Overall Satisfaction with Acronis Cyber Protect

Main business problems are secured data backups and Disaster recovery solutions. The Acronis Cyber Protect brings a whole range of solutions in these areas in an elegant manner: all integrated in a user friendly console, even the DR button which the most stunning capacity of Acronis Cyber Protect. And to finish, the cherry on the cake are the prices which are very competitive. It is our favorite solution for SMB.

Pros

  • Externalized data back-ups
  • Disaster Recovery for servers
  • Provide a user console to manage the whole suite of capacities

Cons

  • Getting in contact with sales or marketing persons
  • Explain the use cases of the solutions on the institutional web site
  • Lower the cost of the corporate back-up + DRP solution: we got more capacity/security for less €
Although the capacity range for the price is impressive, the access to the user console is not trivial and it is necessary to be guided for the first visits. And also since there a broad support of data storage technologies for back-ups, the connection process can be sometimes tricky, not surprisingly. It is why the Professionnal Services teams is so important at Acronis to help facilitate the installation processes.
Acronis Cyber Protect is usually the best choice for SMBs: it offers the widest range of functionalities for less €. On top of that, the principle of the console which gives access to all products is a nice differentiator, and the killer feature is the "DR" button!

A medium sized company has recently experienced a cyber attack. They have been able to restore their IT thanks to externalized back-ups, but it took 3 weeks to restore all the users' services. After the crisis, the CIO now thinks they need a DRP in order to improve their preparation to cyber risks. It is time to talk with him about DRP preparation and to meet Acronis Cyber Protect!
