1.8.5.3
What does "Auto-renew" mean?
Auto-renewal means that when the current subscription expires, the next subscription will be
automatically selected from the available subscriptions. The next subscription must be identical to
the current subscription.
If an identical subscription is not found, auto-renewal will not take place and your backups may fail.
No subscriptions will be bought automatically. Only those subscriptions available at the time of
auto-renewal can be used. You can select auto-renewal for each individual subscription or set up bulk
auto-renewal of all of the activated subscriptions you have.
1.8.6
What is the "Group"column for?
So you can apply actions, such as Renew all or Auto-renew all, to your selection of the subscriptions.
Specify the desired group name, for example, SalesDept, near each of the subscriptions you want to
group. Click the Group column header to sort the subscriptions and then apply the desired actions to
the group.
1.8.7
Can I revoke a subscription from a machine?
You cannot return an activated subscription to the list of available subscriptions, but you can reassign
(p. 19) it to a different machine in Acronis Backup & Recovery 10 GUI.
1.8.8
Can I cancel my subscription?
Just wait until the subscription expires. Refunds are not available for the online backup subscriptions.
2 Where do I start?
On the Acronis Web site, log in to your account (create one if you are not registered yet) and
navigate to Online backup > For Business. This is your account management Web page. Here you can
get a trial subscription, locate an Acronis partner or buy subscriptions online. The newly obtained
subscriptions are listed as available subscriptions in the Manage Subscriptions tab.
If you purchased your subscriptions from an Acronis partner, register them manually using the Enter
new registration code link. The registration codes come with the purchase confirmation e-mail.
Next, install Acronis software (p. 17) (if not yet installed) and assign (p. 19) each subscription to a
machine. The subscriptions become activated. After that, you can start backing up (p. 20) to Acronis
Online Backup Storage.
3 Choosing a subscription
Normally, you choose a subscription based on the operating system your machine is running.
