Cyber Protect Licensing
Our office has been subscribing to True Image for many years. Typically we upgrade every two years. I've noticed that the new Cyber Protect Home Office indicates a one-year subscription license.
What does this mean?
Will we have to upgrade/re-subscribe yearly?
If we fail to do so, will Cyber Protect stop working (stop doing scheduled backups)?

Thanks, that was helpful. The answer is yes, Acronis will cease to backup after the year subscription expired.
What about older versions like ATI 2020? Will they be blocked from working at some point?

As long as you have the Perpetual license they will continue to work.

Related question: If one day we decide to not continue renewing the Cyber Protect subscription, can the then expired Cyber Protect program still be use to access and restore backups done years earlier?

If you create bootable rescue media while the subscription is valid, then I believe that it remains functional after the subscription ends or isn't renewed for offline recovery etc.
KB 69352 has the statement:
When your Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office subscription expires, all product functionality will be blocked until further subscription renewal, however, the backed up data is still accessible:
- Local backups remain available for restore.
The above suggests (to me) that recovery function in the ACPHO GUI application should still be available and perhaps the Windows shell integration with Explorer should still work. I have never tested whether this is a correct assumption!
