Acronis Cyber Protect
formerly Acronis Cyber Backup

Recently, we wrote about how data protection vendors force you to choose between an on-premises solution and a software-as-a-service solution. In one of our recent blog posts, we compared how choosing a backup solution should be just like choosing a car. If you want a vehicle that is good for commuting but can also accommodate off-road activities, you should buy a vehicle that does both. Fortunately, the automobile industry offers many types and models of cars to accommodate every consumer’s need. The car industry is flexible. Unfortunately, the majority of vendors in the data protection industry are not.

Today, many of these vendors want to dictate the backup infrastructure that you should use. Some claim that on-premises software is the right answer. Others force you into a backup-as-a-service alternative. Ugh...

But let’s consider a different alternative. Look at these two user interfaces:
