Summary: Pray you won't need support
Comment: Needing to update my tools to manage partitions and backups, I purchased licenses for several Acronis products (True Image, Drive Cleanser, Disk Director Suite) a year ago.
Months after my purchase, I exchanged my portable computer with a new one, this one coming with Windows Vista Business preinstalled, in Brazilian Portuguese. After some time trying to make Vista behave, I resolved to install XP Professional for my work, but leaving the partition with Vista intact for any ocasional future use. Disk Director to the rescue! After hiding the partition and creating a new one, installing XP normally and having everything set up and running, came the moment to use the so-called "Boot Manager" to allow me to chose between Vista and XP. And I had an unpleasant surprise when I saw that Acronis Disk Director Suite 10.0 didn't recognize the partition with Vista, even when the product is clearly marked as compatible with Vista.
After contacting technical support, I was told that Disk Director Suite 10.0 had a bug recognizing non-English versions of Vista, but this bug was corrected and would be fixed in the next build of the software. Days later, I got a message asking me to close the support ticket, as the issue was "resolved to my complete satisfaction". I beg your pardon? As I had nothing but an allegation that the problem was fixed, but I still wasn't able to use the Boot Manager, I said that I didn't agree to close the ticket, and certainly wasn't "completely satisfied" with the solution at the moment.
Well, now four months have passed since the problem was "resolved". Guess what - not a single update was released for any of the products I bought (since I purchased them), and I am still not able to use the Boot Manager. Before purchasing this product, make sure that everything you need works as it should, because should you need any correction, you are on your own.

Summary: Disk Director
Comment: I recently purchased the Acronis Disk Director for the purpose of partitioning my disk. I have never done this before and it was easy to do. After that I added a second disk to my system and used Disk Director to format and partition it also. Works great and easy to use.

Summary: Performed as Advertised - I am Pleased
Comment: This was my first time to partition a drive. I am an experienced user and it still took me a few tries to get it. Acronis has received great reviews and this product performed as advertised. I am pleased.

Summary: Did Exactly What I Needed
Comment: This software worked perfectly for me. My aging, but serviceable, VIAO desktop with XP came with a small c: partition and a much larger d: partition. The c: partition was so full that I could not download large files or install new programs. In fact, I had to delete some stuff just to get the Acronis software installed. The Acronis wizard to resize partitions was very simple -- a couple of mouse clicks, adjust a slider to specify how much space to transfer from the d: partition to the c: partition, another mouse click, and sit back and watch it get done. It solved my problem and added a couple of more years to my desktop.
I haven't used the many other functions available, but I can say that the resize function is robust enough to compensate for my initial mistake. On my first try at using the resize wizard I hit cancel midway through, which was taking a big chance. I had forgotten to turn off my screen saver, which may or may not have made a difference, and I had not adjusted the space allocation slider, which would have transferred way too much space to the c: partition. The program continued with step 1 of the resize function by taking away 40 gigs of space from the d: partition before recognizing the cancel request. When I checked the partitions, I found that the c: partition had not been increased in size (step 2 of the algorithm), but the d: partition was now missing 40 gigs. I ran the resize wizard again, this time specifying that the d: partition be increased by 40 gigs, but when it asked which partition to take the 40 gigs from, I left the boxes unchecked and hoped for the best. It worked perfectly. The Acronis software took the 40 gigs from unallocated disk space and reassigned it to the d: partition, thus returning my system to its original configution. Finally, I ran the resize wizard again with the screen saver off and the space allocation slider properly adjusted, and it worked exactly as I described in the first paragraph. So in spite of my best efforts to screws things up, this software did exactly what I needed done.

Summary: Did what I wanted it to do
Comment: I have a newer ACER laptop. ACER creates four partitions on this notebook (and others, with two partitions "hidden"), most notably a C: drive for applications and a D: drive for data. I, personally, have never liked multiple partitions and always have more apps than data. So, after a few months, the app partition was filling and the data partition was not. If I could have my way, I would have only ONE partition, a C: drive. For backup of this ACER, I use an external drive and Acronis True Image s/w. This s/w saves a complete image of EVERYTHING on the drive, including ALL partitions. I have used Acronis for several years on other computers. Running Vista, things have changed so the old "Norton Partition Magic" doesn't work anymore. Acronis Disk Director s/w claims to work with Vista so I purchased at a good price from an Amazon seller. Desire was to increase the size of the C: drive while decreasing the size of the D:. Left the other two ACER defined partitions alone because I was afraid to mess with them. Before running Disk Director, created an image of the whole drive with Acronis True Image just in case. Change in partititioning was successful although there were a few scarey moments when Acronis said it had to "repair" something. Bottom line, Aconis Disk Director worked and this seller provided a better value for this s/w than some others.
