ATI 2017: [Enhancement request] Calendar view for tasks

Thread needs solution

Hello Acronis,

it would be nice to be able to see all tasks (defined backups) in some calendar view:
1 week: lines = tasks in the same order as on "tasks page", columns = days (MO, TU,..., SU)
  in field : time of scheduled backup, colors for easy read.
, or

1 month : matrix of days in month, colors for days where the backup/task is scheduled. Diff colors for Folder/Disk/Mobile backup, Use quaters if more types (colors) needed for 1 day.
Mouse-over: list of tasks w/ time ordered by time

Contact me if you want more details reg. design ;-)  (for free :-) )

Thanks,

Martin

Martin, you should submit your request via the Feedback tool in the ATIH 2017 GUI to get it formally registered with Acronis, plus depending how strongly you feel about it, you could raise a Support Case to suggest it via that channel too.

In many ways, the feature you are asking for is one that was in earlier versions of the product but which Acronis in their wisdom removed as they 'simplified' (aka dumbed down in other users opinion!) the GUI resulting in the loss of a GUI method for accessing the Logs etc.

Not quite what you're asking (I get it), but there are ways to check what your scheduled tasks are doing and when they're supposed to run as well.

Hello,

my ER is for 1 calendar where I can see all tasks. Similar to normal calendar apps, see pic.

Martin, we understand your request and may fully agree with it but have no power to make it happen for you.

This needs to be submitted directly to Acronis by yourself.  You can use the in-app Feedback tool (in Help) plus you can raise a Support Case with Support to register this request, and your could start a Private Message conversation with Gaidar, General Manager Acronis True Image who can take your request to the Acronis Development team.  They would then need to review and assign a priority to the request but I would not expect to see any immediate change in the main application soon.
