Case Study: XcellHost achieves 50% faster backups and replaces four data protection products with Acronis Backup Cloud

XcellHost Raises Data Protection Efficiency by 50 Percent After Acronis Install

XcellHost, a leading Indian hosting provider with more than 25 virtual data centers and 5,000 customers, faced complexity from using four separate backup products across physical, virtual, and cloud workloads, low visibility into client data, slow manual restores, and rising ransomware threats. After evaluating options, XcellHost chose Acronis—specifically Acronis Backup Cloud with Acronis Active Protection—to provide a unified, easy-to-use cyber protection solution.

Acronis deployed Acronis Backup Cloud across XcellHost’s infrastructure, replacing four products with a centrally managed, web-based platform integrated into XcellHost’s billing engine and adding AI-driven anti‑ransomware protection. The implementation cut backup times by 50%, freed staff time and resources, improved visibility and restore speed (enabling minute-scale ransomware recoveries), and streamlined provisioning, monitoring and billing for XcellHost.
