### "Acronis Backup Solution "

December 23, 2020

5.0

Backing up files , databases and the vms has never been easier. The mulitple functionalities show great value for money.

Pros

Acronis Cyber backup has easy initial setup and many agents for integrating various platforms and operating systems. It can backup files, databases and the entire virtual machines.

Cons

The cloud backup feature is limited to Acronis Cloud, and if would be nice to see other Cloud providers platforms , be available to use.

Alternatives considered

Reason for choosing Acronis Cyber Protect

This software shown us a great confidence as a backup solution.

### "Good product"

October 10, 2017

4.0

Pros

It's a very simple product to use and provides a great imaging platform for a low cost. Overall does a good job at backups of individual desktops.

Cons

Limited to desktop backup. Not a good piece of software in a VM environment. Images can be very large and does not offer compression.

### "Expensive, but effective."

February 12, 2018

4.0

Pros

Acronis is very good for what it does -- it takes backups quickly; the backups are easy to manage, and it offers all of the basic features you'd expect if you came from a legacy solution like BackupExec.

Cons

Sometimes... it just acts weird. I've had to have support come in and run scripts against our backup database several times in the last few years, because it just gets in a weird funk (for example, showing "next start" for some backups as being in the past, or perpetually showing a task as "running" even though it completed weeks ago. Support is quick to help, though, and solves the problem every time.

February 5, 2023

Pros

Affidabilità e praticità nell'uso, possibilità di attivare altre funzioni di sicurezza.

### "Great image software"

March 5, 2020

5.0

This has been very beneficial to use with all the laptops and servers we need to image and backup. Switched from Symantec Ghost and it was a very good move

Pros

We have been using this for awhile now and love it's use and that it's very user friendly. We backup and restore all of our images using Acronis and haven't been disappointed

Cons

Switched from Symantec Ghost and haven't found any cons to this software. It's more user friendly and been great to work with

### "Ideal Backup for any size of Business"

July 19, 2019

5.0

It does what it says. It's a great tool if you know how to do stuffs using it.

Pros

The thing I love most is the cross platform support of Acronis Backup. Also what it has to offer is incredible. Backup process is very quick and offers lot of options to select from.

Cons

Setup and initial process could be somewhat complex. Also you may need to get some idea on virtual servers before proceed.

### "Absolutely amazing"

March 26, 2019

5.0

From single machines with a incremental backup, to a full server farm with disaster recovery. It's that good.

Pros

Acronis Backup is super scalable. Flexible. Easy to use. And has great reporting abilities.

Cons

Nothing to dislike other than the hard limit of 100MB for 'dowloads' rather than recoveries but I hear they're looking into this further on into the year.

### "Fast restoration of the most important business data and information"

August 27, 2019

5.0

Since the use of this software has been implemented, our information is kept secure and backed up so that in the event of any failure of one of our servers we no longer have to worry because we only have to go from anywhere to the cloud and thus restore that information to may our business continue to stand.

Pros

I love Acronis Backup, since it is a software that allows you to quickly restore commercial and personal information, it is also easy to use and beyond restoring and supporting data, it also protects them against ransomware attacks what really It gives us peace of mind because we can not only back up our data but also protect it, which is why I consider it a really complete and quite flexible software, since it offers its users a free 30-day trial, and is also compatible with Linux systems and Windows

Cons

More than upset I consider it a suggestion, it would be ideal if your interface could be improved to make it much more modern.

### "Buon software ma migliorabile"

October 20, 2022

4.0

Pros

Facilità di pianificazione e installazione

Cons

impossibile avviare manualmente i backup da pc ma possibile solo da console, i servizi si stoppano frequentemente all'aggiornarsi di windows rendendo impossibile cosi l'avvio di acronis e il relativo backup giornaliero

### "Constant Issues"

September 28, 2020

2.0

My experience with Acronis started out great. No issues getting our workstations backing up to our various backup plans for the first year. We've been struggling to get our devices backing up constantly for several months. Customer support has been unable to solve our error messages.

Pros

The ability to see the device's last connection and IP address helps me determine whether their backup plan needs to be switched for a day or so. We have a lot of users that move from site to site.

Cons

Constant issues with registering the deployed agents, applying backup plans and using our licenses.

### "Metti al sicuro i tuoi dati!"

October 24, 2022

4.0

Pros

Acronis permette di mettere al sicuro i propi dati con backup configurati ad hoc a seconda delle propie esigenze. Personalmente uso Acronis per la creazione di backup di macchine virtuali.La configurazione del backup è molto intuitiva basta avere un minimo di nozioni in materia.In caso di fail over della macchina viene rapidamente attivata la macchina di backup.

Cons

Unica pecca il imite di tempo forse troppo esiguo nel quale la macchina di backup può rimanere accesa prima che vengano applicate magiorazioni di prezzo.

### "The best backup software for your business."

June 5, 2019

5.0

Acronis has proved to be the best backup solution on the market, and i've tested a bunch of other software before start using Acronis. Can't complain about nothing related to the software. Support is good, documentation is excelent, usability is perfect.

