In a web browser, click the blue icon on the top right corner to open the download page for
the AhsayACB installation package file from your backup service provider’s website.
In the Windows section under the AhsayACB tab of the download page, you can choose
between two installation methods:
Online installation using EXE online installer
Offline installation using ZIP offline installer
Here are some things to consider to help you device which installation method to choose:
Online Installation
Offline Installation
Pros
Online installer size is 6KB to 3.5MB
depending on operating system as it
contains only the initial installation package
files.
Ensures the latest version of AhsayACB is
installed.
Suitable for sites with fast and stable
internet connection as internet connection
is needed each time when an installation is
run.
Suitable for single or small amount of device
installations
Installation takes less time as all the
necessary binary and component files are
already available in the offline installer.
Installer can be downloaded once but
reused many times.
Can be used for multiple or mass device
installations.
Suitable for client sites with metered
internet connection as once the offline
installer is downloaded, internet connection
is not needed to run an installation.
Cons
Installation takes more time as it needs to
download the binary and component files
(80 to 110MB depending on operating
system) each time the installation is run.
Slow internet connection will result in longer
installation time. Interrupted or unstable
internet connection may cause installation
to fail.
Offline installer size is 110MB to 140MB
depending on operating system as it
contains all the necessary binary and
component files.
Installer might contain outdated binaries.
May need to update the product version
after installation if an older offline installer
was used.
