Do Samsung phones (S8) have a backup feature like my iPhone (iCloud)?

[JP21]

I'm considering buying a Samsung Galaxy S8 and I was wondering if the phone will have a backup feature like my iPhone 6 currently has (iCloud backup) where all the data, apps, photos etc. can be backed up and stored safely somewhere so if something gets deleted or my whole phone gets wiped then I will be able to restore it. So basically does samsung have an alternative of iCloud backup?

Having bought my S8 yesterday the shop said it would copy all my stuff from my iCloud technically she was right as long as you haven't been updating your iPhone as if you've got 2nd authorising on it it won't allow you depending on your age of iphone and the OS you are running some will allow you to turn it off and if you can do that then yes you can copy from iCloud.
