I think if you could not actually recover the Windows system drive – when you needed to – I think you have answered your own question on whether it’s worth it to upgrade. I’ve used Acronis since roughly 2009 and it has always done what I needed until this most recent release.Īs mentioned else ware, I was unable to recover my WindC Drive using Acronis 2019 despite having backups on my D and external drives.

I’ve also always had success using a USB drive as the boot source.

There is an attractive feature in the 2020 version (it might be in there in earlier versions) that takes about 2Gb of an external HD to make it bootable, runs the Acronis software on boot-up and allows access to the backup on that drive or any other drive attached to the system.

I’ve uninstalled the upgrade and gone back to the 2020 version which has been working fine for the past year. The installation ground on for hours and when complete I could not access the user interface to Acronis! I found some software on their website which rescued me and I quickly disabled the “protection”. Secondly, the installation took my computer to a dead stop while disabling all applications that accessed external services because it was “protecting me”.

Was I wrong! First of all the “upgrade” moved me from a perpetual license to a subscription basis. I thought the discount to upgrade to 2021 looked like a bargain. There is no shame is staying put on a version that works for you.

Have to assume that Acronis or Macrium or whoever – should have mastered the basics by now – so I would never spend any more money on this types of app unless there was a quantum leap in performance regarding the size and speed in which they can take a full system image. All the bells and whistles and extra flashy doodads won’t make a bit of difference if your backups are not accurate and useable.

Have learned for almost all of my software to focus on what’s important. As long as the application is creating solid backups that you can actually rely on when needed – it’s doing it’s job. Remember what this is at the end of the day – backup software. Even with Macrium (which had little to no initial incentive for me to move from v6 to v7) – I waited about a year to make the move. There is no real value in constantly paying for upgrades that offer little value. Like a few others in here – I used to be an Acronis user – but made the switch to Macrium long ago. This reply was modified 2 years, 8 months ago by alQamar. I do not want to go into detail any further. I am in still in the hope the Acronis Team is working on these. Many of the security issues reported for ATIH 2020 / 2021, especially for the new antivirus do not seem to be addressed as per today.In some cases new computers are not listed in the dashboard. You cannot rely on the backup status and in consequence the email notifications even for fresh installations.

Despite many tickets the issues for different ATIH customers the Acronis Dashboard backend issues are not solved.

the subscription version other than the perpetual version will disable Windows Defender without a note in favor for Acronis Cyberprotection.

ATIH 2021 has not only changed from tib to tibx, with some of the limitations lifted in 2021 that were present in 2020 when it was introed.

It is not clear if the current WD version includes the bloatware that comes with the purchased version of Acronis 2021.Īs an Acronis MVP I would like you to know that 2021 is a generally good release with some caveats to be aware
