIPAA Privacy Officer Chose Acronis Advanced Backup Acronis Backup Cloud has more features than eFolder, and is less than 1/3rd of the cost.

Michael O'Riley Director of Information Technology Chose Acronis Advanced Backup I believe Acronis has the easiest interface to control backups and restores.

User Testimonials
	Acronis Advanced Backup
Likelihood to Recommend	Acronis 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.

Pros	Acronis Full image and bare-metal recovery backups for any physical or virtual server. Physical to virtual and other tools built-in to make conversions / recoveries easier and more efficient. Ability to spin up servers on the fly from recovery media. Options to backup on premise as well as offsite to Acronis cloud. Incentivized Derek Schroeder Service Manager Read full review
Cons	Acronis They do not sell their product directly, so a reseller is needed - or third party website to process payments for them in order to download the product suite. They have done away with stand-alone software purchases, and have moved to a yearly subscription-based model. It's affordable, but you never truly "own" the software now.

Likelihood to Renew	Acronis 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.

Support Rating	Acronis 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.

Alternatives Considered	Acronis 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. Incentivized Rob Rotundo Service Manager Read full review
Return on Investment	Acronis It's less than $100/year for three installs of the software - the price to utilize this fantastic software is absolutely marginal. I believe they have a higher-end business product available, but it consumes a license each time it is used on a device - so I did not pursue any further information after discovering that.
