1 Before installation

This section answers questions that might arise before the product installation.

1.1 About using the product in the trial mode

Before buying an Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 license, you may want to try the software. This can

be done without a license key.

To install the product in the trial mode, run the setup program locally or use the remote installation

(p. 47) functionality. Unattended installation and other ways of installation (p. 18) are not supported.

Limitations of the trial mode

When installed in the trial mode, Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 has the following limitation:

 The Universal Restore functionality is disabled.

Additional limitations for bootable media:

 The disk management functionality is not available. You can try the user interface, but there is no

option to commit the changes.

 The recovery functionality is available, but the backup functionality is not. To try the backup

functionality, install the software in the operating system.

Upgrading to the full mode

After the trial period expires, the product GUI displays a notification requesting you to specify or

obtain a license key.

To specify a license key, click Help > Change License. Specifying the key by running the setup

program is not possible.

If you have activated a trial or purchased subscription for the online backup service, online backup

will be available until the subscription period expires, regardless of whether you specify a license key.

1.2 Types of licenses (stand-alone and advanced

editions)

Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 licensing is based on the number of machines backed up by the

product.

Stand-alone editions

These are the following editions:

 Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Server for Windows

 Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Server for Linux

 Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5 Workstation

The stand-alone editions are designed for backing up the data of a single machine. With any of the

above licenses, you can install all the product components on the same machine only. You will be

asked for the license key of any of the above editions during the product installation.
