Remote storage

On the one hand, Acronis Cloud is a secure remote storage which you can use to store:

 Backups of your files and folders

 Backups of your partitions and disks

 Versions of your synchronized files and folders

Because files are stored on a remote storage, they are protected even if your computer is stolen or

your house burns down. In the case of a disaster or data corruption, you can recover your files and

even the entire contents of your computer.

With one account, you can save data from several computers and all your mobile devices running iOS

and Android operating systems. Refer to What is True Image for mobile devices (p. 91) for details.

To start using Acronis Cloud, you need a subscription to the service. Refer to Subscription

information (p. 20) for details.

Web application

On the other hand, Acronis Cloud is a web application that allows you to recover and manage the

data you store on Acronis Cloud. To work with the application, you can use any computer connected

to the Internet.

To access the application, go to https://www.acronis.com/my/online-backup/, log in to your account,

and then click Recover my data now.
