(trial) User Accounts - do we need one for every back-up?

Thread needs solution

When we watch the demo videos for Acronis, it looks like admins/presenters are creating a single Acronis Cyber Protect admin account (acronisadmin@mydomain.com for example), and then adding all their company computers using this one account.

Is this the correct or intended way to add computers?

On the other hand, if the intended approach is to create a user account (in Acronis) for every employee, then it will be a nightmare to manager all the user accounts, as 99% of our users are not computer literate.

We would appreciate your opinion on how we are supposed to manage user accounts.

Thank you!

Hello ej,

thank you for your posting! The choice would depend on your organization structure. If the infrastructure is not large and you are entirely responsible for the data management, then one admin account would be enough. If you delegate the protection management to other people and want to limit the access for security purposes, then creating separate units with an administrative account assigned to every unit would be justified.
