We selected Acronis True Image because it was easy to configure and use. It did not require an IT professional. Our Technical Support staff enthusiastically accepted the application.

Desert Schools Federal Credit Union is completely pleased with Acronis True Image. It has decreased downtime, as the product can restore a server in minutes and eliminated the need to rebuild complex server configurations from scratch.

I have just upgraded from Acronis True Image 6.0 to version 8.0 and I am impressed. I needed to use the incremental facility urgently as I realised that it was over 12 months since my last full backup! I shall not hesitate to recommend Acronis True Image to my UK colleagues as a powerful, easy to use tool, that can be relied on.

Just wanted you all to know that here on the road at a customer site I was foiled at using Ghost (and in particular being able to download Ghost after purchasing it) and so hit Google for an alternative. I found Acronis True Image and it absolutely rocked! From creating a boot CD on installation (which is what I really needed), to finding my USB drive flawlessly, to managing a multi-partition Linux drive clone, you saved my butt and I am thankful.

I got your e-mail address from a friend who recommended Acronis True Image to me. About a week after I purchased your software I had an opportunity to use it. I am a computer programmer. I program trading systems for stock and futures trades using a platform called TradeStation. I booted my machine and discovered that all of my TradeStation programs were wiped out. Acronis save me an enormous amount of work and frustration. It was simple to get all of my files back.

I am an enterprise software developer and have evaluated and deployed software for backup and recovery from Symantec, PowerQuest and Acronis, and I can say that Acronis is the clear winner. Acronis is easier, faster, and more effective. Acronis also provides superior customer service and technical support, both of which are critically important when I am managing my systems and protecting my data. In my opinion Acronis is must-have software, and I can highly recommend it over its competitors.

Just want to left you a note of a very satisfied customer. A few years ago I bought a copy of Powerquests DriveImage version 5. Later on I upgraded it to version 6 (version 2002). That last version worked quite well up until I installed my brand new 200 Gb harddisk. It then appeared that the Caldera DOS version DriveImage was using to boot into, got into troubles. I even considered updating to version 7 (as that version images a drive without leaving Windows I guessed it would work) until I read some newsgroups. Not so many people were satisfied...In one of the reviews I found on the net, your name was mentioned and I am glad I followed the link.

Since your full product price was equal to the upgrade price of DriveImage 7 I thought... what the heck. And after just one evening playing around with Acronis True Image I must say I love it. Everybody is complaining about Microsoft, but actually almost all of their products feel "mature", not so many others do. I have just a few of them... and since tonight Acronis True Image is one of them. The way it handles the "Secure zone" is just fabulous. Booting into it works like a charm and mounting an image from it is peanuts!

I purchased Acronis True Image awhile back under your Norton Ghost® special offer, and I just wanted to tell you how pleased I am with your product. (When I first tried to save and rescue I had some severe problems which I contacted you about, but in fact, those problems were not related to your software, but to a short in the motherboard. Since then...) I have had no trouble whatever with using your Acronis True Image and find it so useful for saving and restoring a "clean" copy of my OS (Data and programs are on separate partitions), that I have convinced a number of other people to purchase it also. And they are equally pleased. I love how fast it can restore. I love that I can deal with partition level backup from within windows while I'm doing other things. Now I'm just waiting for the next version where I'll be able to restore selective files from the image :)

I have had two occasions in the last five months to have to completely restore my computer. Each time it worked flawlessly and completely restored my C drive and all programs - even the very protected ones with digital signatures.

The program has saved me countless hours of rebuilding and reconfiguring time and is one of the best programs I have ever worked with.

Congratulations on your PC Magazine Editor's Choice Awards.

I would like to tell you that I have bought Acronis True Image 7.0 some time ago, because of very good tests in two Dutch Magazines. I bought it from the company Easy Computing in The Netherlands. This is a translated version, in Dutch. I very much like this program. I used to have Drive Image from Powerquest and bought Acronis True Image because of the translation in Dutch and some reviews in computer magazines in my country.

