Likelihood to Recommend EaseUs Todo Backup is well suited for the Branch Office and small to the medium business network. The software is powerful enough to meet most of the demands of these less complex environments. However, it may not provide the bells and whistles of enterprise software designed for highly virtualized environments.

Macrium Reflect is one of the best partition backup applications available in the market. It can also clone drives in addition to making images of partitions and has a very useful feature of creating a bootable recovery drive for restoring partition(s) in case the OS is not booting. There are also different products for varying needs of the end user- Macrium Reflect Server, Workstation, etc. I have restored my system without any errors many times with Macrium.

The software also runs in the Windows Pre-install Environment (Windows PE) if the machine crashes. Of course, you need to have backed up the drive first! Backups from the whole OS down to single files is available. Backup to CD/DVD, SSD and HDD are all supported. Read full review Macrium Software (Paramount Software)

Has ransomware protection that could be better at letting users configure exeptions Read full review Likelihood to Renew EaseUS Todo Backup is a superb software that does what it claims without the user needing a degree in computer science. Its plain user interface belies a lot of functionality that logically "guides" the user to making local and remote (cloud) backups of their important data. Additionally, the secure encryption of backups is just one less thing to worry about.

We have not been opening tickets for support from Macrium at the moment, only for licencing issues, but good attention and fast response by the support team. They respond pretty fast to our emails and fixed our issues giving us a good explanation of our case without any complications. Due to the good functionality of the software we have not opened a ticket for support in years.

It is not as advanced as the enterprise solution, but it provides the right mix of features and functionality to meet the needs of the average small business network.

Veeam offers Veeam Agent for Microsoft Windows, a product we also install and use. It compares favorably with Macrium Reflect; however, for small firms and individual wanting an added cloud backup of their full hard drive, Macrium wins out in requiring less cloud storage space by a significant margin. ShadowProtect is a rock solid competitor with a higher price and no free version. It is highly dependable, but more complicated to install and set up. The number of technical issues and quality of technical support have ruled out Acronis products. MSP360 Backup has impressive technology, but we encountered issues with restore times and full drive image restores.
