Acronis Cyber Cloud for Enterprise (discontinued) vs. HYCU

Acronis Cyber Cloud is well suited in any environment where backup is needed. Whether it is backing up a single workstation, 10 servers, or replicating a Virtual machine to another Virtual Host.

The SQL database structure and application-consistent snapshots to local storage and recovery are very well done. The interface is nicely made and it is an intuitive design that needs very little training to use. The Restore from the Cloud function is cumbersome and slow, that could be improved by downloading and finding parts needed, instead of the entire backup media.

Incentivized

• Image backup.
• File folder backup.
• Virtual machine replication.
• Workstation backup.
• Server backup.

Incentivized

• Backup of virtual machines.
• Upload to Cloud backups.
• Recovery of databases backed up through HYCU.

Incentivized

• We would like to see a Virtual Machine test option to test the ability to boot your backups as seen in some competing backup softwares.

Incentivized

• The rollout of the file level backup is still not there.
• The Restore from the Cloud function is not ideal and needs lots of work.
• Backups being in native format would be nice for certain files.

Support has been helpful when we have had to reach out. We have not had to contact support that much so I do not have much feedback on them. I met the support team at the Cyber Summit and they are all very nice, smart individuals.

I have had several requests, and issues with the rollout and deployment of HYCU in our production environment. The HYCU team of support and developers have met each issue with importance and some kind of resolution or explanation of help. They have been so supportive even in the not so easy ones. That says something for their product and team behind it.

Acronis is by far much easier to configure and gain access to cloud resources. Acronis is cloud only whereas Veeam requires an on prem server. We tested both and have found that we were unable to accomplish our goals utilizing Veeam.

Incentivized

I have used several backup programs, I selected 2 just to be brief. The best thing I see with HYCU over Veeam is that it is much more difficult for an attacker if inside the network to gain access to the backups and objects saved in the backup storage. The best part about HYCU over Bacula is that it is much easier to use and more stable. The interface alone will save you from time and energy using other products

Incentivized

• Acronis has made our backup process much smoother.
• Less tech time needed to configure backups.
• Less tech time needed to restore backups.

Incentivized

• We have saved a few SQL issues and recovered data that could have been corrupted.
• Applications and files have a place in the cloud in case the need is there for other depts.
• Restoring across datacenters is possible with HYCU saving us time and money to do so.