I have just bought Acronis True Image 6.0 following diastrous experiences with Powerquest's new version of Drive Image which stopped my PC from rebooting!

I have never written to a software publisher in praise of anything but, in this instance, I find that your product has so impressed me, and in this regard I speak as a software author myself, that I simply must let you know how supremely competent Acronis True Image is.

I've already done a couple of complete system restores of an XP installation from image files on my network, one from within XP and the other by using the boot CD. In each case the restore was flawless.

I am particularly impressed by the drive mounting facility and the fact that this works at the operating system level rather than requiring the use of a special viewer applet which PowerQuest's product requires.

Quite how a utility running on a Microsoft operating system is able to lock the system drive and then bypass the API so that a disc can be read at the sector level is a mystery to me but this is exactly what Acronis True Image seems to do and with great reliability.

So well done Acronis, I shall be recommending Acronis TrueImage to everyone I do business with.

I just wanted to tell you how impressed I am with your product. I bought Ghost for $70.00 and was never able to use it, it did not like my CDRW drive, and their tech support told me they had not tested with that drive so you are on your own. Your product works perfectly, and has already helped restore an accidently corrupted file.

I own registered copies of Partition Expert, OS Selector, Acronis True Image and now Acronis Privacy Expert Suite. Recently, I had a problem with not being able to create a bootable CD with Partition Expert and contacted Technical Support by e-mail.

The response from your Technical Support was absolutely terrific. Every effort was made to solve my problem over a period of time and after a number of "fixes" were tried, the problem was overcome.

I was impressed by the commitment of your Technical Support to sorting out my problem - this is in direct contrast to some other major software companies whose products I have and whose support I have requested.

Because of this, I have since purchased Acronis True Image and Acronis Privacy Expert Suite. Your software is, for me, excellent and I shall continue to use it in favour of other similar software which I own. I shall not be purchasing "their" upgrades and new versions in future but shall continue with Acronis.

We just wanted say we love you! We finally tested the Silent Acronis True Image scheduled task and it works beautifully! Please let the programmer(s) know that we think they kick butt!!!

One of the drives in my raid array (which is my system disk) got a broken connector. Turns out Serial ATA connectors are as weak as crap. Anyway. Luckily, I had made an image using Acronis True Image 7.0. Western Digital replaced my drive, but then I had to hold my breath and HOPE that Acronis True Image would restore correctly. Well, the whole process was painless and worked like a charm. Especially impressive because I restored from an external USB 2.0 drive. THANKS! If I would have had to RE-install all those programs, and REset all those preferences, etc. it would have been a NIGHTMARE! Thanks for making a product that does what it's supposed to do. And I didn't have to install .net framework! or whatever it is, like Drive Image would have forced me to do.

I'm really impressed (particularly after my successful hard drive restore) with Acronis True Image 7.0!

Until that happens, everything else is but a mute point and only academic.

Acronis True Image 7.0 is much faster than 6.0 by backing up in 2/3rd's the previous time with much more data. About 30 GB's.

Also the quick validation of the archived data in about 1/2 the backup time. This gives me a "warm fuzzy" of the integrity of my backup.

Also the startup access without rescue media that is also restored back to a hard drive partition intact is a neat feature.

One thing that really impressed me with Acronis True Image 6.0 and 7.0, is the ability to also restore files from a virtual drive. A single backup operation for both drive imaging and individual file restorations.

I cannot even conceive a more simple, complete, and reliable protection of system data and software as Acronis True Image accomplishes. Your software was truly enhanced by your Acronis True Image 7.0 release.

It truly is worth the low price charged. It will be very hard for a competitor to top your features without duplicating your unique software design.

A gui imagining product. Sure... whatever." I could not believe my eyes!

I can not tell you how happy this product has made me. It is a lab nerds dream to have such a product. A dream come true. So simple but so tremendously powerful. Incredible! You have reduced the imaging of my lab computers down to an amazing incredible reduction in time. The ease that it went on to the systems. That incredible boot CD/floppy boot disk! The products ability to recognize it's hardware environment pretty much blew me away! I can walk around with a USB Mass Storage Device and Acronis True Image Boot CD and be a complete mad man! This product is amazing!

