Works on Windows 10 Without Issues. Great Backup and Cloning Software

Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2021

The Amazon image is deceiving. You don't get a box. You get an optical disc taped in an official Acronis sleeve with the product 'short-key' on the back. I recommend you login to your acronis.com account, then enter the short key at the acronis url mentioned on the back of the sleeve into your account. From there, download the latest build of Acronis 2017 and don't bother using the included disc.

This product does need Internet for activation, and can be installed on 3 different computers at once. Thankfully, Acronis makes it easy to deactivate as well so you can move between computers if you upgrade something or need it on a different computer when all your activations are used up.

As for the software itself, it works well. It is the full version of the Acronis backup software that is distributed on many hard drive manufacture websites. With this version you can schedule backups at various intervals, and restore either the whole image or particular files in the same or different locations you desire. Acronis.com also provides a bootable iso that allows you to boot from the iso to restore from a backup when the computer is not able to enter Windows.

If you don't need advanced cloud features or other interconnected tools, you really don't need the 'latest and greatest' version. This does what you need it to, so getting this version saves you some money. If you decide later that you do want the latest and greatest, Acronis offers an upgrade discount for the latest version.

Make sure you download the 2017 version

Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2017

Yes, this is just an activation key. It has instructions for installing the software from the site but it sent you to the free download for the 2016 version. Save some time and navigate their website to find the free download for the 2017 version. You will have to do this anyway to update the 2016 if you choose to follow the direction on the card since the activation key only works for the 2017 version. I found this out the hard way. Once I downloaded the 2017 version (which just did an update but took about as long as the 2016 download), the activation key was accepted. With this being the first time I used imaging backup software, the menu layouts are fairly easy to follow and the brief information for each menu button in nice. The online "help" content is a little less descriptive than I would like on a couple of topics but easy to use and understand overall. The first backup was quick compared to the WD backup drive software I've been using plus it imaged the OS, applications and drivers which is what I really was after. Hoping I don't have to give add more to this review of how the reinstallation of my drive goes (would prefer it as an unused insurance).

Not a good backup solution for most customers!

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2017

The software only worked on one of our two computers. I researched the issues I experienced and learned that I was not alone with the problem. I am not inclined to purchase something and then spend hours and then days trying every technical trick in the book to make it work! If you are a computer tech and have loads of time you "might" get this program to work on more than one computer, I was not able to achieve that! This is not an easy product for the huge majority of the backup customers out there. Stay away form frustration!

Software works well after hickup with license activation issues

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2017

I spent all morning (3.5 hours) installing the software.
The installation went smoothly and took all of 2 minutes but license activation took 3.5 hours, a chat session with customer support and many unfruitful downloads and installs, several searches and more time wasted checking out windows firewall and router settings. The problem as it turned out is poor documentation on Acronis part. My wasted time could have been avoided if I know the following information (or was told this information when I contact customer service):
1. Purchaser is given a partial serial "number" needed to activate license(s). He must: Create an account with Acronis; Register his partial serial number. A complete serial number will be displayed in his account and emailed to him. This is what he must enter into the activation window.
2. My purchased version (True Image 2017) has a bug that prevented the whole serial number to be typed in.

I downloaded the patch to fix issue #2 explained above, install the software and activate it without any issue.

I had been using it for a few days and I'm happy with its performance. The tool interface is simple, intuitive and I have no problem. I find it working as advertised.
