User Testimonials
	Mirror Backup	Macrium Reflect
Likelihood to Recommend	Gammadyne Corporation No answers on this topic	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) 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.

Alternatives Considered	Gammadyne Corporation No answers on this topic	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) Previously, I used Acronis as my company purchased licensing for years. It's great, but I found Macrium Reflect more straightforward, and the free version has been perfect for personal use. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