Being hard headed about a mainstay product, cost me hour after hour of frustration trying to get that "spooky" software to work. Your product is amazing and makes theirs look ridiculous. I wonder how many other people out there are going through the same frightening experience. I am shocked at how your product differed in easy of use and speed. Really, the best $50 bucks I think I have spent in a long long time.

Incredible. I can not say enough about the product! You have totally embarrassed the competition!

Outstanding! So far I'm very impressed with Acronis True Image 6.0 and will be looking forward to the upgrade you mentioned. Please, keep up the good work.

Acronis True Image is the first backup program I am excited about and am recommending to others. I've been seriously burned by Microsoft Backup since it doesn't backup everything (and doesn't bother to let you know that!). I was using Retrospect. Acronis True Image leaves it in the dust.

Thanks for a great product.

Thanks for the reply to my e-mail. You were right. I purchased Acronis True Image 6.0 and I must say it is a great program. I backed up my Hard Drive C: with all the operating system files and programs on to Hard Drive D:(which is another partion on the physical drive). It took about 30 minutes to back up 18.5 Gb with a 3rd compression. Then just to see if it would work I put in the bootable rescue disk I had made during installation and let the computer boot to this disk. From the time I put the disk into the drive till I got my system completely back up and running was about 15 minutes. Everything was the same as when I backed it up. It deleted the old information and reinstalled the new information from my backup copy in less time than I could make a pot of coffee. This is really a terrific program. It does all you say it will. Now there is no more all day affairs trying to recover from a fatal crash.

I picked up Acronis True Image 6.0 the other day and it has already been a godsend.

What an incredibly useful and powerful program. Even easeier to use than what I've used for disk imaging from the competition.

I will probably try your other products. Acronis True Image is on my highly recommended list.

Congratulations on getting PC Magazine's Editor's Choice Award for Acronis True Image 6. It's been my choice for months. Glad I recognized outstanding software, even before PC Magazine told us it was outstanding.

It's pulled me out of many crisis situations, so I consider it as essential as tires on a car, or water to drink.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm just burning images for the fun of using Acronis True Image. Hum?

Anyway, keep the great products coming. I also like Acronis PartitionExpert.

I downloaded your 15 day trial of Acronis True Image and find it to be superior in all ways to the competition. I have used Ghost and Drive Image for as long as they have been on the market. I have used them professionally at work and home. I am ashamed to say that while we in the I. T. department have a lot of heavy computer experience, we still have trouble with this process, very touchy. With Acronis True Image their is very little to confuse, the interfaces are extremely intuitive. I have tried to teach my wife how to use Drive Image in case I get hit by a bus and she needs to resolve a bad drive. She said that the drive will have to follow me due to the confusion of these competitive products. When I introduced her to Acronis True Image she was able to totally understand the process and feel 100% confident in restoring drives and files. We will definitely order when the new version is out. Thanks!!!

I'm utterly impressed! This has to be the best piece of software I have come across in many years. I have tried 15 or 20 different imaging software brands in the past several months, including Paragon's Hard Disk Manager, Bootit NG, Norton Ghost®, a couple of PowerQuest's products and several other not so well known products, but without a doubt, whether they worked or not, not a single one can match Acronis True Image 6.0 for proficiency and ease of use.

I use it on a Windows 98 OS and was going to give up ever getting a product that worked as I thought it should - Acronis True Image 6.0 was my final program to test and I almost didn't anyway.

Am I ever glad I did! This is an excellent product -far superior to any I have tested for disk imaging. It is well worth every penny of it's cost, and I have already lined up several more sure sales from people I've spoken with that were waiting to see what I choose.

Thanks for a wonderful piece of software.

Just wanted to tell you that you guys have done an awesome job with Acronsis True Image. A Truly Superb Product that works flawlessly. What a breath of fresh air after struggling with Norton Ghost® all these years!

Keep up the good work and keep me posted on new product line additions.

