Likelihood to Recommend Overall we are happy with what Acronis is offering us, both as a use and a Value Add Resellers. The fact that there is one portal to onboard customers and select services is exactly what we were looking for. Now we are working on the Multi Tenant version, so we can also White Label Acronis towards our customerbase. We have not yet found any scenario's where Acronis can not offer any benefits. We do hear that the pricing for the storage is often to high versus competition. This applies to the Acronis data center storage, yet also the structure of Workload/per TB combination towards other Cloud vendors. (mainly the 3 largest Hyper Scalers) Compared to other Cloud storage solutions, these cost should be lower, so it will be easier to explain to customers to come and join Acronis in the cloud, instead of doing local back-ups or use solutions like DropBox, BackBlaze, PureStorage, Wasabo Hot Cloud Storage, Cloudian and more.
Read full review FortiClient is really well suited for providing remote employees super quick access to a local network without needing much technical know-how. The virus scanning and web-blocking is also really great at making sure to keep the spam, ads, and other malicious web connections at bay. I have not run into any specific scenario that FortiClient has not been well suited - All of the scenarios in which I have used FortiClient have all functions really well for me.
Read full review Pros Prevents bad things from getting onto PCs and Macs Offsite and Offline backups make recovery a breeze (and a certainty!) Excellent sales and technical support Innovative company, constantly adding new features and capabilities Read full review [FortiClient] splits the traffic very well. For example, when users connect a VPN to the office they are connecting to the internal system which uses VPN traffic. If users access the public internet they use the internet traffic, but [Fortinet] does not route this traffic back to the office. Read full review Cons We would like a more robust remote control solution with more emphasis on unassisted system control and management When adding client systems, we have to be logged onto the console as the client, it would be nice to able to do that from the reseller account We wish the file sharing solution was less expensive or allowed for local storage and sharing Read full review font way too small on login, unable to select an option, for example, to see each letter of password as typed promotes errors at login login errors and failure rate extremely high as [reported] by all our physicians and other providers: not infrequently one will have to return to office after hours in order to complete charts or access charts to answer patient after hours questions frequent disconnects in spite of excellent internet signal unacceptable interruptions in patient care Read full review Likelihood to Renew Because the software is very simple and easy to use, very efficient, and has a stable connection that allows the user to perform tasks without problems. Also, this software does not need to be configured by IT technicians, since it comes with a very developed and understandable set up guide.
Read full review Usability The Cyber Protect portal is very intuitive and easy to use for anyone with some knowledge of IT systems.
Read full review Usability is pretty solid. It is not as easy to manage and adjust if you are not a trained IT professional, which requires smaller companies without IT staff to reply on outsourced IT partners. The user interface is a bit clunky, but you can generally figure out what you need to do, it just takes a little bit of time and effort.
Read full review Support Rating FortiClient is a security suite with which we can keep our equipment well-protected. And it is that in a system like Windows, which is always the target of all kinds of attacks, it is not enough to have a simple antivirus.

FortiGate with FortiClient can take a little more time, but the feature set is much richer. We use Meraki MX is a few offices, but are now converting many of them over to the FortiClient and Fortinet suite of security devices and software.
Read full review Return on Investment Positive, we can sell special services to our focus market SMB, the result is higher revenues. Positive, services simple to deploy and deliver, better ROI. Positive, the profits. Read full review The free version of FortiClient VPN works great. The fact that we have to pay for any version beyond 6.0.3 to connect to our firewalls that we already pay for licensing on is a little silly. There is some support overhead with our clients and users to keep the software updated since it doesn't upgrade to new major versions automatically. Read full review ScreenShots
