User Testimonials
	Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud	Macrium Reflect
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	Macrium Reflect is one of the best partition backup applications available in the market. It can also clone drives in addition to making images of partitions and has a very useful feature of creating a bootable recovery drive for restoring partition(s) in case the OS is not booting. There are also different products for varying needs of the end user- Macrium Reflect Server, Workstation, etc. I have restored my system without any errors many times with Macrium.

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	Macrium Reflect ist easily manageable. Macrium Reflect backs up fast. Macrium Reflect accurately handles scheduled backups. Incentivized Chaim Moykopf Researcher 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	I can't think of anything which needs improvement at the moment. 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	There is a small learning curve in the beginning, but altogether a great tool for my purpose. Incentivized Chaim Moykopf Researcher 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	We have not been opening tickets for support from Macrium at the moment, only for licencing issues, but good attention and fast response by the support team. They respond pretty fast to our emails and fixed our issues giving us a good explanation of our case without any complications. Due to the good functionality of the software we have not opened a ticket for support in years. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
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. In addition, the ability to secure the backups and scan for issues is a great benefit. Brent Sadler President/CEO Read full review	Veeam offers Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows, a product we also install and use. It compares favorably with Macrium Reflect; however, for small firms and individual wanting an added cloud backup of their full hard drive, Macrium wins out in requiring less cloud storage space by a significant margin. ShadowProtect is a rock solid competitor with a higher price and no free version. It is highly dependable, but more complicated to install and set up. The number of technical issues and quality of technical support have ruled out Acronis products. MSP360 Backup has impressive technology, but we encountered issues with restore times and full drive image restores. Incentivized Wells Anderson CEO (Chief Executive Officer) 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.
