    Chose Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
    Acronis Cyber Backup is nice but not so extensive as Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365. I did test it after we deployed Veeam's product but didn't like it so much. It lacks the all-in enterprise features that can be seen right from the first start on Veeam Backup for …

    Chose Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
    Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is another good option similar to Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365. It provides better built-in Cyber Security features than Veeam's product. However, the Technical Documentation and Support of Veam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 seems much better …

    Chose Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365
    Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 rides the line of being overly complex and too restrictive very well. Acronis has far too many components for a small to medium business like us, whereas Arcserve requires interfacing with an unappealing graphical interface. Veeam Data Cloud …

    If you don't have to manage your client's email and their email archiver Acronis works very well. If you're looking for just a backup service for what's on a particular computer then Acronis is perfect. It is easy to use, so newcomers are not overwhelmed with features.It does not include as robust features as Barracuda and Cloudberry, but it does work well as just a backup.

    The implementation of their services is fairly simple and their engineers will assist in any issues that arise when you attempt to get the solutions implemented. One scenario we experienced in implementation is a server was not able to be backed up. The engineer logged onto our system on a remote support session and helped to diagnose why we were experiencing the issue. They ensured we were up and running again in a timely manner to remain covered on our backed up services.

    Pros
    Acronis
    • Image based backups. After the initial backup, the backups happen quite quickly. This allows for multiple backups per day.
    • We have different classes of data which requires different retention policies. Acronis makes that easy to manage.
    • Restoration can be done directly to hardware or to a VM. This makes it easy to migrate a physical server to a VM.

    • My CFO seemed to have lost a whole year of important emails. I simply restored them to his mailbox in a matter of minutes.
    • An employee left the company but an issue came up with a quote this person sent out. I could search his mailbox and got the quote as well as all communications from that customer.
    • It is nice to be able to search emails in various mailboxes without disturbing the user.
    • It is also nice to go back in time. Say they deleted those emails last month I can go back years if needed.

    Cons
    Acronis
    • Search function for restore points on boot media.
    • After upgrading to a newer build, some fixed issues may reappear.
    • Hard to cancel jobs, but it looks like version 16 is better on that. We have run version 16 for only a month.

    • Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 isn't 'multi geo' aware - this means we have to manually select resources to back up depending on their geo-location.
    • Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 doesn't backup Private Channels users create in a Team - there are workarounds for this but it would be nice if this just worked.

    We have renewed our subscription over the course of a few years now. We used to use Backup Exec and it was tedious and difficult to obtain our backups when needed. Acronis just fits our environment style and the way we prefer to do business and use our third party software.

    Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 just works so well and is so easy to use. I researched multiple options for Office 365 backup and none seemed to be as easy to setup and use as Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 and the pricing was very comfortable to us. I can't imagine any reason why we would change away from Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365.

    Usability
    Acronis
    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.

    While the product is rock-solid and only has errors when Microsoft changes things on their API side, the solution is at times too simplistic. The need to analyze and report on the data being stored is lackluster. The functionality and use of the product is a 10, but the niceties and features you would want in a product of this caliber are lacking.

    We have a lot of data, and pulling backups out of the store sometimes takes a bit of time - but this is within acceptable tolerances. I don't expect restores to be instantaneous, and I can't quantify if the speed is software or data repository.

    I only got one issue resolved for more than 20 cases open. The escalation is ineffective. Most of the time, I have the feeling that I know the solution better than the support technician. Overall, case management is time-consuming, as our resolution rate is really low

    Veeam Data Cloud support for Microsoft 365 is excellent (just like for Veeam Backup & Replication). It's easy to create a ticket in the support portal, and the support engineers respond quickly and accurately, usually within a few hours! Issues are resolved and/or investigated quickly.

    I don't have any real key 'insights' per say except that it wasn't difficult at all, and do not be afraid to dabble in its tools and settings. It is quite intuitive with built in common sense. I cannot say enough good things about our companies experience when using this backup software.

    We've looked at SolarWinds, Veritas, etc. but none of them had the right combination of features, price and ease of use when compared against Acronis and its ease of implementation, setup and recovery options. We didn't like the wait time for recovery with some of the others and being able to quickly get a machine back entirely was important to us.

    Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft 365 offered a straightforward, upfront billing model with no hidden storage fees.In contrast, Rubrik’s proposal emphasized enterprise-grade features like air-gapped backups, sensitive data monitoring, and zero-trust architecture—but came with a higher initial investment as well as higher recurring costs.

    Scalability
    Acronis
    The ability to back up multiple servers from one source is a great tool to have for businesses that have equipment in different locations on the same network with a variety of software data to back up such as SQL, Exchange or a Files Server. You can decide to purchase individual server licenses as well if you would like to keep the process separate or have multiple sites where your data is housed.

    Return on Investment
    Acronis
    • Every times you restore a file, you see the value and the ROI of backup.
    • Backup is a great protection against ransomware, you can always restore files that has been infected.
    • When you want to go back in previous version of files, it can be life saver.

    • The only real impact is from a compliance standpoint. Our company is expected at a regulatory level to be protecting our data and even though the tenant has little traffic there could still be some regulated data in there. We have to be able to tell an auditor that it's being backed up by an enterprise grade solution, and that's what VDC was intended for.
