First Class July 4, 2008 24 out of 24 found this review helpful
I already had a backup/restore facility on my Acer laptop via so called Acer Empowering Technology. However it always took 3.5 hours to complete a full system backup which sometimes failed first time stretching the run time to an incredible 7 hours! Getting very fed up with this and having heard good reports on Acronis True Image I have just purchased the 11. version.
Superb and so easy to set up and use. I did a full backup to an external hard drive in 24 mins and another to the Acronis Secure Zone partition I set up on my internal hard drive in 40 mins without a single hitch. Well done Acronis.
It simply worked July 2, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I used to use Ghost on my XP systems with no problem but I saw the poor reviews here for the new Vista compatible version of Ghost so plumped for Acronis instead ... Joy of Joys!
My pc had already stated to play up, so I was desparate to get a backup to simplify the disc change. I made a backup last night and fitted the new disc today. Pushed the Acronis CD into the DVD drive and identified the disc with my backup. About 3/4 hour later PC fully restored.
Acronis True IMage 11 quite simply it does the job.
Vital software but interface could still be simpler June 27, 2008 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Everyone should backup their PC or laptop. You never know when the hard disk will fail or laptop get stolen. An external hard drive is the easiest and quickest medium to use but most come with pretty poor backup software. The Acronis package is generally considered one of the best. You can create what is known as a disk image which is a copy of your whole hard drive, and probably the best backup you can do - if you need to you can just copy it back onto a new drive or computer. Otherwise you can copy selected files and folders. Acronis does this well and there are plenty of options. It also includes some other less useful features many of which you could get free online. It's certainly powerful and once you get set up easy to use. However the interface and wizards could be better if you are a novice or want something really simple. Overall this is the sort of software everyone should have; spend a few minutes reading the manual and you should be fine.
Quirky, but excellent June 25, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I read the Amazon reviews, which are quite wide ranging, but decided to buy. Spent a couple of weeks cursing, as it is not intuitive to use, however, once you've worked out how it works, it is truly excellent. Have used it to recover a whole disc, very scary, but worked perfectly, also individual partitons and files. No problem. A very good product, once you know how! Thoroughly recommended.
Faulty batch---code missing June 23, 2008 5 out of 9 found this review helpful
The current stock of this software is supplied without a code number making it impossible to install. Acronis offered very little support. Please do not waste your money on this.
