Acronis

Acronis backup and cyber protection, set up and supported for Indian businesses.

Acronis combines backup, disaster recovery, anti-malware, and endpoint management in a single platform, so ransomware recovery does not depend on stitching several tools together.

Rua Technologies helps businesses and managed service providers choose the right Acronis edition, deploy agents across servers, endpoints, and Microsoft 365, and keep backup policies tested and renewals tracked.
