But once you cross that hurdle, all subsequent updates only take a few seconds, since it only updates new or changed files. The only drawback (and I believe this to be true of all online storage solutions) is that the initial backup or restore takes a long time (several hours or days, depending on your connection).

I have mine set at 2am every night, so when I wake up every morning I am welcomed by a reassuring message saying all my data has been backed up and is safe. You can use it to specify which files or directories on your computer to back up or restore, as well as when you want an automatic backup to occur. What I like most about Mozy is its easy-to-use client.

So whether the former Mozy customer they are helping is an individual or a growing business with more than 100 endpoints, by working with Acronis, MSPs have a range of easy, efficient, secure cyber protection solutions available that can fit the bill and close the sale.I've been using Mozy for several years and consider it one of the best online storage providers out there.

The considerations we’ve outlined aren’t just important for end-users. More importantly, in the real world, our technology is so effective that it stopped more than 400,000 ransomware attacks last year alone. Independent lab tests consistently show our built-in anti-malware – called Acronis Active Protection – to be the most effective at stopping new zero-day ransomware attacks, preventing cryptojackers from stealing system resources, and defending itself against malware attacks that specifically target backups. and Acronis True Image is the only personal backup solution that kind of defense built-in. As a result, we deliver modern cyber protection solutions built for the modern data needs of individuals and organizations.