Pros

As a certified professional, Acronis has been to me the best backup software on the market. It's just not because of the functionalities. It's because how they works. The backup and restore processs are flawless, bare metal recovery are incredible reliable, universal restore works like a charm. Every single feature works very well.

Cons

Price. Acronis is an expensive solution compared to others in the market. I think they should change their licencing method.

### "Favorite Backup Software"

September 15, 2018

5.0

Pros

Acronis Backup has worked great when I needed to make disk image backups of PCs and for recovering from hard drive failure. It offers a ton of features and works better than any of the other backup software I've used over the years.

Cons

It can be difficult deciding what version of the software you might need. You might be tempted to go for the advanced version (more expensive) of the software but most people will likely be fine getting the standard version that still has a ton of awesome features.

### "Simple and effective for my budget"

April 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

The web based console to control all my backups in one place, and not having to remote onto a machine to start a backup or create a backup profile is great. The fact that incomplete backups can resume from where they left off, and i have the option of target locations to do backups

Cons

Initially the software upgrades can take quite long or not complete at all. Sometimes the seed load is seen as a separate backup, and the incremental backups take up more space than they should.

### "Having Acronis will ensure you get a bonus"

April 9, 2019

5.0

My overall experience with this software has been nothing but excellent. I can sleep rest assured that our back ups are completing and were able to restore if we need to.

Pros

Acronis By far the best most robust and easiest to use back up software I have ever used. The jobs are easy to set up in the restores our seamless.

Cons

I struggle to find any cons with the software. As compared to our previous backup software this is far and away the best. This is outperformed anything that comes to my mind.

### "Acronis backup - value for money"

December 3, 2019

4.0

Overall I think this software is every bit worth the money it costs because if you don't have a backup then it will definitely cost you more to recover the data and maybe you may never be able to recover the data. Apps can always be installed, but imagine losing all precious family photos and videos.

Pros

What I like most about this software is the capability to make hot backup. Not long ago, I had problems with my laptop and I had to send it to the manufacturer and since I had Acronis backup I was able to restore my data and apps after I got my laptop back. This software will save a lot of trouble and money in case something goes wrong with laptop/PC.

Cons

Sometimes, when doing cold backup this software does not recognize my external hard drive. There are also times when mounting a backup as a drive takes a few attempts which could be frustrating.

### "Good imaging backup"

April 17, 2019

4.0

I couldn't find a replacement for Acronis (so far) and I've tested several other imaging apps - while there are some that get close (Macrium), still Acronis rules in this field.

Pros

Acronis Backup allows aside the regular file/folder based backups also imaging. Basically you can create a "clone" of your entire hard drive and restore it in case something goes wrong. We also used this functionality to easily install the OS on multiple computers at once, instead of doing it one-by-one. Basically you install and configure one computer with everything you need, then you use Acronis to create an image disk and clone that onto the other computers. For file/folder backups there are other good alternatives, but for imaging Acronis is still the best choice.

Cons

Price is a bit steep, but if you need the full functionality then it's worth it. If you only need simple file/folder backups, even the included Windows Backup program will be enough.

### "Love this Program, Catch it on sale and its even better."

April 2, 2018

5.0

Pros

Acronis is very easy to use Has a great GUI Backup to and from pretty much anywhere you want Hardware independent restore is awesome, that feature alone has saved my bacon a few times. Backup an entire machine sector by sector with a flash drive.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any problem or complaint I have with Acronis, Its a great software with much needed options and it easy to use.

### "Best Option for Small Businesses"

December 14, 2018

4.0

Pros

My favorite feature of Acronis is the ability to restore single files that are accidentally deleted by a network user, rather than having to do a complete restore to accomplish that.

Cons

The initial backup of our two servers took several weeks. Acronis does not offer the option to do a physical backup and send it by carrier for the initial backup.

### "Great backup program for both physical and virtual servers"

March 9, 2018

4.0

Pros

Perfect for backing up from cloud platforms or even physical servers. Works as a great backup situation or even for imaging purposes. Support is always helpful and can work through issues over the phone or a virtual meeting.

Cons

Interface can be a little confusing at times with a lot of options on the screen, interface also freezes from time to time when using it.

### "Pure excellence"

April 17, 2018

5.0

Pros

The reliability and ease of use makes this one of the best peieces od software I've used. I've used the server and home PC offerings and have had great success with it running and restoring standard backups, restoring to other machines, and even doing P2V migrations with it.

Cons

I legitimately have none. All features are in line with my expectations and the process is great for such a product.

### "When used as an imaging software for system builds, it works great. Backup and restores are adequate"

February 24, 2018

5.0

Fast system deploys. Able to image a system including OS state before tinkering for troubleshooting purposes. Restores are fast if using the boot disk.

Pros

It is easy to use and performs well if the underlying operating system is the right and supported versions. Using the created boot disk and using that to image and build systems (older version) was easy.

Cons

The newer interfaces are horrible. I understand trying to make it more idiot proof but hiding away features under a simplistic interface means advanced users have to really dig to find the tools needed. Seriously, I've tried to get end users to get this software and do their own backups but it doesn't do much more than the built-in backup utilities so it would be better if they focused on more advanced tech users as their customer base.