I also would like to let you know that last night I purchased Acronis True Image 6.0 and gave it a whirl on the SCSI RAID system that was the subject of our last communique.

What a wonderful product you guys have created! You've taken a very complex and powerful tool and made it so simple that it borders on sheer elegance. The simplistic look and feel of this feature packed product is mind blowing!

This program built a set of complex boot floppies without any gripes or special user input. The bootloader detected the scsi controller... the busmaster controller... and the arrays... and then booted the system like it was no effort at all. Let me tell you... even Windows XP Pro setup cannot do that!

The GUI is beautiful and extremely well implimented. I am truly impressed. Acronis has earned my respect and gets highest recommendation.

Keep up the excellent work.

I just wanted to send an email to say how happy I am with True Image 6.0. I was in desperate need of a way to image a partition on an IDE RAID controller. I previously had used Norton Ghost but it failed to have support for RAID drives. Luckily I found your product. It worked flawlessly and it is far better than any other product I have used. I especially like the bootable CD option. Keep up the good work!

After trying your Acronis True Image, I bought it myself for home use. Another technician convinced his department to buy it because yours was the only product out there that could image a RAID.

I have tested True Image at home on XP, 2K, Linux and dual-boot systems and, as a result of being so knocked out by the product, am promoting it to technicians and groups as a group/department solution for their imaging needs. TrueImage saved my bacon on one particularly thorny problem where two of your better-known competitors wouldn't even recognize the drive to be imaged. On top of that, the native maintenance of file journals when imaging ext3 partitions/drives is a huge boon and time saver as is the built in TCP/IP capability without having to reboot networked target with a dos floppy.

I really appreciate your marketing/licensing scheme as not only fair and equitable but also as a good pattern for the industry as a whole in these down-turn times. It allows "embedded" and independent techs to add a very valuable tool to their arsenals without the threat of bankruptcy or license violation.

Thanks for making a good solid product.

Acronis True Image worked perfectly. My Netware server has a small Dos partiton and a Netware partiton. Other image programs could not deal with the Netware partiton. I used Acronis True Image to image the whole drive. It restored perfectly to a new HD... so I now have a great way to handle backup and disaster recovery. Thanks!

Comments about my experience so far...

1. Thanks for trusting me to buy it if it worked. Most suppliers would just say "buy it, and return it if it doesn't work".

2. I love the way it sees the rest of my network! No need to create network enabled boot disks. I simply shared a drive on another machine and saved the image over the network. Even other Windows machines can't find each other but Acronis True Image can...

Several month's ago we began deploying Windows 2000 to a number of our clients. We evaluated several imaging solutions including Microsoft's RIZ and Powerquest's Deploycenter and arrived two conclusions: First, that RIZ's required network cards and other setup was more complex then we wanted. Second, that Deploycenter was way too expensive and extremely top heavy. After doing a search on the Internet, purchasing and using Acronis True Image I am happy to say that the software and your company has exceeded our every expectation - thank you!

During our first deployments, we used Acronis True Image to deploy one software image to many of the same type of machine. We found that it actually didn't have support for the built-in NIC's, but your support department was very helpful and we found a quick resolution to the problem. On the second stage of deployment, we were upgrading many machines and we found that by imaging the machines first we could perform upgrades without any risk of data loss. And if an upgrade went totally wrong we could easily restore the original image in about an hour. Now after deploying the machines, we have images of each user's pc so if anything ever happens we can easily restore it to the way it was on the day we installed Windows 2000.

Acronis True Image is not only a great imaging product it is a great insurance policy! We are going to require that all of our clients purchase at least one copy and keep it on location for our remote support.

So we just wanted to say thanks for making a great product, having great support and making our lives a little easier.

Just bought Acronis True Image Ver. 7.0 and gave it a thorough testing. I have been using Acronis True Image Ver. 6.0 for some time now and must say that the newer version is absolutely awesome. Loads of new features that were missing in Acronis True Image Ver 6.0 and which I will definitely be using in the future, especially like the incremental backup, the hidden partition and Start-up Recovery Manager. Great product, great user manual, both easy to read and implement, well done Acronis yet another great product and worth every penny especially the nice freebie of the Recovery Expert.

