Hello,
I am trying to clarify or confirm if the Cloud storage option (Backup and recovery Online) for ABR 11.5 Workstation will support workstations running Windows 8 or 8.1. The ABR 11.5 Workstatuon requirements seem to indicate Windows 8 is supported. However the associated Cloud Storage/online backup option requirements indicate support only to Windows 7 SP1. It seems odd that the Cloud storage option would be offered with ABR11.5 workstation and not support the same operating systems.

Can anyone please clarify or confirm this? Is it a documentation error, or does the Cloud/online storage add-on really not support Windows 8? I have a client who wants to have ABR11.5 advanced workstation running and also use cloud backup for multiple office workstations running Windows 8, and some Windows 8.1

Thanks

Cloud Storage with ABR11.5 supports Windows 8 and 8.1, so it's a documentation error. Where exactly is it listed only with Windows 7 ?

Thansk for confirming. I was hoping it was a documentation issue. It is indicated on the Requirements list directly on the web site http://www.acronis.com/backup-recovery/online/#for-workstation

It only shows up to Win 7.

Thanks for the help.
