Acronis Backup Size mismatch issue

Thread needs solution

We are bit confused about the size of a backup.

For a selected Backup Plan using "Plan ----> Backup" option and then selecting the Activity tab In the Activities it shows:
Bytes processed: 886 GB
Bytes saved: 376 GB

However when I go to the same Backup in the "Tape Backup" using "Backup ----> Tape_Backup" option it shows 
Size 559 GB for that particular day's backup.

It is very confusing to me to understand what exactly is the backup size. I would like to understand it thoroughly, as I need to decide buying a NAS storage and multiple Tapes for our company, considering how much our data backup size will be for full backup/incremental backup.

Hi,

The proper sizes should appear when viewing "Backups" view and it should match the "Bytes saved" value assuming that it's the only 1 backup performed and there were no incremental backups in between. The inconsistency you describe looks like a bug which should be investigated with help from our support team. As a workaround to estimate the sizes of your backups you can save them to plain network share instead of tape device - it would be much more transparent.

Thank you.
