Frequently asked questions

If you still have unanswered questions, please reach out to us and we’ll be happy to assist.

An online backup, sometimes also referred to as a cloud backup is when you use a third-party service to backup and secure your data remotely, over the internet.

Cloud backups work by storing your or your business’ data on a remote server. It’s similar to a normal backup with the key difference being that the data is held offsite. This offsite storage often includes maximum online security and failsafes in order to restore data if a disaster or outage happens onsite.

Your data’s stored in the most safe and secure location which is maintained by experts – the cloud. You’re also able to backup automatically and more frequently as the entire process is customisable and streamlined. If anything does happen, you can restore from any point in time with hardly any downtime. It’s a set-and-forget solution.

With Acronis you can backup servers, virtual servers, devices such as pc's, laptops and smartphones, as well as applications like Microsoft Office, SharePoint and Exchange.

Yes, Acronis backups can be encrypted if you enable it. Before data is even transferred, it’s encrypted with AES-256, the highest form of encryption. This means your data remains confidential in case of a disastrous breach.

With our Acronis cloud storage, backing up only takes a couple minutes from your side. You can manage and customise the frequency, scale, and location of the backup in the web based console. We've written an extensive and easy to follow guide to using Acronis on any device.
