Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Macrium Reflect internally to create drive image backups of our computers and servers. We also advise our clients on the selection and use of Macrium Reflect to protect their businesses. Macrium deserves our recommendation for our customers because it is more intuitive and less complicated that many other similar applications.

Pros and Cons

  • Clear interface for creating drive image backups
  • Reliable, every day backups
  • Accessible log showing successful backups and any failures
  • Creates differential backups that are small in size
  • Fast, easy method for recovering individual files or folders from an image backup
  • Capability to create an image file to restore directly to a cloud computer
  • Use a different default naming pattern for backup files
  • Support for Linux

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Macrium Reflect takes SQL database continuous backups every 2 hours and takes server volume backups and stores them in our repository to virtualize the image, mount it, or recover files.

Pros and Cons

  • 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
  • Has ransomware protection that could be better at letting users configure exeptions

Likelihood to Recommend

Macrium Reflect creates synthetic full images for fast recovery in case of disaster. It also works pretty well on creating SQL server database backups. It can send a report of taken backups and failures to get users' attention if backups are being taken. It has a good management interface called Macrium Site Manager that connects to installed agents on different servers and has 1 site management configuration for all site servers.

Support Rating

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.
