Acronis Cyber Backup Server 5 device 1 device 1 year

Acronis Cyber Backup Server 5 device 1 device 1 year – Enterprise-grade data protection for a single server

When a single server runs your critical applications, houses your financial records, or manages your client data, a generic backup tool is a risk you cannot afford. The Acronis Cyber Backup Server 5 device 1 device 1 year license delivers a focused, enterprise-grade backup and recovery solution engineered precisely for that scenario. This is not a stripped-down consumer utility; it is a full server backup application, licensed for one physical or virtual Windows server for a 12-month subscription period, providing you with disk-imaging backup, granular file recovery, and integrated partition management tools.

This subscription is purpose-built for IT administrators, small business owners, and managed service providers who need a compliant, auditable backup process for a single machine without the complexity or cost of multi-device management platforms. Whether you are protecting a domain controller, a SQL Server host, or a high-value workstation running legacy software, this license gives you the certainty of a verified, genuine Acronis solution. With Lizensa, you receive your unique activation key digitally within minutes, backed by full EU consumer protection and a dedicated support team ready to assist with deployment questions.

Key features and benefits

• Complete system image backup: Capture an exact, sector-by-sector image of your entire server, including the operating system, installed applications, system state, and all data. This enables a bare-metal restore to identical or dissimilar hardware, drastically reducing recovery time in a disaster scenario.
• Granular file and folder recovery: You are not forced to restore an entire image to retrieve a single deleted spreadsheet. Browse backup archives and restore individual files, emails, or application data items directly, saving time and storage resources.
• Integrated partition management: Clone entire disks or resize partitions directly within the backup console. This is invaluable when migrating to a larger SSD, restructuring server volumes, or preparing a standby replica without needing separate disk utilities.
• Flexible backup scheduling: Set automated backup plans that run as frequently as every five minutes, or create custom schedules based on specific days and times. Continuous data protection ensures your recovery point objective (RPO) is measured in minutes, not hours.
• Recovery to virtual machines: Convert a system image backup directly into a bootable virtual disk format (VHDX, VMDK) for rapid recovery into a Hyper-V or VMware environment. This turns your backup into a temporary or permanent virtual standby server.
• Windows Server platform support: Optimised for Windows Server environments, this license supports both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures where the product edition allows, with a minimum of 2 GB RAM (4 GB recommended) and 2 GB of free storage for the application installation.
• Single-device licensing clarity: The "1 device 1 year" model eliminates guesswork. You are purchasing a 12-month subscription for exactly one server, with no hidden per-core or per-socket calculations. Ideal for targeted, budget-conscious protection.
• Internet-based activation and updates: The license requires a one-time internet connection for activation. Once activated, the software can download the latest security patches and engine updates directly from Acronis, keeping your backup infrastructure current.

What's included with your purchase

When you complete your order with Lizensa, you are purchasing a 12-month subscription license for Acronis Cyber Backup Server covering a single device. Your purchase includes a unique, genuine activation key delivered digitally. No physical media is shipped; instead, you receive a secure download link to the official Acronis installation package, ensuring you have the latest, unmodified build.

This is a term-based subscription license. The software will be fully functional for the 12-month period from the date of activation. To continue receiving backup capabilities and product updates after the term expires, you will need to renew the subscription. Your purchase also includes a detailed activation guide, walking you through the simple steps of installing the software, entering your key, and completing the online activation. A full, EU-compliant VAT invoice is issued automatically and made available in your Lizensa customer account.

System requirements and compatibility

Before activating your license, verify that your target server meets the following minimum specifications. These requirements ensure the backup engine operates efficiently without impacting production workloads.

• Operating System: Windows Server (exact supported editions, such as 2016, 2019, or 2022, should be validated against the specific Acronis build you download, as support varies by version).
• Architecture: 32-bit and 64-bit where supported by the product edition.
• Processor: Modern multi-core server processor.
• Memory (RAM): Minimum 2 GB; 4 GB or more is strongly recommended for optimal performance during high-load backup operations.
• Disk Space: Minimum 2 GB of free space for the application installation. Additional, substantial storage is required for backup archives, either locally, on a network share, or on a NAS/SAN target.
• Internet: An internet connection is required for license activation and is recommended for downloading product updates.
• Languages: The software interface supports English, German, French, Dutch, and Polish.

Note: Exact system requirements can vary between minor software builds. We recommend consulting the official Acronis documentation for your specific server environment before deployment.

Installation and activation

Your journey from purchase to protection is designed to be swift. Immediately after your payment is processed, your unique Acronis Cyber Backup Server license key and a secure download link are delivered to your email address and stored in your Lizensa customer account. Average delivery time is under 60 seconds.

To activate, download the installation package from the official Acronis portal using the link provided. Run the installer on your target Windows Server and, when prompted, enter the license key. The software will perform a one-time online activation to validate the key and bind it to your device. Once activated, you can configure your backup plans immediately. If you encounter any activation errors, such as a key not being recognised, Lizensa's support team is available to help troubleshoot and liaise with the publisher if necessary. The license is tied to a single device, but in the event of a hardware failure or OS reinstallation on the same physical or virtual machine, reactivation is typically permitted.

Does this product include protection against ransomware?

This specific "Acronis Cyber Backup Server" license is focused on backup, recovery, and partition management. For integrated AI-based anti-ransomware and endpoint protection, you would need to consider an Acronis Cyber Protect license, which combines backup with advanced security.

Can I use this to back up a virtual machine?

Yes. You can install this license directly on a supported Windows Server guest operating system running inside a virtual machine and back it up as if it were a physical machine. This is a per-device license, not a host-based virtualisation license.

What is the difference between backing up a server and a standard PC?

Server backup software like this is optimised for server operating systems (Windows Server) and server-class workloads, such as databases, domain services, and always-on applications. It includes features like bare-metal restore to dissimilar hardware and application-aware processing that are not typically found in standard PC backup tools.
