Stop Daemon Cloud Backup from consuming my Macbook Pro

I have a Macbook Pro running High Sierra OS 10.13.3. The machine goes into a backup mode using Daemon Backup Assistant and runs for hours with the app consuming 90% of the CPU time. I can temporarily stop it by going to the Activity Monitor and doing a Force Quit, but it is temporary. How do I fix this as it doesn't seem to be working the way it was intended?

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3)

Time Machine makes hourly backups, even during sleep Is that normal behaviour? If I am not using the computer what is the need for a back up? I noticed that my external HDD drive is pretty much in constant use and my MacBook air hardly ever sleeps :D

My time machine backups keep getting interrupted by the machine "timing out"...it quits the open apps after awhile (when unattended) and the back up stops. I have energy saver set to "never". My Time Machine backup effort to an external HD keeps being interrupted/stopped when the machine, while unattended, quits apps and goes to the log-in screen. I have energy saver set to "never". Unless I sit with the machine keeping it awake, this always happens. How do I stop this so the back up (650 GB) continues to completion once started by me manually.
