Online backup services bring with them a whole vocabulary of their own, which may make them look more complex than they actually are. To make researching cloud backup solutions and their features as easy as using the service itself, we’ve created this glossary that explains various terms. Simply click on the name of the term you want to learn more about, and the explanation will roll out.
