For some time now I have a video editing computer running the 64 bit with Windows 7 Professional. Are installed as system-board a Samsung SSD 256 GB as per two 1.5TB HDDs. As told me was I can not use my old True Image 2010 on my new computer, I have the Acronis True Image 2014 gained me.
From all structurally, the completely new structure compared to my old version I was immediately impressed. Everything is very plain and simple, so that even a novice "really" just so should handle. It should be mentioned that you also should take once the manual at hand, whether now as .pdf file or in printed form before itself (as a rookie) easy to work .. to make the various settings and functions also to understand.
Create weekly backups on external HDDs and have at the very beginning when I had my computer re-creates a backup of my SSD and after I that I need for video and image editing had all programs installed. When I then (there was my new computer just 3 weeks old) shut down the computer a number of Windows is not installed to backups, with the usual message ... please while installing the computer account, etc.
When I booted the computer then again, nothing wrong, some programs could not be started, the desktop background was no longer the instrument deposited by me picture and the screen resolution is no longer true. So conclusion ... something must have gone wrong while installing the Windows updates.
I then summarily Acronis eingelgt touch boot CD, from which I have gebotet the computer, play my created backup of my external HDD back to the Samsung SSD and after less than 10 minutes it was again all OK - the installation of the Windows Updates has luckily works at the second attempt.
My conclusion to Acronis True Image 2014 .... it works exactly as reliable as my old from 2010, which I have used on my old computer always the best satisfaction. Nevertheless, I prefer a star because of the very poor service from Acronis .. as a result of information I have received part of friends like from personal experience. If you want to get in touch by e-mail with the support order specifically to obtain information going from any of the stored on the Acronis website information out ... waiting for answering mails .. very very long, because if you ever get an answer , Similarly, with regard to telephone support (the once was free) requires Acronis money today and you have to acquire a kind of ticket. A large number of companies in which I am customer for many years offer a free service (tel Support) at ... as For example. Paragon also makes. Since Acronis should think times about it.
