Acronis True Image Cloud: one software to save them all – 01net

Computers, smartphones, tablets: the devices we use regularly and which we store many files (office documents, photos, videos, audio files). How to avoid losing them in case of problems (viruses, breakdown, hacking, theft, user error)? Acronis editor responds to this need with the cloud version of its True Image software. This backup program not only the content of PCs and Mac (this is already the case with the current version of 2015), but also the files of iOS and Android mobile devices (Windows Phone would be considered later).

To do this, the backup is performed more locally (on the computer or on an external hard drive), but online (in the cloud), particularly on Acronis servers, which already offers a range such for professionals. The publisher says there is no backup size limit on Cloud, as the use remains personal. Acronis offers three subscriptions is to protect up to three computers and mobile devices (about 100 euros / year) or for up to three computers and ten mobile devices (about 160 euros / year) or for up to five computers and fifteen mobile devices (about 200 euros / year).

computer side, obviously concerns the backup files, but the user can also save its entire machine with the operating system and programs. This can be done locally or in the cloud. The first backup takes time, but the following will be faster, because they take into account the changes made since the first backup.
Acronis has also planned the “Try & amp; Decide “which records the changes made to the computer. For example, after changing settings or installing a new program it is possible to keep the change, or cancel. Note that True Image Cloud is optimized for Windows 10 (integration with Cortana and the search function, notifications, settings in the Control Panel) while the 2015 version is only compatible with a minor update.

For smartphones and tablets, only are saved photos, videos, contacts, calendar and various programmed alarms or reminders. Forget the idea to back up your music files, whether on iOS or Android. This is hardly better side backup SMS: it is only available on Android devices. The publisher is not in question is that Apple applies restrictions do not allow to do so.

backup procedure is not complicated, but it works by file category. It is unfortunately not possible to select one or more files to be archived. However, the safety aspect is not forgotten: backups can be encrypted and protected by a password. You can manage all devices backup processes from an account and a single interface. This is done with a simple browser by going to the Acronis website. Convenient to manage the whole family devices.
