| | Our Ace Payroll is hosted in the cloud by an external provider. I am having trouble using the Internet Backup due to security issues. What do I do? |
The Internet Backup routine is an optional, free service. It is written for clients that have Ace Payroll on their own computer, and have either no backup routine or are not making reliable backups.
By choosing a reputable external cloud provider, you have ensured your data is already being backed up and stored in a reliable and professional way.
Therefore, there is no need to use our internet backup - due to your cloud provider, you have already achieved your goal of backing up to a secondary location.
