Plan range: choose capacity for your backup data
The listed plans range from Acronis Cyber Protect Backup 10 GB to Acronis Cyber Protect Backup 1 TB, with 50 GB, 100 GB, 250 GB and 500 GB tiers between them. The entry plan is aimed at smaller backup requirements; the larger tiers provide more room as data volumes grow or you protect multiple environments. Webhosting UK says the service can protect up to five servers, but it does not publish specific recommendations for each tier.
Estimate the space needed for the data you intend to retain, allowing for the backup schedule and retention policy you configure. The listed capacity is not a recommendation for a particular server count. If you are unsure how much to allocate, Webhosting UK offers help choosing storage and planning a backup policy.
What stands out: off-site recovery, with policies to configure
Backup data is stored off-site in an Acronis cloud datacentre in the UK. Webhosting UK does not name the specific facility or offer a choice of storage region. Keeping backup copies separate from a live server can support recovery if that environment fails, but this is a backup product, not a hosted file-sync and collaboration workspace.
The Acronis platform provides backup management, with cPanel/WHM and Plesk integrations. Webhosting UK documents self-service restores through cPanel for end users and resellers, including recovery of individual files, mailboxes and some databases. The integration has limitations: individual-website backup is not supported through that plugin, and granular database recovery is limited. No general desktop or mobile sync client, file-sharing tools, collaboration features or ordinary file versioning were confirmed.
Webhosting UK confirms encryption in transit; encryption at rest is optional. Although our comparison labels the plans as end-to-end encrypted, the product information does not confirm zero-knowledge encryption. Multifactor authentication is included, and immutable storage is available to help protect retained backup copies from alteration or deletion. Immutability does not prove that the original data was free of malware.
You or Webhosting UK can configure backup policies, and retention is configurable. The provider does not specify a default schedule or retention period. Configured backups generate an automated status email. Webhosting UK offers setup and policy assistance, and says it can help monitor backup status when the protected server is hosted with it; equivalent ongoing monitoring for servers at other hosts is not confirmed.
Prices, billing and renewals
Monthly, quarterly and annual billing options are shown. The available information does not establish whether an introductory price changes at renewal or how a longer billing term affects the price, so treat the displayed live offer as the current billing option rather than a confirmed renewal pattern. Backup plans are excluded from Webhosting UK's stated 30-day money-back guarantee, and its general terms say unused time is not refunded pro rata.
When another online storage provider may fit better
For a file-storage service with data confirmed in Switzerland, consider Infomaniak kDrive. STRATO HiDrive stores data in EU data centres, including Germany. If selecting a primary cloud storage region matters, Microsoft Azure lets customers select one, subject to service and redundancy availability. Compare all online storage providers.
