We use Acronis True Image as a part of our redundant data backup plan to ensure that our accounting and other business data is being protected. We backup locally on a USB drive, on our corporate Microsoft OneDrive, and also using Acronis for cloud backup. We have experienced ransomware attacks twice within the past several years. We implemented Acronis after the first one and used it to restore our data after the second one happened.
- Automated scheduled backup
- Intuitive process for data restoration
- Could use more functional backup of mapped network drives, this has occasionally been a problem
I use it specifically to image user computers when attempting to preserve data after a security or virus/malware related incident. I also use it heavily to grab an image from damaged hard drives so I can attempt to lay it down on a new hard drive. It has worked time and time again.
- Grabbing images from hard drives.
- Cloning hard drives.
- Backing data up.
- They need to go back to the way the software worked and looked in 2010....GUI is different now. I have opted to use 2010 due to this in a lot of cases.
- Wish cloning was more streamlined, like Samsung has for cloning HDDs to their new EVO SSDs.
- Wish there was more included in their rescue media feature.

Acronis True Image - Excellent Backup Solution!
I use Acronis True Image to individual backup PCs in our company. It is a cost-effective solution for us. Acronis has been extremely reliable, and we have used it for restores multiple times. The ability to password protect and encrypt the backups are great features. The interface is simple, intuitive, and easy to use.
- Reliability
- Ease of use
- Enhanced user interface

Can't go wrong with Acronis
We use it for service refreshing of new and repaired laptops. Super easy to use. Can have any IT staff use it and get the job done. While we limit who can use the software, it could be used by any mildly technically savvy staff, especially with a few instructions. I have never had an image problem.
- Works each time, I haven't had the cloning issues that programs use.
- Cost effective.
- The pricing could be a little better.

When it comes to making images, Acronis is your answer
I use True Image to clone computers with same hardware configuration as well as to transfer data from one storage media to another (replacing HD with SSD).
- Very fast transfers.
- Easy to use interface.
- More flexibility to resize partitions while copying.
Following a disastrous system crash with my previous computer, I decided to purchase Acronis True Image 2018, though I now have the 2019 version, to begin backing up my system and, more importantly, my working files. I tend to employ a sizable and diverse catalog of productivity software, so if my workstation dies, everything must be reinstalled from scratch. I don't like to reinstall from scratch. With that in mind, TrueImage is synonymous with peace-of-mind, and it does work. I can't afford to lose my work, and this backup software has saved me twice.
So, in short, True Image 2019 remains a proven parachute.
So, in short, True Image 2019 remains a proven parachute.
- The Incremental File Backup is particularly potent. I wanted to have a backup experience as closely matched to the Mac Time Machine as possible, and True Image does it quite nicely.
- True Image can save to my network drives, which means that it has no difficulty in backing up system images and files to a server.
- I'm pleased with the Rescue Media builder functionality. Usefully, for a system image, it will save an ISO, a Windows Image File (WIM), or save the image to a USB drive. The restore process is fairly straightforward.
- Upon a system restore after a crash, the program was able to see my server but was unable to complete the process. However, once I copied everything to a detachable USB hard disk, it had no further problems.
- I'd love to see an exact copy of the functionality of Time Machine, except on a PC. Seamless, nearly flawless. It's already pretty decent, though.
- Okay, Acronis, you've knocked it out of the park already, but ...it's time to offer some hardware! Develop your own secure version of the Time Capsule that can be plugged into the network. It will only do one thing, and it will be the best at what it does.
Acronis True Image is used for disaster recovery. It is utilized for cloning soon to fail hard drives and solid state drives. It is used by our IT and service technician. Cloning resolves the issue of longer downtime, since it prevents us from having to do the software re-installation from scratch.
- Easy to use.
- Fast cloning.
- Rarely give us problems, unless the storage is the problem.
- Intuitive interface.
- Easy to use tools.
- On the summary for the cloning, it should show the disk model of the source and target disk.
- Still, on the summary, the before and after should specify which disk: the source or target.
- They need to make cloning a part of the main menu, aside from Backup and recovery.

Outstanding for an Imaging Software
Acronis True Image is being used for backup/recovery for users that we provide services for. It's being used by the information technology department currently, mainly because this department is most suitable to use this software. It also helps our business in many ways; it saves us money and time and most importantly, it saves the data of valuable users at the organization.
- Good software to used for images operating systems; it supports Windows, Mac, etc.
- This software can start booting from CD, DVD, USB or from your network.
- The software has 30 days of free license (trial) to be able to do all the tests that you require.
- Very easy tool to use, GUI is also user-friendly.
- I would like the price to be a little less, although I understand that it is a reasonable price.
- While backing up the system image, the computer becomes a bit slow.
