That's why we're especially proud that customers ranked [Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud)](https://www.acronis.com/en/products/cloud/cyber-protect/) #1 in the [G2 Fall 2026 Server Backup Grid® Report](https://www.g2.com/reports/52d69c43-f07f-452d-8de7-1256fc51b1c8/preview?product=acronis-cyber-protect-cloud). Because G2 rankings are based on verified customer reviews, this recognition reflects the experiences of the service providers and IT teams that rely on Acronis to protect and recover critical workloads every day. Earning the top position again highlights the trust customers place in Acronis to help them minimize downtime, recover quickly and maintain business continuity when disruptions occur. ## Why our customers keep ranking us #1 in server backup Server backup is ultimately measured by one outcome: how quickly and reliably organizations can recover when systems fail, data is lost or cyberattacks disrupt operations. That's where customers consistently tell us Acronis delivers value. Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) helps organizations protect physical, virtual and cloud-based servers through a single platform, eliminating the need to manage multiple backup tools across different environments. Customers frequently highlight the flexibility of universal restore, which helps recover workloads to dissimilar hardware or different platforms when the original infrastructure is unavailable. In real-world recovery scenarios, that flexibility can significantly simplify disaster recovery planning and execution. Customers also value the benefits of an integrated cyber protection approach. Rather than managing backup, ransomware protection and disaster recovery through separate solutions, Acronis brings these capabilities together in a unified platform. AI-based anti-ransomware protection helps defend backup integrity, while disaster recovery capabilities help organizations restore operations more quickly following major incidents. By reducing tool sprawl and simplifying management, teams can focus on recovery instead of coordinating multiple products during a crisis. ## Why teams choose Acronis to protect their servers Modern server environments are increasingly distributed across on-premises infrastructure, virtual environments, cloud workloads and business-critical applications. Protecting these environments effectively requires more than backup alone. Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) combines backup, cybersecurity, disaster recovery and centralized management in a single solution. This integrated approach helps organizations reduce complexity while improving resilience. Instead of deploying and managing separate tools for backup and security, administrators can protect servers, monitor risks, manage policies and verify recoverability from a single console. For IT teams, this means greater confidence that recovery plans will work when needed. For service providers, it means fewer tools to manage, simplified operations and the ability to deliver comprehensive cyber protection services through one platform. Recovery testing, security monitoring, backup management and disaster recovery workflows can all be managed within the same environment, helping teams respond faster and operate more efficiently. Most importantly, organizations need assurance that critical servers can be restored quickly after hardware failures, ransomware attacks, accidental deletions or other disruptions. By combining prevention, protection, recovery and management capabilities, Acronis helps reduce downtime and support business continuity when every minute matters. ### What our customers are saying _“What I like best is having backup, protection, and email security all managed from one dashboard instead of juggling separate tools. Email security has been particularly useful for catching threats before they reach inboxes, and the dashboard makes it easy to monitor multiple servers and schedule backups without much manual work.”_ — said [System Engineer, Small Business Segment](https://www.g2.com/products/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud/reviews/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud-review-12070882) _“The centralised management gives us strong visibility across client sites, and it supports and integrates with a wide range of the products our customers rely on, including Microsoft 365 and SQL Server.”_ — said [Software Consultant, Small Business Segment](https://www.g2.com/products/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud/reviews/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud-review-12398875) _“It's the best platform for a backup solution for your server. It's just not a backup solution but also provides cyber protection, anti-malware, and anti-virus, and ransomware protection along with EDR.”_ — said [Verified User, Small Business Segment](https://www.g2.com/products/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud/reviews/acronis-cyber-protect-cloud-review-5431900) ## Why this recognition matters Organizations increasingly need more than traditional backup. When cyberattacks, infrastructure failures, or operational disruptions occur, they need confidence that critical systems can be recovered quickly and securely. Our #1 ranking in the Server Backup category reflects growing demand for solutions that combine backup, security, and recovery in a unified platform. By bringing these capabilities together, Acronis helps service providers and IT teams reduce complexity, improve resilience, and recover faster when incidents occur. ## What's next Being ranked #1 in the G2 Fall 2026 Server Backup Grid® Report is especially meaningful because it comes directly from customer feedback. But the most valuable proof point is how organizations use Acronis to protect critical infrastructure in real-world environments. For example, customers rely on Acronis Cyber Platform (formerly Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud) to consolidate backup, cybersecurity and recovery capabilities into a single platform, helping simplify operations while strengthening resilience. To see how service providers are applying this approach in practice, explore our customer success stories and case studies, including examples of organizations that have streamlined protection, accelerated recovery and improved operational efficiency. We’ll keep investing in resilient backup and fast recovery so our customers can bounce back from anything.
