Acronis

Overview and Configuration Guide: Integrating Acronis Cyber Protect with Gradient

Overview

The Acronis integration synchronizes services from your Acronis Cyber Protect account to help with mapping and reconciliation to services or products in your PSA. This integration creates various services based on your billing requirements. If you're unsure which services to map, log in to Acronis Cyber Protect and review your usage (e.g., protected workloads). This usage breakdown and the services created in Reconcile should align, making it easier for you to map them accordingly.

Note: Acronis Cloud Storage includes your Microsoft 365 cloud storage data as part of its storage usage. It's important to be aware that Acronis does not bill you separately for this Microsoft 365 data, and there is currently no option to exclude Microsoft 365 cloud storage from the total cloud storage usage.
