Acronis Cloud backup

Thread needs solution

I just got Acronis cloud storage. I am doing an encrypted backup. Does it take longer for an encrypted backup to

complete vs. non-encrypted backup, all things being equal (upload speed)?

Also, it appears that all cloud backups are file level backups as opposed to proprietary backups, i.e.. full, incremental, differential). I don't see any options for these types of backups.

Thanks,

John

John,

It has been my experience that encrypted backups do not take any longer to complete than non encrypted ones.  Service Provider speeds rule this aspect of cloud backup.

Cloud backups consist of a Full backup of selected data for the first backup followed by a Delta style backup after that.  There are no other options for cloud backups.
