Summary: Does not install on win 98se
Review: I tried to install this on a win98se system and even though I installed and uninstalled 3 times, I kept getting the message can not initialize, and modules not found each time I started the hunk of junk. The only somewhat uniques thing about my win98 system is the windows directory is windows2. I don't think they tested this very well.

Summary: Crashed my computer
Review: I'm a software consultant so I run brand-name software on an IBM Thinkpad computer with Windows2000 and a vanilla but loaded system. Bad News: Completely hosed my system when it went to make the CD. After that, no files came up in Add/Remove programs. Internet was suddenly read/only. Had to reformat my hard drive / replace my OS. After doing that, we put in CD to restore data and it crashed my system completely. So we had to reformat again. Luckily I had everything backed up by hand on an external hard disk (the point of buying this software in the first place). While it is obviously my configuration or they would be out of business, what a nightmare! Good News: I had no interest in tech support, just getting my money back. Rarely have I had such a customer-friendly experience of getting a refund.

Summary: Got it working?
Review: Loaded in the program and tried to re-boot. Couldn't. Contacted Acronis by email. Fast response. Two files replaced in safe mode. Didn't work. Two more. They worked. But, the rest of the story. While this was going on, I tried the program on my unused backup computer. Didn't work. Even the replacement files didn't work. I have a friend who said he would try it. It didn't work. Not even with the new files. I am keeping my old backup program backing up the TrueImage, just in case.

Summary: Outstanding Features
Review: Priced less than its competitors, Acronis True Image 6.0 delivers outstanding features at a surprisingly low price. True Image's ability to write to recordable DVDs and its image creation of system disks within Windows will tip the scale for some. But if you're looking for scheduling features, partition creation, and disk-to-disk copying, stick with PowerQuest Drive Image.

Summary: Excellent backup ¿ all data is now protected¿
Review: The application works as advertised!
I've installed it on a Windows Home XP, created a bootable recovery CD (there is also a bootable floppy option) and proceeded to backup and compress my main hard disk to a secondary one.
I was able to mount the backup volume like a virtual drive and navigate the volume. This offers an additional option over a full restore, just pick a file(s) or directory and copy it.
I suggest not backing up to the same hard disk but to a second physical one, not to be confused with an additional drive created with a partition.

Summary: Great service.
Review: This is the third time I am writing. I had all kinds of problems running this program. But the email response was quick and solved the problems. The program is working well. I mention that I tried it on my backup computer and that I couldn't get it to work there either. Even though you are suppose to install it on only one computer, they helped me get it running on that one also. They responed in less than 24 hours.

Summary: Outstanding software is a lifesaver
Review: This software is outstanding. I never thought I'd need to use imaging software, but bought it for the purpose of helping me migrate between old and new disk drives. Little did I know that the images that I created would be used to completely restore my system when it crashed a few weeks later due to a nasty XP IP stack problem (another story entirely). Both imaging and restoral was extremely fast (a 15GB restoration took less than 30 minutes -- to a completely bootable, operational machine)! Both the imaging process and the restoral were absolutely flawless with True Image. Furthermore, the software is extremely well executed, making the myriad choices that are required to to specify the backup/restore operations a piece of cake. The ease of use and attention to detail present in this software bring to mind other classic "must have" utilities, such as Power Quest's Partition Magic and WinZip. Now, if only companies like Symantec, Network Associates, and Microsoft would follow suit... I cannot speak highly enough of Acronis True Image. It is truly exceptional software that I will not do without in the future. Well worth the price.
