User Testimonials
	Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud	Spanning 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	The only issue we have is when we remove the user from the integrated AD group we need to manually go back and remove the licensing, but there is the option to have archived accounts as well for temporary holds in case we want to disable the account in 365/AD, but need to hold on to the backups for a little longer. Incentivized Tim Roberts IT Director 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	Perpetual email and file backups. No limits on backup volume, capacity or file types. Excellent Management Console for Administrative users. End-user access available for self-management. Easy to enable and disable various accounts for backup. Easy to restore emails and files from one account to another. Incentivized William Reese CIO 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	Thus far, Spanning has completely fulfilled all of our backup needs, and we are completely satisfied. While we haven't needed technical support yet, we were told that this is conducted via email rather than via phone. JP Geygan Vice President 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	It was hands down, one of the easiest solutions to implement overall and has some of the best features also compared to other similar products from many SaaS backup companies. We also integrated the Dark Web monitoring too and it has helped us secure accounts we didn't know had issues, so has improved our security posture too. Incentivized Tim Roberts IT Director 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	I would like a retention option on the data, but since this feature does not currently exist, I give it a 9. Everything has met our standards and needs and we are now freed up from the manual efforts it was taking for backing up Salesforce using the out-of-the-box features of Salesforce.

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	No longer dedicating a resource to manual efforts. Less work and money if disaster recovery is needed compared to Salesforce.
