Speed of Acronis Cloud Server
Can someone tell me why the Acronis Cloud Server runs as slow as it does? I've have a constant 20 MB/s Upload Rate on my side yet NetMeter indicates a max of about 3.0 MB/s and slower than that much of the time for the Acronis server. That is abysmal performance for this day and age of cloud service technology! I have a 35 GB folder that is uploading, but at this rate it will be Christmas before I see it on the Cloud Server side. I was thinking about subscribing for a year's worth of service because $50 for 250 GB is a damn good price; BUT after watching the upload speed for a while, I will have to change my mind. Are there some bandwidth settings that I am missing somewhere in the 2013 application?

I too have noticed very poor transfer speeds. Jobs that a few weeks ago only took a few hours, now take several days....

Hi Anna,
I just went to OOKLA and live in Massachusetts and got the following speed test results:
Download Speed: 29.67 MB/sec
Upload Speed: 6.12 MB/sec
Ping Time: 14 msec
ISP: ComCast
I have started a 30 day trial Cloud Subscription with Acronis and only get a 39.06KB/sec upload speed. That's pretty bad! I have cleared out the firewall and use Webroot Security Anywhere protection. Have used other Clouds services, but usually get speeds approaching 5MB/sec or better sometimes. Trying to keep everything at Acronis as I have their Acronis Backup 11.5 for PC (I am a standalone workstation) on Windows 7 60-bit.
Is there anything I am missing here or is this speed all there is?
Regards,
Chris Tocci

So slow, that even if after 10 days my backup is ready, the next cloud backup is 3 days waiting. My data goes through fiber, a constant upload 100Mbit/s (12,5 mb/sec) up- and down (symetric). The backup is 15/20 mbps. That is verry disappointing. This is off no use.
