Acronis named the Best Cloud Data Security Solution in the G2 Summer 2026 Grid Report

Acronis Cyber Platform was ranked #1 in Cloud Data Security in the G2 Summer 2026 Grid Report, recognized for integrated data protection, security and recovery.

Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) was ranked #1 in the G2 Summer 2026 Grid® Report for Cloud Data Security, earning recognition as the best solution in the category. The result reinforces Acronis’ position as a cyber protection platform for organizations and service providers that need to safeguard cloud data, reduce ransomware risk, support compliance requirements and simplify management across distributed environments.

Why do customers value Acronis for cloud data security?

Customers seem to value Acronis for cloud data security because it combines backup, recovery and cybersecurity in one platform, which makes protection easier to manage and reduces the need for multiple tools. They also appreciate the ransomware protection, centralized control and the ability to recover data quickly when something goes wrong. For many users, especially MSPs and IT teams, the main advantage is having one solution that helps secure cloud data while keeping operations simple and efficient.

Acronis helps secure cloud workloads through backup and recovery, endpoint and workload protection, vulnerability assessment, patch management, ransomware defense, email security and security posture visibility. This integrated approach is particularly well-suited for MSPs managing Microsoft 365, cloud and virtualized environments, hybrid infrastructures and SMB to midmarket customers.

What customers are saying

“In my experience, Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) has been incredibly easy to use and integrates well with our existing systems. I love the anti-ransomware feature — it has given us peace of mind knowing that our data is protected. The centralized dashboard is also a huge plus, as it saves us time by letting us manage backups and security tasks from one place” said Cloud sales specialist in the small business segment.

“The best thing about Acronis Cyber Product Cloud is the flexibility it gives users to store data in the cloud as well as in their on-premises setup. Its agent works well in both environments; we just need to define the path for cloud storage or NAS storage at the time of plan creation.” said Cloud consultant in midmarket segment.

“Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) is an amazing tool for our organization. We also provide Acronis to our customers as both an on-prem and cloud backup solution. From a management standpoint, the UI is easy to use and the performance is second to none. Integrating this into our customers environments is extremely simple and easy to do which allow us to provide top notch support.” said Verified user in midmarket segment.

Why this matters for service providers and IT teams

The #1 ranking in Cloud Data Security matters because it reflects the way customers evaluate Acronis in real operational environments: by ease of use, support, scalability, visibility and the ability to reduce complexity. For MSPs, these qualities are especially important because every added tool can increase technician workload, training needs and service-delivery risk.
