History

Acronis was founded by Serguei Beloussov , Ilya Zubarev, Stanislav Protassov and Max Tsyplyaev in

2001 as a separate business unit within SWsoft . [6] In 2003, Acronis was spun off as a separate

company. [7] The company moved from a focus on disk partitioning and boot loader software to a

focus on backup and disaster recovery software based on disk imaging technology.

In 2006, SWsoft partnered with Acronis to resell Acronis True Image Server for SWsoft Plesk 8.1

control panel software. The software is standalone and works with other control panels, which

enables service providers to offer backup and recovery capabilities with dedicated hosting packages.

[8]

In September 2012, Acronis acquired GroupLogic , Inc., which allowed Acronis to integrate mobile

devices, including Apple, into enterprise environments through acquisition of software that formed

Acronis Access Advanced. The acquisition expanded Acronis’ data protection on mobile devices.

GroupLogic gained access to Acronis’ customer base. [9]

In May 2013, co-founder and Board Director, Serguei Beloussov, returned as CEO after working on

other ventures. [10] In December that same year, Acronis announced the launch of an official research

and development wing, Acronis Labs. [3]

Acronis won the Mobility Product of the Year award at the Network Computing Awards in 2014. [11] In

2014, Acronis acquired BackupAgent, a cloud backup company, and nScaled, a disaster recovery

software company. [6]

The Global Partner Program through Acronis was launched in March 2015. The program gives

partner companies access to the Acronis AnyData Engine. [12] Also in 2015, Acronis won the

ChannelPro Readers’ Choice Award for Best Backup and Disaster Recovery Vendor. [13] In July 2015,

Acronis announced a partnership with ProfitBrick to make Acronis Backup Cloud available for

ProfitBrick’s cloud computing platform. [14]

Software

Acronis develops backup, disaster recovery, secure file access, sync and share, and partitioning

software for the home, and small to medium-sized enterprises. Its backup software includes Acronis

True Image which uses full-system image backup technology. [15] The Acronis Cloud platform includes

backups, disaster recovery, and file sync and share for a set of cloud applications which are

delivered by service providers. [16] [17]

Acronis Backup and Acronis Backup Advanced are a disk-based backup and recovery programs.

[18] Aside from backup software, Acronis also created Acronis Disk Director which is a shareware

application that partitions a machine and allows it to run multiple operating systems, [19] Acronis Snap

Deploy which creates a standard configuration to easily organize new machines, [20] Acronis Access

Advanced which secures access to files that are synced between devices, [21] and Acronis Access

Connect, [22] which is designed for Mac clients and runs on Windows servers. [23] Acronis Data

Protection Platform includes backup, disaster recover, and secure file sync and share.​
