Acronis Files Connect & Acronis Cyber Files (discontinued) vs. Nasuni

Acronis Files Connect tools are easy to access and the management of different project documents and storage of all the business files on one platform is perfect. Organizing files on Acronis Files Connect is very easy for all users and the training guidance that Acronis Files Connect team provides is an effective and excellent support desk.

It is great for organizations that do not want to be limited to the size of their storage appliance. Since the hardware is used primarily as a cache, there is no cap of the amount of data. Anything beyond the cache size gets stored in the cloud, and Nasuni has advanced logic that ensures the most active data stays in cache, so performance is not impacted.

• Easy files access with the Acronis Files Connect.
• High functionalities on easy file arrangement.
• The reporting features are the best.

Incentivized

• The management console is extremely simple and easy to navigate, making common tasks easy to do.
• Our storage appliance is configured to snapshot data several times an hour, making the risk of data loss very low.
• Data restores are very intuitive, and take seconds to initiate regardless of whether it is one file or 300GB of data. We have successfully restored many Gigs of data in minutes.

Incentivized

• Would love some type of remote administration (web interface, Mac app, whatever)
• Some logging level between "OH GOD, TOO MUCH" and the "mediocre" default

Incentivized

• Better analytics when issues arise.
• Better onboarding documentation.
• Real-time monitoring.

As I mentioned, the user interface is amazing and straight forward. It's very easy to learn how to configure and restore files. I would like a bit more reporting, especially in terms of live reporting and monitoring. The support is great when you have a question on how to do something, which helps with usability.

Again, it may have a little to do with the size and speed of your own environment, but we've been nothing but pleased with the speed of access of the files - even pulling old files from the cloud storage. Recovery of huge and many data files is a bit slow if you don't have the specs of the filer up to snuff.

I am not sure if we looked into any other cloud storage applications or software. But I do highly recommend Nasuni. If you have feedback, they actually listen. We even got to meet with the founder and he listened to a lot of our feedback. Whether or not they will implement and suggestions, having that listening ear is refreshing.

Incentivized

• Been a great ROI. We wouldn't be able to function without it, given how many Mac users we have.

Incentivized

• User satisfaction.
• Satisfaction from the leadership.
• Huge amount of time saved when restoring files.