I own Norton Ghost®, Drive Image and now Acronis. There is absolutely no comparison. Acronis wins hands down. It is fast, reliable, works in Windows and can backup to a wide range of media, including DVD. Initially it seemed too good to be true, but over the last year I have used it in lieu of my backup programs, in migrating from an IDE hard drive to a RAID zero system. I am now fearless in messing with my computer since I have full confidence in my ability to turn back the clock. I have convinced many friends to switch to it and their response is the same as mine. Unfortunately, it is not as well known in the U. S. as the vastly inferior Drive Image and the even poorer Norton Ghost®. Thanks for a great program.

I have been a Symantec Norton Ghost® user for many years and thought that their software was as good as it gets - that is until today. I installed Acronis True Image 6.0 and to my surprise, it was so simple to image my drive onto CD-R/W discs and restore the image back to my PC. Outstanding job and so easy while performing all its imaging while still in windows! And no more booting into DOS just to restore an image - Acronis True Image 6.0 will be my choice of software for a long time to come.

I think your product is great! I am amazed that it can image a server from Windows and the boot CD is simply amazing. We spent months trying to get Ghost to work with the NIC in the new HP Proliant DL360 G2. Your boot CD auto-detected it in seconds!

I have used Ghost 2003 for my backups but always had problems with some of my 8 (!) computers. A few days ago I bought a Maxtor 80 Gb ext USB 1.1/2.0 hard drive. After wrestling for hours with downloads from Ghost and installing extra drivers from Ghost I finally got it to work on one computer. (Ghost works ok here most of the time, with partitions on the internal C: drive but last week one of my laptops lost the HD and of course the Ghost backup).

Ghost will not work with my old USB1 L10/10 Gb external hard drive.

After spending a few hours on google trying to find an answer, and reading Ghost horror stories, I came across Acronis True Image 6.0. After spending an other hour looking at reviews of that software I downloaded the Acronis software and put it on a cd. They have a special for $9.00 for users of Ghost!!!

Now get this! That software works on ALL of my computers and even the 4 year old USB 1 ,yes 1 not 1,1 ext hard drive. And it does it in Windows.

It is however not very fast but that is a minor trade off for me. The slow speed could be caused by my use of USB 1.1. I use XP, 98 SE, 2K. The recovery CD or 5 floppies will work on any computer or operating system or No operating system at all! So unlike Ghost you only need one recovery cd.

Look at the reviews in google, for $9.00 finally something that works! (At last for me)

This is the first time I've ever written to a company to praise them on a product I have purchased, but in this case I felt the need to do just that. I own a small Video Production Company with three server type computers. Each has over 800 Gb of video RAID storage. Over the past three weeks I've been trying to get three editing systems with new motherboards and hard drives back on line so I could do work again. I had Norton Ghost 2003R and Powerquest DriveImage 7 to Image the old drives to the new larger drives. For three weekends now I've gone through the process with each software on each system of updating the OS drives with nothing but error messages, boot problems and crashes. Each computer had different brand or model hard drives, but all had the same new motherboards. I had written to both companies' tech support staff and tried the fizboot, Windows XP Recovery CDs; DriveImage was tried with the copy drive feature and the image feature. In each case the software would create the image fine. The only problem was my computer wasn't able to read it. I mean everything had been tried and only one of the three systems was even able to boot after all this. I was angry at myself mostly for tearing down all three systems at the same time, but I had done this before only new OS were installed on each. This time was different because I have hundreds of programs installed into the OS and wanted to image the old HDD to the new. Sounded simple enough.

I decided to search the web for possible third imaging software, even though I thought the problems were some little things wrong with equipment compatibility for each of the systems. I then came across Acronis True Image 6.0 and Acronis Migrate Easy 6.0 (with Acronis PowerUtilities). I purchased both and tried Acronis Migrate Easy on each system to transfer the OS to each new Drive. Within forty-five minutes, all three systems were up and running again with no boot problems, no crashes and no errors.

