- Worthless support
I have spent months of back and forth with tech support because I could not get the space management to work. I run out of space on my backup drive and the space management just continues to fail time after time and does not use my space mangagement options to delete old backups. In any case, Acronis has a habit of responding to your first request, asks for more information and then they're gone. I've done this a number of times and have had to start over and over with them. I really liked Ghost, but it didn't handle my encrypted files properly. Now I miss it.

- Great Software
After all the negative reviews of the product, I kept putting off the purchase and kept looking for alternatives. On one computer I even upgraded to the Vista Ultimate version, since it has some basic drive imaging software built in (not that great of a deal). I have used the old PowerQuest Drive Image programs from Version 1 until the company was purchased by Symantec several years ago. Now that was a great program! I then tried Norton Ghost for several versions to current one, and it's okay, but 'buggy', sometimes recognizing the image as valid and sometimes not.
What I also like about this product is the ability to backup only certain directories and archive them, like my Music Files, or Busines files rather than backing up a whole partition. With Windows Vista or with Windows Live One Care, you don't have control over "directory" backups, but rather "file types" (.docx, .jpeg, .xls and such). WinXP allowed you to backup up exactly what you wanted. This True Image program allows you to also image just a directory and also split the backup so you can copy to DVDs to store.
I played with this program on several computers with the trial download and had NO problems in installation, buggy hangs and such. Also for $32.99, (I just noticed the price is down to $29.99) this was a great deal. You don't get that price for Norton Ghost, even with upgrade pricing. Norton Ghost also loads in a lot of services on startup that take up system resources, and also, since I have gone back to Windows Live One Care, the WLOC, doesn't like to install if there are other Symantec products installed (like Ghost). That program tries to uninstall Norton products.
I highly recommend this Disk imaging program. I have not had to contact customer support (and hopefully won't from the sound of other reviewers), but then I rarely have problems and needs to contact support with other software as well (well, except for Live One Care).
I restored the image from the backup without any problems, just to test the process. This program is slower than Ghost or my old Drive Image by PowerQuest, but not an inconvenience.

- Easy as Pie
The program installs easily, and scheduling backups was as easy as following the on-screen directions. As usual with Acronis though, a Secure Zone cannot be created on an external (USB) drive, so all the advantages of a Secure Zone are lost with this installation. I haven't had to restore from version 11, but have from version 9, and that was wonderful (or better).

- Performed as Advertised - Already Saved Me
I am an experienced user but not at imaging a drive. It still took me a few tries to get it. Acronis has received great reviews and this product performed as advertised. I am pleased.

This product has already saved me hours on a Vista reinstall (had to reset a new HP to factory)! I'll continue to do baseline images (to step abk to) when I reach stable points as I install software & personalize setings.

- After image is made, Acronis can not find Hard Drive Disk to restore
I have had Acronis installed on two different computers. Backup images were created by Acronis successfully to secondary hard drives (pata) and external usb2(pata) hard drives and backups validated by Acronis software. In both cases Acronis gave a E000101F4 error indicating it could not find a hard drive disk when attempting to 1)actually restore and 2)to just test a Acronis boot cd. Error was given in both cases when using a Acronis bootable cd and trying to restore from Windows XP pro via Acronis program. Latest software update version was used from Acronis. Save your cash.
