Summary: Supports SATA drives
Comment: I have been using backup software since PowerQuest's Disk Image 7. When I could not find an update after several years, I purchased Norton's Ghost. It was then I understood why Disk Image had no upgrades, they had been purchased by Symantec.
I used Ghost 9 for sometime and both of these programs performed well. However, periodically, a recovery could not occur because of problems with the backup.
I purchased a new computer 18 months ago. It came with SATA hard drives, not IDE drives. You wouldn't think this would be a problem until you need to boot from a CD or floppy because the computer will not boot.
Most programs will not boot SATA drives and you get Microsoft's vague blue screen of death (BSOD). It does not say why the computer will not boot, that would be too helpful.
After many problems and managing to save my work through my own creativity after that problem. I set out to find a program that would boot my computer as well as back it up.
In addition, the older version of Ghost would never successfully complete my backup after more than 12 hours of trying.
My first thought was to go with a later version of Ghost. I visited Norton's site and tried to determine if SATA drives were supported. I found many complaints of SATA problems but nothing that specifically stated they were supported.
Hesitant to waste money on something I wasn't sure would function and based on experiences of bad backups from older versions, I opted to try this software.
The low price was a plus in purchasing decisions. My first Disk Image program was three times this!
I received my copy yesterday and installed it after first ensuring the disc could boot my computer into some sort of operating environment. It did.
Installation went well and I managed to get a backup completed in about 6 hours (this is 250+ gig of actual used space) to a network drive.
I experienced an error the first time I tried, but that was my fault. I set my firewall to allow nothing through so the software couldn't access the network drive. A second try was successful.
Imagine my surprise when I surfed to the backup and found I could open it with no special software inside Windows Explorer if I needed a file!
With Ghost and Drive Image, you had to use their software AND if you made your backup to disc (DVD or CD) it had to repeatedly ask you to remove and install them many, many, many times before it would show the backup. This was a refreshing change.
I have not had any occasion yet to use customer support, and if I have problems where I do and experience issues, I will update this. I rarely have need to contact customer support for software issues, though.
If nothing else, it is better to use this than not have any backup at all in the event of a failure in your system.
Which is worse, $29 for a product that you get a backup from or losing everything on your computer?

Summary: works well so far
Comment: I've used it to clone two disks -- both system disks, one XP aand one Vista -- with no problems at all. The backups that I do with it go smoothly as well.

Summary: It works well for the most part
Comment: I have purchased two copies of this product and have them installed on both a XP and Vista machine. I have used it several times on both to restore my computers using both the acronis secure zone and a external USB hard drive. I've used the boot menu and Acronis boot disk I created to begin the restore. I did a complete restore to a hard drive from the external USB after deliberatly making my hard drive unbootable. That part of Acronis has worked flawlessly. I have run into some problems actually creating the secure zone on my hard drive. It took me several attempts to create one as I kept getting an error message and after rebooting....still no secure zone. I ended up creating it using the boot cd which seemed the only way to do it that would actually work. Other than that I find the program easy to use. I backup to both the secure zones as well as my external drives. I have not tried to create any dvd backups so I can not commment on that. Overall I would reccomend this program. It can be a real life saver. Especially if you can pick it up for $30 as you can here.

Summary: So Support From Acronis
Comment: True Image 11 will not clone my 80gb hard drive onto another larger hard drive. Both drives are in perfect working order. I have written to Acronis twice. The first (one month ago) was ignored, the second (10 days ago) told me they were busy and not to ask again because it creates unnecessary paperwork.
It seems to work for functions other than cloning.
Fortunately, I only wasted $29.

Summary: Worthless support
Comment: 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.
