Acronis Cyber Protect

Backup, security and cloud DR for service providers from a Swiss vendor

Overview

Acronis is a Swiss company, founded in Singapore and headquartered in Schaffhausen, that reports more than 750,000 business customers and more than 21,000 service providers in over 150 countries[9]. Its business product, Acronis Cyber Protect, combines full-image and file-level backup with security functions in one product, an approach that distinguishes it from backup-only tools and places it near endpoint protection products.

Cyber Protect is sold in three editions. Standard is intended for environments with fewer than five devices or Windows Server Essentials; Advanced adds endpoint detection and response (cloud deployment only), malware scanning of backups and safe recovery; Backup Advanced adds support for KVM, Nutanix AHV and Red Hat Virtualization plus Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace backup[10]. A licence is required for every machine or physical host, with separate Server, Windows Essentials and Workstation licence types, and each licence includes Acronis cloud storage: 250 GB per server or virtual host, 150 GB per Windows Essentials licence, 50 GB per workstation and 40 GB per public cloud VM[10]. Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace backup are sold in five-seat packs on one-, three- or five-year terms[10]. List prices were not displayed on the purchasing page consulted; the company directs buyers to a price configurator.
