  • We love the daily status updates. It’s very simple and easy to use.
  • It’s super fast, better than anything we have used in the past.
  • Honestly it was very easy to use, if I had any recommendations it would be to make the recovery process a little more intuitive. We still love the product.

  • You can administer all of your backups from a single browser-based GUI. No matter what the instance of Acronis is - local agent install on a physical device .... a VM on a host or even an Apple device. Alerts can be set for errors or warnings for admins to act upon if necessary.
  • Restores can be undertaken in a number of ways which is really useful. You can restore a whole VM to the same host or a new one. You can convert physical machines to a VM and a very useful feature is the ability to dive into the backup file and pluck individual files and thus restore single files quickly - good for file servers etc.
  • One of the requirements was to have the ability to replicate the backup files to an off-site location - This can be set up easily within the backup plan eliminating the need (for us at least) for tape-based solutions.
  • Stability - Although we have seen improvements in the recent later releases, we did experience stability issues in the not too distant past.
  • We have seen regular warning messages whilst attempting VM backups - "An error occurred while quiescing the virtual machine".
  • Upon contacting Acronis support - we were told this is a VMware issue...not much help. The resolution? Install the Acronis agent on the VM locally.
  • This creates a non-standard rollout across your estate. I do not know why this happens to one VM over another but it would be good to get this resolved.
  • We have a Linux appliance based Acronis solution. We have needed to contact Acronis support on a number of occasions for some support and the Acronis 1st level support teams are very much Windows based. They do not have much experience on the Linux appliance version of their system.
  • If you do go down the Linux platform with your Acronis - make sure you have sufficient in house Linux skills to maintain and perform upgrades.

  • It does incremental backups so I do not need to worry about not having enough space on my backup drive
  • It schedules when the office is closed so does not tie up the computer during the day.
  • Advises if backup was successful and if not, where the error lies.
  • I had a hard drive error previously on my computer and the backup corrects and does not bring forward any corrupted files.
  • Easier set up for people not very computer savy, and unable to express backup path correctly in computer terms. Program finds all it needs for set up.

  • Backs up entire server.
  • Easy to install, easy to configure.
  • Flexible with types of media it uses to backup.
  • Does not recognize/individually backup MySQL Server software. Therefore, with my server if the database goes bad the entire server has to be restored. Apparently, Acronis only recognizes name-brand products.
  • Interface seems to be web-based. If the internet is down, the server cannot be restored.

  • The user interface is intuitive and user-friendly.
  • The program allows for backup of PC and server-class machines, including those running Oracle.
  • The web-based interface is helpful for me to check backup statuses at remote locations.
  • It took some research to know which versions were required for our server-class machines
  • Servers using Oracle need special configuration, which did take some time to understand
  • Procuring Acronis through distributors added another layer of complexity in the purchase process.

  • Acronis emails the administrator update every day on critical errors, warnings, and failures.
  • The backup is smooth and quick.
  • Very little processing resources are used from the operating system.
  • The 24 hour support is great!
  • All the technicians are very knowledgeable about the use of the Acronis product.
  • I would like to see Acronis provide virtual server operations in the product. In other words, every aspect of the Acronis product is cloud-based.
  • Supply the customer with full virtual backup, bring all functions to the cloud. No onsite hardware.

  • Hardware agnostic restore is huge. A lot of imaging and restore products have to be one for one on hardware. Acronis is great because it doesn't.
  • Granular recovery of files like shadow copy so you don't have to restore a whole drive for one missing item. This has saved our bacon more than once.
  • Deduplication really helped us save our storage (which we are limited on).
  • Some of the setup is not intuitive.
  • Updates for the software could be done in a better manner.
  • Cloud storage restore is slow.

  • The ability to make complete backups quickly.
  • The ability to restore to dissimilar hardware for emergency recovery.
  • It works with both servers and workstations.
  • Great for disaster recovery especially in a small business.
  • Restoring to dissimilar hardware sometimes has quirks if you need additional drivers. It would be nice if you could attach the needed drivers to the backup when restoring.
  • Would be nice if they could find a way to make a complete offline backup of the mobile devices so you can restore a device to the state is was when when the backup occurred including the operating system.
  • Everything we already need is supported.

  • Imaging workstations, servers, laptops
  • Data Backup
  • In an emergency, it's a great tool to take a snapshot of the system, bootable or not, and use that for recovery.
  • There's too many versions. I suggest plying that down to just one, maybe two.
  • It can be confusing for some
  • Lower resource usage

  • Central management of all your backup endpoints.
  • Not a big fan of Acronis cloud. Have not used in a few years but had issues in the past pushing large amounts of data to it.
  • Licensing can get confusing on some of the server products.
  • Sometimes we run into VSS issues with the system.

  • Acronis is very simple to install, implement, and maintain.
  • Acronis is a solid solution which we find trustworthy.
  • The pricing structure works well for the way in which have chosen to implement Acronis.
  • Acronis was not ultimately chosen as our enterprise DR solution.
  • We felt that it lacked the features necessary for our purposes. Specifically, an intuitive and centralized management console for DR across the entire organization.
  • We felt that it worked well for backing up a single machine, but had concerns about using it for the entire network.

  • In emergencies, having to take a quick image of a damaged laptop (not the hdd) and re-deploy to a new laptop is quick and easy.
  • The full software suite is truly reliable when you need to create images of external drives for later use.
  • Sometimes can be cumbersome when there is an error and it does not give you as much detail as others.
  • Installation of the full suite can sometimes take an extreme amount of time to complete.
  • Can not fully pick and choose which areas you would like to install.
