Significantly enhance your clients’ data protection

Benefit from backup capabilities enhanced with cyber protection – with more than 20 workload types, you can protect your clients’ data confidently. Discover what backup and data protection capabilities you gain with Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud. Harness the power of one solution, one agent, and one console to deliver the comprehensive cyber protection your clients seek.

Enable quick and easy recovery with minimal IT intervention

Speed up the recovery process of multiple workloads and minimize IT efforts by offloading the recovery to the end-users. By enabling the one-click recovery in the protection plan, you can easily empower non-technical end-users with a simplified, automated recovery of an entire workload.

Achieve near-zero RPOs with continuous data protection

Confidently offer your clients the data protection and rapid recovery options they want and need. By adding Advanced Backup to Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, you can eliminate downtime while simultaneously protecting clients from advanced threats. Continuous data protection captures and backs up changes made in real-time from business-critical applications so no data is lost.

Gain complete visibility into your clients’ protection

  • Help your clients meet compliance and regulatory requirements by ensuring that all of their workloads are protected – from data to applications to systems. Acronis’ data backup software enables you to easily scan clients’ machines to identify unprotected files, applications, and workloads to proactively protect their data.

Reduce the CPU/RAM consumption with off-host data processing

Reduce the load on your client’s workloads by moving backups replication, validation, retention and conversion into VM operations to another machine. These operations can be scheduled independently from the protection plan, e.g. on a separate schedule.

Additionally, you can ensure consistency and recoverability of backups with MI-assisted validation via boot screenshot analysis. The screenshots are auto-analyzed by an AI/MI engine, eliminating the need for any user interaction.

Support even more workloads

In addition to supporting Windows, Linux KVM, Mac, VMware, Hyper-V, Red Hat Virtualization, Citrix XenServer, Oracle, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Azure, and Amazon EC2 included in Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud, adding Advanced Backup extends that support to:
  • Microsoft SQL Server clusters
  • Microsoft Exchange clusters
  • MariaDB
  • MySQL
  • Oracle DB
  • SAP HANA

4. Demonstrate your value to clients with powerful widgets

Enable ongoing reporting to clients with powerful widgets, that demonstrate the value of your DLP services. Provide service technicians and clients with visibility into blocked sensitive data flows; most active data senders; users with most blocked data transfers; and all sensitive data transfers split by category (blocked, allowed or justified).

New: Geo-redundant cloud storage

Acronis Geo-redundant Storage is designed to enhance your backup strategies by adding an extra layer of protection. Back up your data to an Acronis data center and have it automatically replicated to another remote Acronis location in the background.

Enhanced Data Protection

If one data center faces an outage, your data remains accessible from another location, guaranteeing uninterrupted access.

Compliance and Security

Geo-redundant storage helps meet regulatory requirements by ensuring that data is securely stored across diverse geographic locations.

Cost-Efficiency

Leveraging geo-redundant storage reduces the risk and associated costs of data loss, ensuring that your valuable data is always safe and accessible.

Enhanced protection for workloads

Continuous data protection

Ensure that users don’t lose work that is in-progress by defining a list of critical applications that they frequently use. Acronis’ agent monitors every change made in the listed applications and continuously backs it up in real-time, so no data is lost.

Data protection map and compliance reporting

Guarantee that critical data is protected for compliance reporting, with the data protection map. Use the automatic data classification to track the protection status of important files, folders, and workstations. If they are not protected, an alert is created so you can protect your clients’ critical data.

Application cluster backup and restore

Ease the IT administrative burden with built-in capabilities to easily backup and restore Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft SQL Server, and Oracle DBMS Real Application clusters. This easy to preform backup for service providers helps you quickly and easily protect multiple workload with one solution.

SAP HANA backup

Strengthen SAP HANA database protection with consistent, script-based, disk-level backups that simplify management and do not require any SAP HANA expertise. If a recovery is needed, you can perform image-based backup for your clients’ SAP HANA database and all the data associated with it, including application configurations.

Expand your services with advanced protection packs

Add other powerful components to strengthen your services even further with advanced protection packs and unique cyber protection capabilities. Control your costs by paying only for the functionalities your clients need.

Frequently Asked Questions

I signed up for a trial. Where can I download the backup agents?

You first need to create a customer and an account for them. Once that is done, you can either log in as that customer or, in the Account management console, select the customer to manage their backups. This will bring you to the Backup management console where you can download the backup agent.

1. Resource usage is relative to the system specifications and a number of other factors, such as disk speed, disk size, available bandwidth, etc. By default, the Acronis backup process runs on low priority, with the operating system dynamically throttling its resources.

2. On modern servers and workstations, the CPU usage is typically around 3-4% and RAM consumption will be up to 500 MB with CPU spikes during the snapshot phase.

Acronis provides a hardware-independent software solution that can work with almost any hardware on industry-standard protocols like SMB and NFS. Acronis can also support any block-based storage, as long as it’s supported by the operating system.

In the backups section of the backup portal:

  • Select Add Location
  • Select a Network folder and enter the network path

We also have online documentation

This will depend on the size and performance of the hard disk, the amount of data changed, and the available bandwidth. Testing needs to be done, but the minimum threshold is 10 minutes.

We recommended you perform agentless backup for Hyper-V guest VMs, unless the VM needs to have ransomware protection and application-aware backups. Then, installing a Windows application agent is required.

1. Acronis backup agents support deduplication, in archives, for a single machine. Any new duplicated files will be skipped and not backed up.

2. Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud does not use a centralized deduplication server as the client’s data can be encrypted and containerized for security purposes.

Compression rates vary depending on the type of data but generally, you can expect around 30-40% compression unless the data is exclusively media files.

Yes, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud and its services use encryption on all levels.

Acronis Active Protection is an advanced anti-ransomware technology. Completely compatible with the most common anti-malware solutions, our artificial-intelligence-based technology actively protects all of the data on your systems, including documents, media files, programs, Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud files, and more. It can detect and deflect attacks, and restore impacted data. For more information, review this guide in the Knowledge Base.

Granular recovery can restore individual items from the mailbox: a single email, contact, or calendar item.

Bare metal restores can be done by booting the target machine using bootable media, point to the backup repository for the image file. (Refer to: https://www.acronis.com/en-us/support/documentation/BackupService/index.html#42056.html).

The destination VM needs to have an OS pre-installed with the Acronis agent. The restoration will then be done using either P2V or V2V. It’s not possible to use bootable media in Azure/Google/Amazon.

Yes. It’s possible to restore a disk image to a smaller drive if the smaller drive has enough space to accommodate the occupied space of the larger disk (e.g. if you have a 200 GB disk with 100 GB of space used, you can transfer an image of this disk to a 150 GB drive, but not to an 80 GB disk).

This process is done in two stages:

  • Creation of the initial backup on external media, please refer to the online documentation.
  • Sending the data, which can be done through physical shipment, also described in this Knowledge Base article, or upload via WAN from an alternative location using a special tool.

MSP backup solutions enable managed service providers to deliver backup services to their clients.

Yes, the Advanced Backup pack is available to managed service partners using Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud. The Advanced Backup pack enables service providers to extend the cloud backup capabilities their clients need to proactively protect their data, including continuous data protection, extended backup support, one-click recovery, and more.

Cloud storage is the most flexible and cost-effective way to back up critical files and programs. Cloud backup solutions help isolate data from local device failures, malware attacks or natural disasters. However, experts recommend that you follow the 3-2-1 rule: make three copies of every piece of important data; store that data in two different formats; and keep one off-site copy.
