Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud

Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud is a cloud-based platform covering backup, disaster recovery, cybersecurity and endpoint management, sold to managed service providers with a minimum monthly commitment model rather than published per-unit pricing. The platform offers image-based backup for servers and endpoints, application-aware backup for SQL, Exchange and SharePoint, backup for Microsoft 365 (Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams) and Google Workspace, offsite replication, instant recovery and disaster recovery capabilities, plus ransomware detection and protection. For security, it includes endpoint detection and response (EDR) with behavioural detection, managed detection and response (MDR) as an optional add-on, advanced email security with phishing filtering and data loss prevention, and security awareness training. The platform includes built-in remote monitoring and management (RMM) for patch management, remote access, software deployment and monitoring, plus professional services automation (PSA) capabilities and workflow automation. It supports Windows, macOS and Linux endpoints, virtual machines (vSphere, Hyper-V, Nutanix, Proxmox, Citrix and RHV), cloud services (AWS EC2, Azure), and runs entirely through a cloud console with no on-premises installation required. Acronis publishes no per-workload or per-user pricing; instead, MSPs configure a minimum monthly commitment tier as part of their service agreement, then use the price calculator on Acronis' site to estimate costs based on protected workloads and data storage. The platform offers a free trial for service providers and integrates with over 300 third-party tools including RMM platforms (NinjaOne, Datto RMM, N-central), PSA and documentation tools, and accounting systems. Acronis is based in Switzerland, and MSPs should note that security features such as EDR and MDR are add-on modules that may require additional licensing beyond the base backup and disaster recovery service tier.

Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud stands out for integrating backup, disaster recovery, and security into one console, which can simplify operations and billing for an MSP managing multiple point solutions. It suits MSPs of any size and those who want to offer security services (EDR, MDR, email security) alongside backup without using separate vendors. MSPs should confirm exact pricing with Acronis' sales team since per-workload costs are not published, and verify that EDR and MDR are included in or available as add-ons to your specific service tier. Compare against Datto BCDR and Veeam for backup features, and against SentinelOne or Crowdstrike for EDR capabilities if your MSP needs those as standalone products.
