Acronis Empowers SMBs to Fortify Data Protection

Acronis International GmbH announced a limited-time promotional offer to provide free cloud storage to its Acronis Backup users of version 11.7 and the version 12.

Ending on September 30, 2016, customers that buy or renew Acronis Backup can get free Acronis Cloud Storage for 1 year or for subscriptions for up to 3 years.

“Today’s SMBs are struggling to keep up with the growing volume of data to backup, while making sure it’s protected from constant threats like ransomware,” said John Zanni, CMO, Acronis. “As part of today’s announcement, we’re putting the call out to all SMBs to make sure they have complete protection in place no matter where their data resides, while ensuring they keep multiple backups available at all times.“

With this Acronis promotional offer, SMBs can take their data protection a step further by implementing the proven 3-2-1 Rule of Backup – with no cost for cloud storage for one year. This 3-2-1 rule states that businesses should keep 3 copies of their data stored at all times, backed up to 2 different destinations – disk and cloud are the most popular – with 1 copy stored off-site, usually in the cloud.

Acronis Cloud Storage is an off-site cloud storage option that turns any Acronis Backup product into a powerful hybrid cloud backup solution. Benefits include safe, secure, and scalable offsite backup for any data or any system, using ultra-secure, tier-IV designed & SSAE-16 compliant local data centers. IT administrators can perform local and off-site cloud backup in one easy step within any Acronis business backup product. Acronis Cloud Storage enables SMBs to backup everything, including disks, partitions, servers, and data to the Acronis Cloud, with the ability to recover files, folders, applications, or an entire system.

The current promotional offer is valid for new purchases

• 1TB free storage per server/virtual host for Acronis Backup 12
