User Testimonials
	Macrium Reflect	Veeam Data Cloud for Microsoft Entra ID
Likelihood to Recommend	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) The free version of Macrium Reflect is licensed for both commercial and personal use. It works well on MS Windows computers, but cannot back up servers, where a paid version is required. The free version does full and differential backups, but not incremental as do the paid versions. If a large volume of files are added every day, a paid version would be more suitable as it supports incremental backups. The Macrium Reflect server version is very suitable for backing up physical servers. Incentivized Wells Anderson CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
Pros	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) Virtualize images to restore services Mount backup images to restore files Takes incremental backups pretty quick compared to other software Creates synthetic full images well Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
Cons	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) The program could reduce a bit the space it takes for its backups. It should be more affordable. Incentivized Chaim Moykopf Researcher Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
Usability	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) This application is very simple to use and works great for its intended purposes. It's my go-to when I need to create or manage a singular disk or volume image. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
Support Rating	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) 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.

Return on Investment	Macrium Software (Paramount Software) Impossible to specify. Incentivized Chaim Moykopf Researcher Read full review	Veeam Software No answers on this topic
