 Acronis True Image 9.0 September 12, 2007

This software is everything the professional reviewers said it was: User friendly, lots of options for backup needs, excellent Disk Image and/or Cloning for entire hard drive, etc. I bought it on basis of its reviews and would recommend it to everyone. Everyone should have a Disk Image of their hard drive. Incremental backups are fine, but still a headache to load everything back in after a crash. Disk Image using Acronis is the only way to go!! You will not regret buying this product!! The latest version is 10.0, but 9.0 works fine too, and much cheaper!
 Terrible product even worse support July 4, 2007

All I can tell you is AVOID, AVOID, AVOID what makes it worse is the arrogance of the company. They coould care less about a customer. all they want is your money and then it is basically go %$#@ yourself.

My #1 drive, WD 120 GB in three partitions, C:, E: Programs, F: Data went Tango Uniform. BIOS identification didn't even agree with physical characteristics. Tried a couple times for easy solution but no dice. Fortunately, I had backed it up. Full backup on 2/6/07 with incrementals 4/7, 5/6, 6/1, and 6/19. All of these had been manually started.
Making my previous Drive 2 my new Drive 1, I fully recovered my bootable system loosing only data since the last incremental backup. Man, was I ever relieved. This is about the 4th time I've lost my drive and data over the years but it's the first time that I had backed up. I would have lost all my pictures, tax info, etc. I'M A BELIEVER!
Couple of anxious moments. Using the original True Image bootable CD, the program said my backups weren't valid or corrupted. WTFO? Finally remembered I had updated the program. But wait, that was on the crashed drive. Spent several hours installing windows so I could download the updated version. This time I made a recovery CD with the UPDATED program and it recognized the backups.
This version (9) of the program needs to take complete control of the target drive. I didn't have anything on my drive so no problem. Interestingly, the restore returned the three backed up partitions and left the remainder of the drive unallocated.
This is probably pretty confusing but the bottom line is that Acronis True Image 9 works well. I'm going to see if I can schedule nightly incrementals after I do a current complete backup. Then I should never miss more than 1 day of data when the next crash happens.
Key lesson--make your bootable recovery disc AFTER you've updated the True Image program. Had I done that initially, my total restore time would probably have been significantly less since I wouldn't have had to mess with installing XP and its gazillion critical updates before I could download the Acronis update.

After reading several tales of woe from users of newer versions and of the recent Symantic products, we got a copy of True Image 9 to clone a drive and upgrade an XP Pro system. This can be found for around $15-20 plus shipping and is good bargain. Since it is from 2004, it might not work with Vista.
Installation and operation were clearly explained and problem-free. The older, once ample 8GB SCSI disk was cloned onto a new 160GB IDE disk in less than 10 minutes. After simple changes to the master-slave selection and the BIOS boot order,the system was up in another few minutes.
Our previous drive letter assignments for five devices were retained, so there will be no problems with future software upgrades. Complex software like Outlook and Microsoft Visual Studio picked up where they left off.
Does exactly what it says on the tin.

Great Product but shame on Amazon for selling it without telling people that it is old software. Kudos to Acronis for giving me a free upgrade to 10.
Acronis 10 is absolutely wonderful!
