Acronis True Image Home 11 Review

by Jon L. Jacobi

- Now in version 11, Acronis True Image is the most powerful consumer imaging program on the market. It runs from within Windows or from a Linux-based boot disc, creates full and incremental images (backing up the entire drive and subsequently adding new and changed files), and offers the usual compression and encryption options.

Duration of ownership: 2 Weeks

Strengths:

Weaknesses:

Overall Evaluation: This software was apparently not beta'd properly. After what appeared install with purchsed disk, tried to update as recommended. Update hung-up just before completing. Could not do a clean uninstall. Could not do an over-install. Could not install original disk.Tech service has responded email after 2 days with a couple suggestions. Neither worked. They now have a copy of my install log and awaiting there response. The basis of purchasing this sofware verses Norton Ghost was recomendation by PCWorld, CNet and several others. I have many hours into trying to get this install problem resolved. With the magnitude of this issue, I am now wondering if it gets resolved-should I trust my back-up with it?
