User Testimonials
	Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud	AWS Backup
Likelihood to Recommend	The endpoint protection is fantastic. Being able to recover a single file on the fly has saved many customers hours of frustration. Long term recovery of O365 data has worked well. I bit more difficult but not Acronis Advanced Backup issue, it has been MS issues. Nothing beats on premise backup / recovery speed but, when it is not available, Acronis Advanced Backup gets the job done for bare metal recovery. Ken Johnson President Read full review	AWS [Backup] does what it intends on doing. AWS [Backup] is very fast, however, for that speed, you'll end up with a high bill at the end of the month. Compared to competitors, AWS [Backup] is a lot more expensive than others. However, I believe it makes it up in it's versatility - there's no company more compatible with others than AWS. Incentivized Matt Hoffman Chief Executive Officer Read full review
Pros	Local backup to local encrypted and protected hard drives Cloud backups of files, folders, or entire machines Vulnerability assessment of systems Antivirus and content filtering Remote control of systems Integration with Connectwise and other RMM and MSP tools Replacement that's better than Dropbox or Google drive Incentivized GK Guy Kittelson CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	Centralized management - single pane of glass to manage backups for multiple AWS services. Encryption - integrates with KMS to encrypt backup data at rest and in transit. Cross Account management - manage backups across multiple AWS accounts with AWS organizations. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	They do not sell their product directly, so a reseller is needed - or third party website to process payments for them in order to download the product suite. They have done away with stand-alone software purchases, and have moved to a yearly subscription-based model. It's affordable, but you never truly "own" the software now. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Lacks built-in features for granular recovery, such as files or DB records, without restoring the entire backup. Complexity - managing backups with multiple rules and resources, with limitations on the number of tags and resources per plan. D/R recovery orchestration - does not offer advanced D/R orchestration. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	They recently raised the pricing for backup usage and our price has nearly doubled. It is still lower than some other vendors, but we might review other options before renewing next year. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	Overall, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is powerful and effective. The platform has user-friendly features and a centralized dashboard that simplifies management across multiple clients. This platform integrates backup, recovery, and security features effectively, all in one. It makes our lives easier. Josue Ruiz Business Development Manager Read full review	Overall because I can sell it white labeled and use my white labeled software like CloudBerry and the native backup apps on my synology NAS servers to store things in real time and do duplication and disaster recovery directly to it was game changing for my client in the advertising world they are never down now. Incentivized Daniel Cauley Co-Owner Read full review
Support Rating	Support has been helpful when we have had to reach out. We have not had to contact support that much so I do not have much feedback on them. I met the support team at the Cyber Summit and they are all very nice, smart individuals. Incentivized JN jesse nanes Systems Engineer Read full review	Support for AWS Backup is by Amazon itself so it is solid as always.

Alternatives Considered	Sophos has an excellent product. Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, though provides the true integration with other security products and 3rd part systems that we need.

Brent Sadler President/CEO Read full review	Linode requires a minimum data purchase for their S3 storage solution. While the convenience of being able to mount the drive directly is great, it isn't the best for small amounts of data for our different customers. I initially tried there other backup solution but they couldn't guarantee where the data would be stored in relation to the server we were using. The risk being an incident in our near our server could result in the loss of our backup as well. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	We have been able to further develop our customerbase and and more MSP as our partners Overall the recurring revenue coming from Acronis, will help us to increase revenue and margin, without investing in new hardware and save on energy-cost. It is time consuming to implement Acronis into our system and train our employees. With this there is also cost involved, but we believe in the long-term investements we make here. Barber Brinkman Sr Business Developer Read full review	With AWS Backup we can restore a resource in minutes With AWS Backup we don't need to worry if a resources is being backed up or not, the plan you can configure can cover all resources With AWS Backup you can plan for Disaster Recovery as it lets you copy the backup to other account or region Incentivized Iván García Consultant Read full review
