Acronis Cyber Backup Advanced Virtual Host

Acronis Backup is simple and fast backup solution to protect your VMware vSphere VMs and hosts.

With Acronis Cyber Protect - Backup Advanced Virtual Host you can back up virtualization hosts and all VMs running on them, including running applications (Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and Active Directory).
The edition is the direct successor to Acronis Backup Advanced Universal License, but also replaces the editions for individual hypervisors (VMware, Hyper-V, Citrix XenServer, Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization and Oracle VM) of the previous version. Additionally, the Advanced Editions' advanced features, such as deduplication or support for tape drives and clusters, are included.