There was nothing wrong with the compatibility of my equipment and nothing wrong with the install or partitioning of my drives. The problem was the Imaging software I was using!!

After dealing with Norton and Powerquest about their products and being made to feel like an idiot, all of the extremely tedious work and headaches, I had to write to you and praise Acronis for the fantastic products that actually "work as advertised" with no pain, and a manual that explains everything perfectly. Great Job! I will be an Acronis user from now on! The software seems to be written and tested (for Windows XP) so well, I'm looking into purchasing everything you have.

Thank You for getting my Company back Up and running again so easily!

I purchased the True Image 6.0 for Norton Ghost® users and I am astonished on the positive differences between your product and Norton's. I never could grasp the Norton interface, but with True Image it was so easy! This is how software should work. True Image 6.0 is an excellent product and one which I will reccommend highly!

Could this be? An imaging utility that actually does what it says? Could it be so easy? I restored an image just for test. It ran flawlessly. My mouth is agape. I love Acronis. Thank you to the genius minds of the Acronis staff. After 22 hours of nerve wracking troubleshooting, I can rest assured that because I now have Acronis True Image Deluxe. I will not spend another 22 hours doing this ever again. If there was a Purple Heart for software (saving a fellow PC person)- Acronis would deserve it!

I am totally stunned at True Image's simplicity. I thought that I could not get a reliable image of my portables hard disk, but with 'True Image Deluxe' it's done without any trouble at all. What a result, after I have tried all the competitors software, and what a bargain of an upgrade for ANY portable computer user! Being able to restore files from a mounted partition image, as a new logical drive letter is so inspired. The manual is also very well laid out. Stunning, just get it before you regret it is my advice. I expected a clash with Direct-CD but no trouble at all, you know what you are doing! Such a pleasure to see quality software like Acronis True Image Deluxe.

"I must say, Acronis True Image is Fantastic! I have already recommended it to several friends!"

I recently purchased Acronis True Image because of a mishap with Norton Ghost®. I just want to say that Acronis True Image is an awesome disk cloning app, and I'm going to recommend it over Ghost. Keep making great software and thanks for a "working" clone of my Linux drive.

Acronis True Image Deluxe is the single most impressive program I have ever purchased. In this day of viruses, worms and crashes, I finally have a real sense of security. I have tried all other imaging utilities, most operating from DOS, and they are very cumbersome and full of glitches. Acronis True Image Deluxe is by far the easiest, most intuitive and accurate program for backing up complete drives.

I love your Acronis True Image product and will recommend it to all who ask me for a good backup program. Acronis True Image is quick and reliable, and its ability to restore not just a partition but individual files makes it just what I need.

I was using Norton Ghost® previously, but it doesn't come close providing the value and ease of use I have found with TrueImage Deluxe. Thanks for a great product!

I recently purchased Acronis True Image. This is by far the best image program I have ever used. Without rebooting it made an image of my Win2k system, which was running at the time. Amazing! Also restoring an image from a multiple CD set finally worked for me! Never did with PowerQuest Drive Image. I have already recommended Acronis True Image to all my friends.

I have used Drive Image Pro for the last couple of years and Acronis True Image is defiantly a superior product. You guys have managed to hit all the hot buttons on my wish list for an imaging product.

I LOVE Acronis True Image Deluxe. I have been reformatting my computer at least monthly for some time now so Acronis True Image Deluxe is just what I need! Thanks!

Due to the nature of our business, we must upgrade hard drives to accommodate our product line. In the past we had to rely on Norton Ghost® to move our system drives over, keeping our fingers crossed. Finally there's a product that is fast, easy, and reliable with no special booting requirements. Hats off to Acronis for a wonderful product. Thanks guys!

I recently purchased Acronis True Image Deluxe. It is brilliant and well done, and it leaves Ghost for dead. I only wish I had known about Acronis True Image Deluxe years ago. Thanks again, well done!

Its an excellent product and does exactly what I wanted it to do. I wish I had looked into this years ago, because now its so quick and easy to switch between operating systems and set up test environments.
