### "Not bad for one-off or simple situations"

April 4, 2018

3.0

Pros

Easy to set up, not difficult to choose what to back up. Doesn't take up a lot of resources on endpoints.

Cons

Can bog endpoints down when backups are running. Not a solution for enterprises or large organizations, there are better out there that are more efficient and have better restore capabilities.

### "Very incredible backup tool "

April 30, 2018

5.0

Pros

I needed a tool to make a clone of my drive so i did not have to reimage my OS when i was transferring to a new drive. This did it and there has been zero issues with the OS.

Cons

None. It did what i needed it to do for cloning my drive. Would like to recommend for the people who needs to do loads of back ups or cloning.

### "Software you should definitely check out"

November 28, 2011

4.0

At the beginning Backup and Recovery required some effort to understand the program but now I am convinced that this is a great software if you have a large amount of computers to manage. The software can backup laptops and other storage devices without problems and the data is recovered after some minutes already. Where other applications take hours or days, Backup and Recovery finishes very quick. A useful feature is that the software allows you to compress your backups in order to optimize storage space.

Pros

The software recovers your data without any fail.

Cons

Quite complicated for data backup beginners.

January 10, 2018

4.0

Pros

It was extremely easy to use and it made backups simple. The user interface was web-based but laid out very well.

### "great experience, easy to set up, easy to manage"

February 28, 2018

4.0

Pros

Easy to use software, just install on a lot of machines, and manage those backups as you want, easy restore and so on

Cons

The price should be more affordable for small business, like 2-3 stores operated by a few employes. It should help and secure them for all malware and protect the business data

### "Experiences on Acronis Backup"

October 25, 2018

4.0

Pros

More polished than open source counterparts. Somewhat easy to use, however when talking on the phone to actual person performing the operation some things were bit problematic. Software gets job done and that is really important.

Cons

Version that I used cannot resize target partition where to migrate backup image. Would have been helpful feature.

5.0

Pros

Very easy to setup cloning and backup schedules. Was able to successfully clone a dying HDD to a new drive with an easy setup overnight.
